Description of manuscript content:
The text mentions about the story of the Buddha since Prince Siddhartha left the royal palace for seeking the way to be free from suffering. The prince ordained himself as an Ascetic until attaining enlightenment and became the Buddha. The Buddha delivered the first sermon called Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta (setting the Wheel of Dhamma in Motion) to five ascetics at Isipatana Migadaya forest in Benares. After listening to the sermon, the five ascetics attained Sotapanna (Stream-Enterer).
