And in this connection we will listen for a moment to Mr. Barton's
poet friend. The Dumb Christ. Ay, dumb Why should he speak ? Had he
not spoken ? But who believed? Who but at last forsook, And left
him on the world's wheel to be broken, Who had escaped the meaning
of that look? Ay, dumb Of what avail were speaking now? Powers of
the world were speaking near and far, In whom he had no part, for
on his brow Was set a crown that held no glittering star; His robes
were not the robes of mortal kings? The Wronged, the Bruised, the
Desolated One Nor was his kingdom one of earthly things,? Sin's
Victim-martyr, God's obedient Son Speak ? He had spoken as man
never spake, Words that earth's multitudinous dead shall yet awake/
G. J. B. "Ix is More Blessed To Give Than To Receive.' Then will I
give out of the heart's great store, Give as the rivers flowing to
the sea. Give to the full,?till I can give no more, Nor ever ask it
once returned to me. Take, O ye needy, though I thirst and die, All
that I have' and am, heart, life, and limb, "ZMore blessed to give
than to receive." 19 Take, for the love of Christ doth sanctify, I
give as I were giving unto Him. O trembling hearts that wither in
the shade, Come forth and sun ye in the light of God; He hateth
nothing He hath ever made, But loveth most when most doth fall the
rod. Come forth, ye hungry, here is store for all ? Bread without
stint, whoe'er doth crave or call. G. J. B. chapter{Section

Siddhartha Gautama, the great Indian philosopher, is believed to
have attained "Enlightenment" sometime in the middle of the 5th
century before the Common Era, while meditating under a "Bodhi"
tree. From that time of Enlightenment until his death, by which he
entered "Nirvana," he traveled by foot around the countryside of
India, teaching others his philosophy of the Middle Path. The
foundations of Buddhist tradition and practice are often called the
Three Jewels: "the Buddha," "the Dharma" (teachings), and "the
Sangha" (community).
Presented in this modern special edition is a unique selection of
the ancient texts which would follow the path of the Silk Road from
India to China to Japan, and evolve into the school of thought
known today as Zen Buddhism. This path follows the Indian Mahayana
verses from the "Dhammapada," to a collection of Buddhist sutras
(scriptures) transcribed from Chinese texts, and finally concludes
with the Threefold Lotus, the three Pure Land sect sutras favored
in Japan.

Edition" Reprinted by permission - All rights reserved.
The Buddha said: ""There are two aims which he who has given up the
world ought not to follow after - devotion, on the one hand, to
those things whose attractions depend upon passions, a low and
pagan ideal, fit only for the worldly-minded; ignoble,
unprofitable; and the practice on the other hand of asceticism,
which is painful, ignoble, and unprofitable.
There is a Middle Path discovered by the Tathagata a path which
opens the eyes, and bestows understanding, which leads to peace, to
insight, to the higher wisdom, to Nirvana. It is the Noble
Eightfold Path...""
