Even the name Buddhism doesn't mean that they really pray to Buddha, but rather try to emulate the ways of Buddha - the man that reached enlightenment. In fact, the world Budhi means to have awaken which in Buddhism means to reach enlightenment. The religion was started by a man named Siddhartha Gautama, the founder of this spiritual religion or philosophy, if you will, and the first man to reach enlightenment; hence, he is colloquially referred to as Buddha. Siddhartha was born into a wealthy and influential family in the 4th century B.C., in Eastern India. Due to a prophetic telling, his father decided to keep him away from the outside world so that he would instead concentrate on being a great prince. Despite his father's attempts he was able to get outside of his father's walls to see the outside world in which he saw an old man, a sick man, a dead man, and an abstinent holy man. The holy man was the only one at peace so he decided to follow him.Why Should You Purchase And Read This Book? = > 1. Its Short And Informative No Fluff!! = > 2.

At one point, he almost starved himself to death (this is too extreme on one end of the spectrum) but then decided to eat (although not too much which would be the other end of the spectrum), which is how he discovered the middle way.Another turning point for his wondrous life was when he meditated under the famous fig tree until he reached enlightenment. Once he did achieve this state of nirvana, he decided to go out and instruct others on how to reach it. His numerous followers went off to begin schools of their own and Buddha's final act was to predict his own death saying he was leaving his Earthly body behind. That evening he grew violently ill from eating a pork dish and died. His religion or spiritual philosophy went on to be one of the largest in the world and is still gaining popularity. Buddhism spread far and wide including the Indian subcontinent, East Asia and South East Asia, where many prominent schools developed. Chinese Buddhist schools sprung up, namely the Tibetan schools, and temples grew all over Thailand, Cambodia and even the water-locked islands of Indonesia.

Do you want to learn it in a PRACTICAL manner that actually improves your day to day life? Do you want to learn it in an easy to understand manner? Buddhism now is more popular than it has been in decades, the Buddha's incredible teachings are starting to get the recognition they deserve. What has happened recently is a wave of books that only go over the theory of Buddhism and don't cover the most important aspect- how Buddhism can transform your daily life and revolutionize you as a person. As a practicing Buddhist, I came to the realization that while memorizing the 4 Noble Truths is great, what's more important is living the teachings, and allowing them to permeate into your life. Not only that, but for us Westerners we need a slightly different approach then the Monks, we have busy and demanding lives and Buddhism can still help us live in harmony! We've all seen the studies on Mindfulness, such as the 2011 study in the Psychiatry research showed how Mindfulness Meditation can literally change our brain chemistry or how a 2009 Harvard study proved Mindfulness can help fight disease through the 'relaxation effect.' But, this won't have any impact on you until you start PRACTICING Mindfulness and Meditation, memorizing the 5 hindrances doesn't have quite the same effect unfortunately. Anyways, here is just a slither of what you will discover inside... - The 1 Practice the Buddha recommended that will make you the Happiest version of yourself! - How to use the 4 Noble truths to ELIMINATE suffering in your life - What 'Awakening' is and how to actually awaken yourself! - The 5 Secrets Buddhist Monks use to become effortlessly happy every single day - Why this 1 daily practice will help you find serenity in the most crazy times of your life - A simple, yet incredibly effective, meditation technique to help you relieve stress and feel more at peace even if you've NEVER meditated before - 7 Practical tips to help you free yourself from the tyranny of your own mind - The truth about Karma and how it can genuinely help you transform your life (Most westerners don't know this) - How to practice Buddhism on your own terms, in your own way (Remember it's a personal practice!) - Why more average westerners are becoming Buddhist than ever before AND increasing their happiness levels at the same time - What Buddhists know about true peace that you don't - How to live your life in the present moment with the help of these 5 Practices - Tips and Strategies for making all of the teachings part of your 'Everyday Buddhism' practice - The Startling truth about why the most important part of Buddhism is the PRACTICAL applications of the teachings - And that is barely even scratching the surface! Even if you have no idea what Karma really is or don't even have a clue what this whole Mindfulness craze is all about, this book outlines an easy to digest way how the incredible teachings of the Buddha can transform your life!

Grab this simple and clear meditation guide in 12 steps to begin a path of enlightenment & true liberation Many people hear the word, "Buddhism," and they think it is a religion. However, a person of any religion can bring Buddhist principles into their life without giving up their religious beliefs. There is no "God" to worship if you practice Buddhism. There are not Buddhist churches on every other street corner in every town in the Bible belt of the United States. There are no potluck dinners in the fellowship hall after a sermon. Buddhism can be viewed as a religion - and under that view, Buddhism is the 4th largest religion in the world - but it is much more than that, its truth goes much deeper than a traditional religion. Buddhism is a philosophy - it is a way of living your life following a path of spiritual development that leads you to the truth of reality. There is no one definition of Buddhism because it is a practicing philosophy that you cannot truly understand until you actually experience it. However, that does not mean that this book is useless; rather, it is a guide to give you a basic understanding of the principles, beliefs, and practices of Buddhism. This will allow you to decide for yourself if Buddhism has a place in your life. Should you choose to follow the path of the Buddha, you can expect Buddhism to change your life. In this book, you will learn more about: The Origin of Buddhism The Teachings of Buddhism The Different School of Buddhism The Most Important Aspects of Buddhism Buddhism in Our Time How to Practice five Precepts of Buddhism The Essence of Life and Enlightenment Buddhism for Children Creating a Meditation Space in Your Home Typical Buddhist meditation ... AND MORE! There are varied schools of Buddhism, such as Zen and Tibetan. However, the basic principles and concepts are the same as the goal of enlightenment never changing. Buddhism truly is a way of life, rather than a traditional religion. There is a long history behind Buddhism, one that tells the story of the founder of this philosophical way of life. We call a person who follows this spiritual path one who "practices" Buddhism. That is because Buddhism requires daily practice at understanding it and following its path. You do not simply read one book and come away enlightened. When you choose to be a Buddhist practitioner, you set yourself on a lifelong path that will help you to grow and learn what it means to be human. You will find an inner peace. You will learn why Buddhist mindfulness can help you to feel happier, more content, and more satisfied with your life. Many religions include the concept of a creator god or gods. Buddhism does not. Because of this, some people, especially in the West, have trouble viewing it as a religion. But it really does not matter what you call it. You can consider it your religion or not. It really depends what matters to you in making a religion. What are you waiting for? Click buy now!
