Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A perennial favorite, Great Disciples of the Buddha is now relaunched in our best-selling Teachings of the Buddha series. Twenty-four of the Buddha's most distinguished disciples are brought to life in ten chapters of rich narration. Drawn from a wide range of authentic Pali sources, the material in these stories has never before been assembled in a single volume. Through these engaging tales, we meet all manner of human beings - rich, poor, male, female, young, old - whose unique stories are told with an eye to the details of ordinary human concerns. When read with careful attention, these stories can sharpen our understanding of the Buddhist path by allowing us to contemplate the living portraits of the people who fulfilled the early Buddhist ideals of human perfection. The characters detailed include: Sariputta Nanda Mahamoggallana Mahakassapa Ananda Isidasi Anuruddha Mahakaccana Angulimala Visakha and many more. Conveniently annotated with the same system of sutta references used in each of the other series volumes, Great Disciples of the Buddha allows the reader to easily place each student in the larger picture of Buddha's life. It is a volume that no serious student of Buddhism should miss.

This book was released on 2022-05-30T22:59:00Z with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Buddhist universe is made up of three primary realms, with several subsidiary planes. The grossest tier is the sense-desire realm, which consists of eleven planes: the hells, the animal kingdom, the sphere of ghosts, the human realm, the sphere of titans, and the six sensuous heavens. #2 The distinction between the two types of disciples is based on their relationship to the goal of Buddhism. The class of ordinary disciples, who are still technically worldlings or commoners, are those who have gone for refuge to the Three Jewels and are devoted to the practice of the Dhamma. However, they have not yet reached the plane where liberation is irreversible. #3 The first stage of awakening is called stream-entry, because it is with this attainment that the disciple can properly be said to have entered the stream of the Dhamma. It is won with the first arising of the vision of the Dhamma and is marked by the eradication of the coarsest three fetters: personality view, the view of a substantial self within the empirical person, doubt in the Buddha and his Teaching, and wrong grasp of rules and vows. #4 The path of arahantship is attained by the elimination of the five subtle fetters that remain unbroken in the non-returner: desire for existence in the form and formless realms, conceit, restlessness, and ignorance. When the path of arahantship arises fully comprehending the Four Noble Truths, ignorance collapses, and all the other residual defilements follow suit.

Book excerpt: This is the extended and annotated edition including * an extensive annotation of more than 10.000 words about the history and basics of Buddhism, written by Thomas William Rhys Davids * an interactive table-of-contents * perfect formatting for electronic reading devices This "Life of Buddha" is not a work of fiction. For the most part it has been relied upon the LALITA-VISTARA.
