In this slim, enlightening volume, internationally recognized
Buddhist teacher Martine Batchelor presents the basic tenets and
teachings of the Buddha through a selection of essential texts from
the Pali canon, the earliest Buddhist scriptures. Viewed by
scholars as the actual substance of the historical teachings (and
possibly even the words) of the Buddha, these texts are essential
to an understanding of the Buddhist faith, and Batchelor
illuminates them with her lucid analysis and interpretations. Both
accessible to nonpractitioners and helpful to scholars, "The Spirit
of the Buddha" touches upon key themes, including dharma,
compassion, meditation, and peace, among others, creating a
panoramic view of one of the world's most widely practiced faiths
that is deeply rooted in its most vital texts.
