Detailed study of the entire field of Buddhist thought and practice. strong on cultural and historical analysis. an objective by sympathetic appraisal of Buddhism’s major forms. attention to doctrines, teachings, practical aspects of Mahayana Buddhism.
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.
