4.19

[Jātaka] This translates as "birth stories." This recounts the bodhisattva's practices, the matters formerly performed in past lives. The Prakaraṇāryavācā Śāstra says: "'Past events' refers to the Tathāgata speaking of matters such as the previous lives of holy disciples. 'Birth stories' refers to the Tathāgata speaking of matters corresponding to the bodhisattva's original practices."
