The Marvelous Companion is a translation of a collection of thirty-four stories of the previous lives of the Buddha Jatakas spoken by the Enlightened One himself and assembled and retold by the first-century master Aryashura. Aryasura's The Marvelous Companion is a wonderful antidote for anyone who has grown weary with 'compassion fatigue'. Based on thirty-four beautifully written tales of the Buddha's former lives said to have been related by the Buddha himself this book seeks to convince us that love and compassion are appropriate in even the most extreme circumstances. Whether threatened by man-eating ogres blood-sucking demons robbers or just monkeys determined to irritate him the Buddha-to-be always responds with restraint and kindness. Truly magical is the response of his mischievous assailants in the face of this kindness. To a man and a monster! their hearts are converted their wicked natures vanish and they are awakened to the awesome possibility of love.What is so valuable about this book is that it deliberately focuses on our most entrenched and cynical ideas about compassion being 'impractical' and 'sentimental' and suggests that it is really our 'hard-headed' ideas that are naive: only unconditional love and compassion have the power to bring us happiness and to solve the problems of the world. What a world it would be if everyone read this book! It is perhaps the most inspiring book I have ever read. Dharma Publishing, hardcover
