Buddha and the Gospel of Buddhism is a book written by Ananda K. Coomaraswamy, a Sri Lankan philosopher and art historian. The book explores the teachings of Buddha and the principles of Buddhism. It delves into the core beliefs of Buddhism, including the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, and the concept of Nirvana. Coomaraswamy examines the similarities and differences between Buddhism and Christianity, and argues that the teachings of Buddha are not only relevant to the East, but also to the West. The book also includes a discussion of Buddhist art and architecture, and how these reflect the principles of Buddhism. Overall, Buddha and the Gospel of Buddhism is a comprehensive exploration of Buddhism and its teachings, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in Eastern philosophy and spirituality.1916. The aim of this book is to set forth as simply as possible the gospel of Buddhism according to the Buddhist scriptures, and to consider the Buddhist systems in relation, on the one hand, to the Brahmanical systems in which they originate, and, on the other hand, to those systems of Christian mysticism which afford the nearest analogies. At the same time the endeavor has been made to illustrate the part which Buddhist thought has played in the whole development of Asiatic culture, and to suggest a part of the significance it may still possess for modern thinkers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
