Path of Compassion: Stories from the Buddha's Life

Path of Compassion: Stories from the Buddha's Life

Path of CompassionÂ is a collection of key stories from Thich Nhat Hanhâ€™s classicÂ Old Path White Clouds, a book celebrating its 20th publishing anniversary this year. It tells the fascinating life story of Prince Siddhartha, who left his family and renounced his carefully guarded life, and after many years of spiritual seeking became the Buddha, the Enlightened One. Far more than the description of an unusual life story, it serves as an enjoyable, compelling, and informative introduction to Buddhism by conveying its most important teachings in a compact and accessible format.

Thich Nhat Hanhâ€™s ability to show the Buddha as a person who deals with the same life issues as we do is unique and unsurpassed. Written in language accessible to readers of all ages and levels of experience Thich Nhat Hanh combines the description of the major life stages of the Buddha with his most important teachings. Reaching far beyond the biography genreÂ Path of CompassionÂ is a highly readable and informative introduction to Buddhism.
