About the book:-The sacred lore of the Buddhists is based on the canonical books, acomplete collection of which is technically called Tripitaka (Tipitaka), i.e., the three Baskets: i. Vinaya, Sutra (Sutta), and Abhidharma (Abhidhamma). Of all the collections going by that name the Pali Tipitaka, representing the version acknowledged by the orthodox Theras or Vibhajyavadins of Ceylon, is the only one which forms a well arranged whole and is sufficiently known to admit of a critical disquisition into the relative age of its component parts, at least to a certain extent. Buddhism is a religion of universal peace and concord. The present book fulfils its aim by placing emphasis on the facts in relation to this aspect of the creed. The book is divided into five sections. Section I is Introductory. It recounts in particular the sacred books of the Buddhists, literature subsidiary to the canon the period of Origin of Buddhism and Indian thoughts and ideals contemporaneous with it. Section II deals with the life of Buddha from conception birth the childhood to Parinirvana cremation and partition of the relics. About the author:-Johan Hendrik Caspar Kern (1833 — 1917 ) was a Dutch linguist and orientalist . In the professional literature he is usually referred to as H. Kern or Hendrik Kern; there are some other scientists with the same last name. Kern, together with Herman Neubronner van der Tuuk, is regarded as one of the founders of Eastern studies in the Netherlands. His great interest in languages had already become apparent at grammar school, when he decided to add English and Italian to his curriculum. He displayed an extraordinary ability to study and thoroughly master a wide variety of languages. He also showed his versatility in his cultural studies. His History of Buddhism in India (1881–83) showed that he had a thorough command of the field, although his incomplete understanding of Eastern astrology and mysticism has been criticized. His positivist approach to the material may have been partly to blame for this. The Title 'MANUAL OF INDIAN BUDDHISM written/authored/edited by H. KERN', published in the year 2021.
