7.WHAT THE BUDDHA NEVER TAUGHT
SUMMARY OF THE BOOK : A culture classic and bestseller in the 1990s, What the Buddha Never Taught is a humorous 'behind the robes' account of life inside one of the strictest jungle monasteries in Southeast Asia.
Buddha had silently become an ICON of our Country. I wonder many a times, how come the spread of Buddhism is very limited in its origin country and had developed its roots strongly in neighbouring countries.
The only answer i could finalize on is we take Siddhartha as one of us and Hindus may consider Buddhism, a part of Hinduism!
Many books have celebrated him and his thoughts / Philosophies.
Just a look at him or a thought about him brings the peace within us...
What i liked in him is his simplicity and the approach of life also to be simple. He SYMBOLISES - Don't Become! JUST BE!
Buddha teaches us to be aware to self and the surroundings!
Buddha is a leader, in true sense, says what he does!
Buddha doesn't preach, he follows and becomes an example! Gives confidence to us of trying those.
Buddha never accepted the older thoughts!
Buddha questioned, researched, practiced, and then sieved only is required for the present and gifted us those principles.
You can flip through the pages of the following to know more and learn about him!

SUMMARY OF THE BOOK : A book not only for every follower of the Buddha around the world but also for every Indian who wants to understand the Buddha. This book is a study with a heart but one where reason is allowed to be free. In any study of the historical Buddha there are two major obstacles to confront. Firstly, there are the systematic prejudices that developed against him through the centuries in his own country. Secondly, some of the fantastic myths associated with him can give pause to a modern man of science. As this book shows, however, these hurdles can be readily surmounted. This is done by responding to the Buddhas famous exhortation to "come and see". Rather than accept the Buddha blindly, the book invites readers to simply open their hearts and minds enough to examine him in a fair manner. Though the author uses the Tipitaka as his primary authority, he does not tie himself to any particular tradition. The Buddhas universal teaching came out of the Indian subcontinents agrarian culture. He was firmly rooted in this world and not in any heavenly realms. The book takes the reader on a journey into the life and the teachings of this Son of Earth-an extraordinary human being who offered his fellow humans a timeless road map to a happy life. The book also raises questions that will hopefully help to foster healthy dialogue, in the true spirit in which the Buddha wanted others to look at and follow his teaching.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Prof A. H. Salunkhe is a renowned Sanskrit scholar and philosopher in Maharashtra. He is the author of several path breaking texts on wide ranging topics in ancient Indian traditions— women in Hinduism, culture of Manu Smriti, women in Mahabharat, Lokayata (Charvaka), enslavement of the majority by Vedic scriptures, a critique of Indian historical characters—asuras and Vedic gods, Tukaram’s true message, Huen-Tsang and several others that have given expression to the glorious traditions and heroes of India that were hugely influential and yet remain unknown in our times. Dr Dhananjay Chavan practises psychiatry in Pune. He worked for several years on the project to digitize Pali Tipitaka and made presentations on this topic in international conferences. He counts Dr Ambedkar and Evolutionary Biology along with Acharya Goenka and Psychiatry as major influences on his quest to understand and follow the Buddha. He has edited Dharmanand Kosambi’s Samadhimarg which is a treatise on meditation practices of the Buddha. He hopes to translate this into English in near future. He is currently working on two books— one on simple principles for health and happiness for the elderly and the other for family members of people with dementia.

SUMMARY OF THE BOOK : Siddhartha is a novel by Hermann Hesse that deals with the spiritual journey of a boy known as Siddhartha from the Indian subcontinent during the time of Lord Buddha. In a very simple prose, Hesse has conveyed a very profound message for all seekers. A brahmin boy follows his heart and goes through various lives to finally understand what it means to be enlightened. He experiences life as a pious brahmin, a Samana, a rich merchant, a lover, an ordinary ferryman, to a father— Neither a practitioner nor a devotee, neither meditating nor reciting, Siddhartha comes to blend in with the world, resonating with the rhythms of nature, bending the reader's ear down to hear answers from the river...
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Hermann Karl Hesse ( 2 July 1877 – 9 August 1962) was a German-born poet, novelist, and painter. His best-known works include Demian, Steppenwolf, Siddhartha, and The Glass Bead Game, each of which explores an individual's search for authenticity, self-knowledge and spirituality. In 1946, he received the Nobel Prize in Literature.

SUMMARY OF THE BOOK : These ancient verses offer a compelling introduction to Buddhist thought, revealing the Four Truths -- concerning the nature of the world and our lot in it -- and the Eightfold Path to enlightenment, the means by which to overcome the essential suffering revealed by the Four Truths as the essence of life.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR : Friedrich Max Müller (6 December 1823 – 28 October 1900), generally known as Max Müller, was a German-born philologist and Orientalist, who lived and studied in Britain for most of his life. He was one of the founders of the western academic field of Indian studies and the discipline of comparative religion.
In 1844, prior to commencing his academic career at Oxford, Müller studied in Berlin with Friedrich Schelling. He began to translate the Upanishads for Schelling, and continued to research Sanskrit under Franz Bopp, the first systematic scholar of the Indo-European languages.
Swami Vivekananda, who was the foremost disciple of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, met Max Muller over a lunch on 28 May 1896. Regarding Max Müller and his wife, the Swami later wrote:
The visit was really a revelation to me. That little white house, its setting in a beautiful garden, the silver-haired sage, with a face calm and benign, and forehead smooth as a child's in spite of seventy winters, and every line in that face speaking of a deep-seated mine of spirituality somewhere behind; that noble wife, the helpmate of his life through his long and arduous task of exciting interest, overriding opposition and contempt, and at last creating a respect for the thoughts of the sages of ancient India — the trees, the flowers, the calmness, and the clear sky — all these sent me back in imagination to the glorious days of ancient India, the days of our brahmarshis and rajarshis, the days of the great vanaprasthas, the days of Arundhatis and Vasishthas. It was neither the philologist nor the scholar that I saw, but a soul that is every day realizing its oneness with the universe.
Max Müller's translation of Dhammapada from the Pali is one of most important translations in the domain of Buddhism. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

SUMMARY OF THE BOOK : In the ancient city of Kapilavastu, a prince named Siddhartha Gautama was born, and a wise man declared that he would grow up to be either a powerful king or a spiritual leader who would end suffering. Though his father kept him sheltered, Siddhartha soon became aware of the pain and disease that plagued the world and so abandoned his noble life in order to find answers. He'd eventually become the founder of a religion which persists today, and which has spread a message of compassion and understanding across the world. It was not an easy journey; Siddhartha faced the temptations of a demon, the outbreaks of war, and rebellion within his own order. Follow his journey from prince to pauper and from beggar to Buddha.
