The Lalitavistara Sūtra is a Sanskrit Mahayana Buddhist sūtra that tells the story of Gautama Buddha from the time of his descent from the Tushita heaven until his first sermon in the Deer Park at Sarnath near Varanasi. The title Lalitavistara translates as "The Play in Full" or "Extensive Play," referring to the Mahayana view that the Buddha's last incarnation was not a mundane birth, but a sacred "display" or "performance" given for the benefit of all beings.
