It begins with a life sketch of the greatest sage who formed the fourth largest religion in the world, i.e. Buddhism. The volume covers the hagiography of Buddha his birth, attainment of enlightenment, ministry, and death. Buddha's sermons, initiation into discipleship and training, rules and regulations, moralism, and faith are all covered in this edition.
Major teachings, philosophies, and metaphysical knowledge associated with Buddhism such as causality, the issue of dhamma, the meaning and the philosophy of life and death, and awareness of the inner self are discussed in this volume. Similarly, both Coomaraswamy and Horner also discuss the issues of heresiology, dhamma for the common folk, sacrifices, treatment of animals, and familial and societal responsibilities from Buddha's perspective.
