Buddhism Enlightenment Fundamentals Library Mainstream Tuttle

Published in association with the distinguished Buddhist Society, London, this book provides a lucid study of the primary tenets of Buddhism. It is directed specifically to those seeking to learn the foundations of Buddhist ideas in a straightforward manner, without becoming involved in conflicting sectarian interpretations. The author draws his material directly from the Buddha's own teachings, known as sutras, as well as from major texts and commentaries recorded in the first centuries after the Buddha's death. Accepted by all Buddhist sects, these have been translated from the original Pali and Sanskrit languages, and form the basis of what the author describes as "Mainstream" Buddhism. The result is a clear presentation of the Buddha's teachings that the reader can use as a starting point for further study or for actual Buddhist practice.

In this fascinating dialogue between Robert Thurman and Deepak Chopra, M.D., many concepts relating to compassion, enlightenment, and Buddhism arc examined in depth. Some of the conclusions that Thurman and Chopra make include the following: -- The heart of the teaching of the Buddha is that enlightenment is getting to that level of awareness where you realize that the core of your being is the core of every other being on the planet. -- Ignorance -- the fundamental ignorance about what we are and what the world is -- is the cause of suffering in the world. -- Compassion doesn't just mean feeling the suffering of others, it means really helping them overcome their pain in order to make them happy. This discussion will educate and entertain you, and also inspire you to break out of the hypnosis of cultural conditioning to find your own path to enlightenment.
