Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores Buddhism as a discipline of salvation or a path to deliverance, rather than a religion, contrasting it with traditional religious belief systems of the period. The author argues that Buddhism is a rationalistic philosophy built on a few simple truths: life ends in death, everything is misery, and transmigration depends on the actions of man himself. This leads to the core concept of the book: that there is no permanent, substantial unity or Self, but rather a continuous, fluid complex that persists for an endless number of existences. The book examines inconsistencies in Buddhist thought and discusses ideas such as rebirth, karma, and the nature of nirvana, shedding light on the intricacies of Buddhist philosophy and its profound insights into human existence and the nature of suffering. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
