This is a seminal and highly influential scholarly text written by the renowned pioneering Sri Lankan philosopher, metaphysician, and art historian Ananda Kentish Coomaraswamy (18771947). First published in 1916, this book stands as one of the earliest and most successful academic attempts to interpret and bridge Eastern Buddhist philosophy for Western audiences. The text provides a comprehensive and lucid account of the life of Siddhartha Gautama, outlining his core foundational doctrines including the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, and the metaphysical concept of Nirvana.
