Synopsis
Excerpt from Outlines of the Mahâyâna as Taught by Buddha
Two thousand nine hundred and twenty years ago (B.C. 1027), our Great Sage, the world-honored Siddhartha was born in the palace of his father, Raja Suddhodana, in the city of Kapilvastu, Magadha. Lamenting that men are inevitably subject to the sufferings of sickness, old age, and death, he, in his nineteenth year, forsook his heirship to the kingdom and all his precious possessions, and secretly stole out of the palace into the mountains to seek the path by which he should be able to escape from these sufferings and to attain to the perfect emancipation. Six years he spent in meditation and asceticism; but finding that ascetism was not the path he was seeking, he abandoned it, and retired to the shade of the Bodhi tree, to meditate upon the truth of nature. At last, having clearly perceived the true nature of mind, he attained to the perfect enlightenment, and henceforward he was Sakya-Muni. This was in his thirtieth year. After that, for fifty years, he exerted himself teaching and enlightening sentient beings till, at the age of seventy-nine, he left this world.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive exploration of Mahayana Buddhism, delving into its core principles, practices, and historical context within the broader Buddhist tradition. The author guides readers through the fundamental concepts of Mahayana thought, including the nature of reality, the path to enlightenment, and the interconnectedness of all beings. Emerging over two millennia ago, Mahayana Buddhism distinguishes itself from other schools of Buddhist thought through its emphasis on the bodhisattva path, where individuals strive not only for personal liberation but also for the enlightenment of all sentient beings. The text illuminates the profound teachings of emptiness, compassion, and skillful means, revealing the transformative power of Mahayana Buddhism in navigating the complexities of human existence. Exploring themes of suffering, impermanence, and the illusion of self, this book invites readers to contemplate the nature of their own minds and the interconnectedness of all phenomena. It delves into the concept of karma and the law of cause and effect, shedding light on the ethical dimensions of Mahayana Buddhist practice. By elucidating the path of the bodhisattva, the book encourages readers to cultivate wisdom, compassion, and skillful means in their own lives, contributing to the alleviation of suffering and the pursuit of collective enlightenment.
