अष्टांग मार्ग भगवान बुद्ध की प्रमुख शिक्षाओं में से एक है जो दुखों से मुक्ति पाने एवं तथ्य-ज्ञान के साधन के रूप में बताया गया है। अष्टांग मार्ग के सभी ‘मार्ग’ , ‘सम्यक’ शब्द से आरम्भ होते हैं (सम्यक = अच्छी या सही या सत्य)। बौद्ध प्रतीकों में प्रायः अष्टांग मार्गों को धर्मचक्र के आठ ताड़ियों (spokes) द्वारा निरूपित किया जाता है।

Londoner Dennis Lingwood realized at the age of 16 that he was a Buddhist. Conscripted during World War II, he went on Army service to India, where he stayed on to become a Buddhist monk with the name Sangharakshita. As hippies flocked eastward in the Sixties, he returned to England to establish the Friends of the Western Buddhist Order. This book, written by one of his leading disciples, tells Sangharakshita’s story.
The image of the Buddha, cross-legged and meditating, appears increasingly in magazines and on television in the West. But who was the Buddha?
Here we see the Buddha as a historical figure, a warrior prince searching for the truth; in the context of the evolution of the human race, as the pinnacle of human perfection; and as an archetype.
