I am a devotee in a Japanese body living in Tokyo, and I used to watch

a TV show Monkey Magic when I was in a high school around late 1970's.

> ancient Sanskrit text or vedic scriptures?

 

Of course there are many versions of the Monkey Magic. The one I used

to watch is the version where a Japanese POP singer Ohba Kumiko used

to play the role of Tripitaka.

 

The main section of the story where the priest left China for India to

bring back the scriptures going through a lot of trouble is based on a

historical fact.

 

The scriptures were not Vedic. It is a Buddhist scripture. That's all

I know.

 

Hoping this meets you in the best of health.

 

Your servant,

Damodara Dasa
