Summary of Noah Rasheta's No-Nonsense Buddhism for Beginners

Sinopse

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 The Buddha was a man who lived around 500 BCE in northern India and Nepal. He taught a method of living that was intended to be practiced, rather than a set of ideas he asked his followers to believe.#2 The Buddha spoke Māgadhī Prākrit, the spoken language of the ancient Māgadha kingdom in northern India. But we can’t say for certain that he did, as there is no written record of his teachings in his native language.#3 The traditional story is that Siddhartha Gautama was born in Lumbini, in what is now Nepal, around 500 BCE. He was the son of a king, raised in luxury and affluence. He renounced the life of a prince and began his quest for inner peace. He struggled with the concepts and ideas that were blinding him from seeing reality clearly.#4 Buddhism teaches us that our perception of any situation is influenced by both what actually happened and by our assumptions about it. We can release ourselves from our assumptions and start to feel okay with not always understanding the situation we’re in.
