Historically the most important religion…..the most tremendous movement the world ever saw… the most gigantic spiritual wave ever to burst upon human society… there is no civilization o which its effect has not been felt… Buddha was the first great preacher of equality…..all my life I’ve been very fond of him…that boldness, that fearlessness, that tremendous love…his marvellous brain…This man set in motion the highest moral ideas.
The Buddha, Christ and Gandhi-the great three are universally regarded as harbingers of harmony, compassion and peace, the first of whom once again being revived in modern times to sort out the present day problems of unprecedented violence and terror- the Holy Dalai Lama being one powerful expression of his being one powerful expression of his message and piety. His was history’s first religion of peace which spread all over Asia, including its western regions, without any use of force, and holds its lamp in the East regions, without any use of force, and holds its lamp in the east in particular till date. Latest researches in Germany are succeeding in establishing that Jesus Christ was one in the Bodhisattva tradition, who not only stayed and studied in India when he was young but returned to Kashmir after his crucifixion, in which he did not die and escaped with his followers to Srinagar, where he live till age 90, and where his tomb still quietly stand.
The life-stories of Lord Buddha by various authors are not complete, and end when he takes up the role of the preacher. He tour for several decades and lays the foundation of his unusual religion. As he grows old, his life takes a different turn, and several of these years are highly instructive and interesting. Fortunately, these years are recorded in the famous ‘Mahaparinibbana sutta’, which is presented here unabridged. It also completes the story of his life devoted to a new philosophy and the movement that developed around it in later years, and which continues till date.
An added chapter is the famous sutta Sukhavati Vyha, a detailed description of the Land of Bliss.
