Fa Hien - Paperback Comic Book

This is a story of Chinese monk named Fa Hien, who undertook a painfully long and arduous journey to India 1600 years ago in pursuit of knowledge-to seek the true teachings of Buddha. It is the story of a man of immense courage, sincerity and faith.

After coming to India in 399 AD During the Gupta rule, Fa Hien toured the country extensively and recorded his observations. His accounts mention the Indian socio-economic and political aspects only marginally, but are objective and authentic. Fa Hien’s records, therefore, form an important source of Indian history during the fifth century.
