Publisher's summary

An insightful guide into one of the world’s three major religions and the 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 differently, 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 his or her 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:

• A historical look at Buddhism and the story of a prince
• How Buddhist philosophy can be used to live a better life

It’s highly helpful for me to adapt.

It is anything but a fix obviously, yet it let me comprehend myself so much better. The storyteller sounds pleasant, albeit to some degree moderate once in a while. I used to be ignorant of the benefits of chakra when it comes to my health and emotional well-being. Well, not anymore.

Amazing for a beginner.

This book has helped me tremendously with the questions I had in my practice. Anyone that is wanting a very straight forward answer to most all things Buddhist related, this is a good starting point. It is very simple and doesn't beat around any answers. Great book/guide.

Great Introduction to Buddhism

I really enjoyed how the book explained the concepts of Buddhism in simple terms for someone who is just starting to explore this religion. I found myself following along intently and even able to apply concepts immediately into my everyday life.

Perfect amount of learning and practise sentences

Anyone who tends to follow this philosophy collects books on the subject and has one particular favorite that they return to time and time again. This book has now claimed that title due to its simplicity and quality of narration.

A great Introduction

This book was created and easy to understand. It is a great way to understand Buddhism as a philosophy and as a life path. I think I've been converted...

Great Topic

Very good information. This was my refresher course and wit more info. Thank you for your knowledge and wisdom. Glad I got it

Excellent basic-level learning.

Narrator has a beautiful tone and a great tempo. The book has many basic theories and principles of Buddhism that I will definitely be revisiting at a later date, this is a book you can read multiple times and even use as a reference. Rich topic put into simple language for those of us just beginning our journey into Buddhism.

Great beginners audiobook

This is an excellent beginners audiobook. Gives you an all over idea about what Buddhism is about and the history of it. I recommend another audiobook then this if your looking to learn more in depth.

Must-Have!

This is an amazing book, very well created and answers any questions thoroughly that you may have on Buddhism.

Great book

This book was extremely informative and easy to follow. I have read / listened to a few books so far in the Buddhism topic but this book right here drove the point home from me. It has a great way of explaining the origins, how it's been practiced over the years and currently all over the world. It also really drives home that core point that I'm starting to get with Buddhism that there is no one way but each has to find their own way within themselves.
