Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Buddhism Buddhism is being eagerly studied in the West, and there is no dearth of books upon it. Yet a brief history of its amazing developments may prove useful in helping those who are not experts to a sane view Of it, and to a knowledge alike of its strength and of its weakness. It is for such readers that this little book has been written it avoids technicalities as far as possible, and ignores many great problems, seeking to give a Simple yet accurate and sympathetic account of the religion Of Gautama Buddha and its developments. Six years spent in close contact with the peoples of Burma and Ceylon have convinced me that what ever it may have done in its Golden Age, and strong as its hold still is, the Buddhism of today in all its many forms is almost powerless to effect either individual or social regeneration. I believe that a sympathetic and open-minded study of it and its history will convince the student that this is so, and will send the Christian back to the study of his own religion with a new understanding of it and a new appreciation of its wonderful power to meet human needs and to satisfy human aspirations.

Book Synopsis The Way of the Buddha (Classic Reprint) by : Herbert Baynes
Download or read book The Way of the Buddha (Classic Reprint) written by Herbert Baynes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Way of the Buddha The object of this little book is to give the reader a succinct account of an Eastern sage whose doctrine of the Path has been accepted by millions of the human race, and whose influ ence is still felt at the ends of the earth. What is generally understood by Buddhism will be found to differ greatly from the way of emancipation here set forth. And for this reason Unlike all other religions, Buddhism began with out God and without prayer, and ended in be coming a most elaborate system of polytheism with a superstitious multiplication of collects. Up to the time of Asoka, about 250 b.o., it seems to have remained comparatively pure; but by the thirteenth century a.d., when the revival of Brahmanism drove it from India, it had assumed in other countries so many new features as to be hardly recognisable. Nor should this be a matter for great surprise. When an essentially Aryan religion or system of philosophy is transplanted to Turanian lands it is not to be expected that it will remain unchanged. The contrast between the teaching of the Christ and of His apostles, and the Christianity of Rome in the Middle Ages is indeed great, but the difference between the Buddhism of Tibet and the Dharma of Sakya Muni 1s greater still. The history of the faith In all the lands m which it has taken root is far too vast a subject for our present purpose, but a general outline of its rise and fall in Aryavarta.

Book Synopsis The Gospel of Buddha by : Paul Carus
Download or read book The Gospel of Buddha written by Paul Carus and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-14 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1894 this book was one of the first introductions of Buddhism to the West. In particular the topic is approached from a Christian point of view, showing parallels between the teachings of the two faiths and between their respective holy figures. This edition contains the beautiful original images and is often recommended to Christians wishing to learn more about the teachings of Buddhism. Paul Carus had an obvious and deep respect for Buddhism and other Eastern traditions and that shines through in this work. It contains fine descriptions of the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, as well as many parables of the Buddha. Where documents have been translated, while they would doubtless have been translated differently these days, they have been done so with great sensitivity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Creed of Buddha That the problem has not yet been even ap proximately solved is my sincere conviction. I have read many treatises on Buddhism; but I have yet to find the writer who, when expounding the philosophy (as distinguished from the ethical system) of Buddha, teaches as one having au thority and not as the Scribes. The indisputable fact that Buddha himself kept silence with regard to the ultimate realities and ultimate issues of life, shows that the task of interpreting his creed is one for criticism (in the widest and deepest sense of the word) rather than for scholarship.
