Buddhism is a Religion: You Can Believe It - Paperback

The Buddha is still speaking to us from thousands of years ago. How can we best hear his message? How can we take his teachings to heart and live more contented, wholesome and meaningful lives? In this book, David Brazier warns that we are in danger of gravely misunderstanding the Buddha. In minimising or overlooking the metaphysical, religious foundation of his teachings, we are reducing his message to mere techniques. Through themes such as worship, belief and emptiness, Brazier shows us the vital importance of understanding Buddhism as a Religion. This book tells us that the most important thing Buddhism has to offer is lost when we reject its religious heart.
