Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The book challenges the common portrayal of the Buddha as "enlightened," arguing that this perspective has led to a skewed understanding of Buddhism as primarily a religion of enlightenment. Instead, it emphasizes the term "awakened," suggesting a deeper, more nuanced interpretation of the Buddha's teachings and their implications for practitioners. This exploration invites readers to reconsider their views on Buddhist philosophy and its core principles.
