This Sinhala recension of the Anagatavamsa, here translated into English for the first time, is but one of the several texts forming a genre of Buddhist apocalyptic literature generated by the Cult of Maitreya in South and South-East Asia. It is a prophetic text revealing a rich religious imagination that focuses upon the advent of the future Buddha in a time when those who have long perserved in the religious quest will gain an opportunity to realise the highest spritual attainment.
