The Story Of The Buddha

About the Book:-The author is going to tell us the story of the life of a very great man. He was not great as the world usually regards greatness, being neither a conqueror nor a hero in any worldly sense—in fact, for many years of his life he was a beggar. Buddha is the name by which he is generally known; but before he begins his story he must tell us something of the lands where he lived and taught—in the great mysterious East, which is so different in every way from the part of the world we live. When the narrative of the Buddha's life was told again and again, in countries far removed from the scenes where the events had taken place, tales of wonders and miracles were added to the first simple story. Many of these legends, which are very beautiful, were intended to be understood as allegories, and stories told in this way have always been favourites with Eastern people. You will see that it is sometimes difficult to distinguish the facts from the legends which were added in later years. We know that the events of chief importance in the Buddha's beautiful life are historical facts, and that is all that really matters. The book is informative with eight fine illustrations.
