What The Buddha Taught by Walpola Rahula

This indispensable volume is a lucid and faithful account of the Buddhaâ s teachings. “For years,â says the Journal of the Buddhist Society, “the newcomer to Buddhism has lacked a simple and reliable introduction to the complexities of the subject. Dr. Rahulaâ s What the Buddha Taught fills the need as only could be done by one having a firm grasp of the vast material to be sifted. It is a model of what a book should be that is addressed first of all to `the educated and intelligent reader. â Authoritative and clear, logical and sober, this study is as comprehensive as it is masterly. â This edition contains a selection of illustrative texts from the Suttas and the Dhammapada (specially translated by the author), sixteen illustrations, and a bibliography, glossary, and index.
