Hobutsushu
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Hobutsushu (宝物集 "Collection of Treasures?) is a Japanese anthology of setsuwa stories compiled by the monk Tairano Yasuyori in 1179.
The stories take the form of a series of discussions between a Zen monk and an audience, and are intended to guide the reader towards satori.[1] Among the subjects covered are the stories of Rama, derived from Indian and Chinese sources,[2][3] and the fate of Murasaki Shikibu, whom Tairano condemns to hell for publishing fiction.[4]
