Description

The Buddha: A Beginner's Guide by John Strong presents an authoritative biography that explores the life and teachings of one of history's greatest religious figures. This volume delves into the story of the Buddha's birth, enlightenment, and deathbed deeds, while also examining the roots of key Buddhist beliefs and practices.

Through accounts of his previous lives and the relics he left behind, Strong offers a nuanced understanding of the Buddha's enduring presence in the world. By tracing the development of Buddhist teachings from their earliest beginnings, this book provides not only a compelling study of the Buddha's life but also a helpful introduction to Buddhism as a whole.
