Short introduction to the The Avadānaśataka, a collection of 100 stories in Sanskrit prose and verse. According to the latest research by Demoto, it was composed probably in the fourth or fifth century CE, perhaps by members of the Sarvāstivāda school, and revised by the Mūlasarvāstivāda up to the seventh century.
