THE BUDDHA AND HIS TEACHINGS

NARADA

Buddhist Missionary Society Malaysia

Fourth Edition 1988

 (738 Pages)

 

INTRODUCTION

Many valuable books have been written by Eastern and Western scholars, Buddhists and non- Buddhists alike, to present the life and teachings of the Buddha to those who are interested in Buddhism.

Amongst them one of the most popular. Works is still The Light of Asia by Sir Edwin Arnold. Many Western truth-seekers were attracted to Buddhism by this world-famous poem.

Congratulations of Eatern and Western Buddhists are due to the learned writers on their laudable efforts to en-lighten the readers on the Buddha-Dhamma.

This new treatise is another humble attempt made by a member of the Order of the Sangha, based on the Pali Texts, commentaries and traditions prevalling in Buddhist countries, especially in Ceylon.

The first part of the book deals with the Life of the Buddha, the second with the Dhamma, the Pali term for His Doctrine.

The Buddha-Dhamma is a moral and philosophical system which expounds a unique path of Enlightenmenht, and is noit a subject to be studied from a mereacademic standpoint.
