Hence the need for this authentic and comprehensive book based on the Four Noble Truths, which are the central conception of Buddhism, and the Noble Eightfold Path, which is Buddhism in practice.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Buddha s Ancient Path\u003c\/em\u003e is a book on basic Buddhism with a difference, for it was written by a monk who was a native of Sri Lanka, a scholar and a well-known preacher. He has the Pali Canon and the Commentaries at his fingertips, so that the book is full of apposite stories and quotations of what the Buddha said  many of them hard to find elsewhere in English.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp style=\"margin-left: 20px; width: 93%\"\u003eThe Buddha never claimed to be a saviour who tried to save souls by means of a revealed religion. Through his own perseverance and understanding he proved that infinite possibilities are latent in man and that it must be man s endeavour to develop and unfold these possibilities. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: right\"\u003e  Piyadassi Thera\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Pariyatti","offers":[{"title":"eBook (PDF | ePUB | MOBI)","offer_id":42108850143326,"sku":"768710","price":4.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Paperback + Free eBook","offer_id":42108850176094,"sku":"778710","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/3677\/0142\/files\/778710_a662918d-51a2-48df-b951-668e84bef7e3.jpg?v=1760548587","url":"https:\/\/store.pariyatti.org\/products\/5081","provider":"Pariyatti","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
