Product Description

Product Description
Offering an introduction to Buddhism for Westerners who want to learn more about the religion as a path of spiritual growth, this revised and restructured edition explains the essential teachings and practices on which all mainstream Buddhists can agree. It also sets out to show how this ancient wisdom is more than ever relevant to the psychological, social and spiritual issues concerning men and women in the modern West.

3.0 out of 5 stars Brief and Limited Book, 6 April 2009
By L. Davidson (Belfast, N.Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I bought this book out of curiosity as I had never been able to fathom out what it was that Buddhists actually believed. After reading it I am a little more knowledgeable about the subject. Buddhist beliefs are a lot like those of Christianity with regards to it's love-thy-neighbour-as- yourself aspects, but it clearly diverges from this path in it's rejection of the notion of an omnipotent,judgemental creator god.Buddhism also rejects the concept of Original Sin and instead teaches that man can effectively become a god by achieving Enlightement through meditative practices and ethical living. This little book is a useful introduction to a topic that weightier tomes would probably shed greater light upon.
