Encounters
with Enlightenment
Stories from the life of the Buddha
by Saddhaloka
 We
do not know if the Buddha could read or write. He left nothing
other than the oral stories of his life, his inspiration
and
his teachings, passed from
generation to generation. Later, his words and the incidents of his life were
preserved for us on fragile palm leaves. These stories are as fresh and relevant
today as they were when told under the cool moonlight of India 2,500 years ago.
This collection of timeless, well-loved stories from the life of the Buddha is
presented with simple elegance by Saddhaloka. By remaining faithful to the ancient
Pali texts from which they are drawn, they allow us to enter the world of the
Buddha and encounter an Enlightened One.

Believe nothing merely because you have been told it... Do not believe what your teacher tells you merely out of respect for the teacher. But whatsoever, after due examination and analysis, you find to be kind, conducive to the good, the benefit, the welfare of all beings - that doctrine believe and cling to and take it as your guide.
The Buddha
