The Buddha and the Sahibs
ISBN: 9780719554285 / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Today there are many Buddhists in the West, but for 2000 years the Buddha's teachings were unknown outside Asia. It was not until the late 18th century, when Sir William Oriental Jones, a British judge in India, broke through the Brahmin's prohibition on learning their sacred language, Sanskrit, that clues about the origins of a religion quite distinct from Hinduism began to be deciphered from inscriptions on pillars and rocks.
