Description

Dependent Origination in Plain English by Bhante Gunaratana and Veronique Ziegler explores the fundamental Buddhist theory that nothing happens by accident. All things arise based on causes and conditions, and without those causes and conditions they would not exist. This teaching, known as dependent origination, reveals how suffering and rebirth are connected to our everyday experiences. The authors break down this key Buddhist concept into its core components, guiding the reader through a step-by-step understanding of ignorance, suffering, and its end. By examining the process leading to future rebirths, readers can see that it is happening now, with every breath they take. This book provides a clear and accessible introduction to dependent origination, making it easier to understand the Buddha's teaching. Through this exploration, readers can gain insight into the nature of suffering and rebirth, and how to break free from these cycles. With its clear and concise language, Dependent Origination in Plain English is an ideal resource for those seeking a deeper understanding of Buddhist teachings.
