  • BUDDHISM - BASICS & BEYOND

ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 6269559642

ISBN-13 ‏ : ‎ 978-6269559640

Buddhism - Basics & Beyond is unique in introducing Buddhism without bias to one lineage or another in a very readable and easily accessible manner. The author has quoted widely from a number of esteemed teachers from Mahayana (including Vajrayana) and Theravada backgrounds. As the title suggests, however, the book goes beyond the basics and is thought-provoking for experienced practitioners as well as those new to Buddhism. 
The book gives an overview of the life of Sakyamuni Buddha, and then addresses the foundations of all Buddha-Dharma, the Four Noble Truths, and the Noble Eightfold Path. This is then built on with an introduction to Dependent Origination, Karma, Rebirth, and more. A number of useful annexes are provided as references.

​

The author was invited to spend a month with a traditional and strict Buddhist master in Taiwan. Initially the intention was to spend the whole month in the master's mountain monastery, but as things transpired the Master decided to take the author with him on a pilgrimage to one of the sacred mountains in China for part of the month.
This fascinating, honest and very real book is bravely based on the diary the author kept during his stay, with additional explanatory notes added. This is not a travelogue, but a record of the author's spiritual and emotional journey, the doubts and questions which arose, and how he overcame them. The additional notes illustrate some of the changes in his outlook which have developed in the years since.
