Gautama Buddha

by Kenneth J. Saunders

Gotama Buddha`s influence after the lapse of 26 centuries is still a mighty force in the world. The modern world with its passionate belief in organization and in wealth may learn much from Gotama. According to the author Here was a man who without setting up an elaborate organization despising wealth and trusting only the contagion of great ideas exerted an influence which is still potent in the heart of half the human race. Kenneth J. Saunders author of The Story of Buddhism and Buddhist Ideals and editor of The Buddha`s way of Virtue and The Heart of Buddhism was Literary Secretary Y.M.C.A. India Burma and Ceylon.
