The story Gandatindu Jataka is one of the Jataka tales. Jataka tales are part of the canonical literature of Theravada Buddhism and are traditionally written in the Pali language.

Jataka tales recount stories of the previous lives of the Buddha, in both human and animal form. They are part of the Khuddaka Nikaya, a collection within the Sutta Pitaka of the Pali Canon.

Pali is an Indo-Aryan language, closely related to Sanskrit, and is the liturgical language of Theravada Buddhism. While Buddhist texts also exist in Sanskrit (Mahayana Buddhism), the Jataka collection is primarily associated with the Pali Canon.
