The oldest form of Buddhism extant today, Theravada is practiced
widely in Sri Lanka, Burma, Thailand, and Laos, with a growing
following in the West. For newcomers to Buddhism as well as the
initiated, the book presents an overview of the monks in saffron
robes and their practices, from both a historical and contemporary
viewpoint, plus extracts from the Pali Canon-texts believed to
contain some of the Buddha's original teachings. These center on
the awakening to true experience and freedom from suffering on the
path to happiness. Also included are selections of monastic
observances and liturgical writings, with a description of the
contents and layout of a typical temple.
