Description
According to Wikipedia: "Barlaam and Josaphat or Joasaph is a Christianized version of the story of Siddharta Gautama, who became the Buddha.[1]. In the Middle Ages the two were treated as Christian saints, being entered in the Greek Orthodox calendar on 26 August, and in the Roman Martyrology in the Western Church as "Barlaam and Josaphat" on the date of 27 November.[2] In Eastern Orthodox, in the Russian tradition those two are commemorated on 19 November (corresponding to Gregorian 2 December) .
