Publisher's Synopsis
Sakyamuni was a sage from the ancient Shakya republic in India on whose teachings Buddhism was founded. His life is a story of how a normal human being can become an "awakened one" by sacrificing himself for the benefit of all. As a Buddhist, what we can learn from the eight different stages of the Buddha's life is very inspiring when we follow his teachings in our daily practices. This book helps the readers to form upright values in life and have comfort in this faith.
