Buddhism For Beginners
An insightful guide into one of the world’s three major religions and wisdom behind its philosophy and teachings.
There once was a prince who left everything; he had to walk the Middle Path and attain enlightenment. So moved was he by the sufferings and the plight of the people that he saw outside the palace walls that he left a life of wealth, riches, and everything that a prince could want to search for a way to end the cycle of suffering. His actions brought about the birth of one of the world’s most peace-loving religions
Any beginner who is looking to take up Buddhism is going to need Buddhism for Beginners in their library. Buddhism is one of the world’s three oldest religions, yet not many fully understand what this religion encompasses. Despite being a religion, the one notable thing about Buddhism that distinguishes it from the rest is that Buddhism does not worship any God or deity. Yes, Buddha was not a God; he was a person. A former prince maybe, but not a God.
Prince Siddhartha Gautama was the very first Buddha to walk the earth, and since then, several Buddhas have come and gone. Buddha is not a person, but a name for those who have managed to successfully attain what all Buddhists seek to do: Attain Nirvana (Enlightenment). If you were wondering why the statues of Buddha always seem to be depicted different, this is one of the reasons why. Prince Siddhartha was the first, but he certainly was not the last.
Buddhism is a religion that focuses on teaching its followers about suffering, the causes of suffering, and what they can do to end the cycle. Suffering is an inevitable part of life, yet it is a part that nearly everyone strives or deny. Yet, Buddhism believes that the key to happiness lies in our ability to embrace the sufferings of this life, and develop a greater understanding of the world around us so that we might one day no longer be afflicted by the pain that suffering brings.
This is the ideal guide for anyone who is looking to broaden their understanding of this remarkable religion and the way its teachings can transform the way that we live. What Buddhism for Beginners is going to cover includes:
How Buddhist philosophy can be used to live a better life
A look at life, death, and spirituality
Understanding what it means to be a Buddhist
An introduction into the gestures, Right Discipline, and practices
The benefits of Buddhism
Understanding suffering, karma, reincarnation, and yoga
What the life of a Buddhist is like
The practices you can implement in your life
Mindfulness and acceptance techniques to help manage stress and anxiety
A Buddhist’s diet
Meditative practices
