A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This is a thoughtful and analytical analysis of the deification of Buddha and his life. Olcott recounts the way in which we, as humans, relate to those of us that surpass the normal expectations. The author relays that life of the Buddha and how he came to establish a faith based on Spirit. And that the reality we live in is not real, but the life of the Spirit is the true essence of existence. A thought provoking and enlightening read.
