Opis

Buddhism as a model of religious life and spiritual path has been widely practiced across the world. It began around 2,610 years ago in India when Siddhartha Gautama discovered how to bring happiness into the world. Edwin Arnold has fittingly called Gautama Buddha the "Light of Asia" Wisdom of the world. Buddhism is relevant to the present world because of the environment crisis we are facing at present and we are heading towards mass extinction of species. We live in an age of conflict and war, of hatred and violence all over the world. This book besides being a visual delight for any reader, will be useful to people from all walks of life whether they are Academicians, Philatelists, Researchers on Buddhism or Non-violence and World Peace.
