Life and Times Of Buddha

Siddhartha Gautama lived 2,500 years ago, but the effects of his life are still shaping the world today. The son of a king, he left a world of wealth and privilege to seek a better life-and he found it in the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. After he had found what he was seeking, he did not retire to a quiet place where he could spend all of his time in meditation. Instead, he devoted himself to sharing what he had discovered with others.Gedney, Mona K. is the author of 'Life and Times Of Buddha ', published 2005 under ISBN 9781584153429 and ISBN 1584153423.
