Description

Tradition has it that the Buddha gave 84,000 teachings during his 80 year life (he died around 410 BCE). Although perhaps not literally true, this very large number illustrates the idea that the Buddha's teachings are so extensive that people in all kinds of different situations can find within them something that meets their particular need. The Buddha's 84,000 teachings have shown a remarkable ability to adapt and to resonate with people at different times and in contrasting cultures. The Ancient Strategies for Modern Life is designed to introduce you to Buddhism. How it can help you develop happiness, contentment, equanimity, peace, and love so that you can deal with modern challenges effectively, and generally enrich your experience as a human being.
