Lord Buddha was an enlightened figure and a great son of India. He left his royal comforts in order to emancipate the suffering humanity for all types of sufferings. His teachings and practices are based on Hindu treatises and philosophy, but he was bold enough to discord those precepts which did not fit into the slot of his avowed Philosophy. This book deals with life of Buddha, his teachings, practices, philosophy and spread of Buddhism to offer countries Zen...apart from comparing Buddhism with other religions of the world. In a way this book embraces all the facets of Buddhism, as it gives a first hand insight into Buddhism.
