Do you wonder what the words "Dharma" and "Shakyamuni" mean, what the Dharma Wheel represents, and why the monastics shave their heads? The high-level teachings of the Buddha do not have to be difficult for you to understand - his deep philosophy and the articles of practice are laid out in this engaging book that is easy to read and understand. Learn the complete Thirty-Seven Paths to liberation and enlightenment (the expanded version of the Noble Eightfold Path), rather than just the simple Eightfold Path.

The writing brings to light the true meaning of the great wisdom prajna versus the ordinary knowledge that we acquire. It reveals the Buddha's teachings on how to develop this great wisdom to carry out actions mindfully and to recognize our blessings and ways to cultivate more blessings. Articles such as the Buddhist flag and its five colors, lotus flower, Kasaya robe, prayer bead, swastika, and more are defined and explained how they portray the Buddha's teachings. Enjoy learning the heart of the Buddha's teachings and find out how the symbolisms represent them by reading this book!
