Literatures Biography of Buddha. The results revealed that the Literature
Biography of Buddha was based on the Tripitaka as a basis for compilation.
From the 5th to 6th centuries, Buddhist monks of Sarvastivas had composed
Lavitvistas. At the end of the 19th century, the monks of Lanna had written
the Samparavibak in the form of Ceylon. Later, when Lanna Buddhism
received Buddhism from the city of Mogadoma in the 20th century, it
appeared Chinmahanitan and Patomsompotikata that developed the
content of the Samparavibak. In the 25th century, Westerners who ruled India had compiled two biographies of the Buddha. Those included “The
Light of Asia” and “The Mahayana Buddhist History in Tibet.” At that time,
Buddhism in Siam, Thammayut Nikaya was occured. This concept of
Buddhism history had influenced, which attempted to interpret the miracle
as a science by Somdet pramaha samanajao krompraya vajirayarn warorot.
