Siddhartha Gautama is regarded as the Supreme Buddha of our age. Gautama taught a Middle Way between sensual indulgence and the severe asceticism found in the Sramana (renunciation) movement common in his region. He later taught throughout regions of eastern India such as Magadha and Kosala. Gautama is the primary figure in Buddhism and accounts of his life, discourses, and monastic rules are believed by Buddhists to have been summarized after his death and memorized by his followers. Various collections of teachings attributed to him were passed down by oral tradition and first committed to writing about 400 years later. This book gives an account of his life and teachings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ileen Bear\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9385505106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789385505102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Alpha Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/08\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 94\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.19d","brand":"Ileen Bear","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44079631597823,"sku":"9789385505102","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0ba9385b-b8b8-48ee-abb0-0ea96b408e7b.jpg?v=1685482248","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gautama-buddha-a-biography-ileen-bear-9789385505102","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
