Excerpt
Excerpt: Taking a different perspective from the usual biographies of the Buddha, the author retells the great man?s story using the society of the time as the backdrop and the Buddha?s interactions with his contemporaries as the main theme. We discover what the Buddha was like as a person, how he taught and how he changed the lives of all who were blessed enough to come into contact with him.
