Anutpada

Anuttara-pada is a type of story or poem in ancient India. It typically tells a story of death and rebirth, usually from the point of view of an animal or other creature. Anuttara-pada is written in a special type of language called Sanskrit. When you read anuttara-pada, it might sound like it’s full of big, fancy words. But actually, each word has a specific meaning and each phrase usually has a deeper meaning. In anuttara-pada, the animals and creatures in the stories represent different things – like courage, strength, and wisdom. So, even though it’s a story, it also teaches us important lessons about life.
