Buddha and Buddhism (Great Religious Leaders)

The Buddha was born in India about 2,500 years ago. He spent many years trying to find out what caused people to suffer, and how to end suffering. Eventually he found the answers and became 'Enlightened'. For the rest of his life he travelled, preached and taught, giving rise to the religion that is now known as Buddhism. This book tells you about the life of the Buddha, who he was and what he did. It explains how he found 'the Middle Way', what he taught his followers, and about the holy books that contain his teaching. There is also information on Buddhist sacred places, festivals, and how the Buddha's work has lasted to the present day.

Religion & Spirituality

Buddhism

Hinduism is the oldest religion in the world. No single person founded it. But over the centuries many religious thinkers developed the Hindu way of life. Hindus believe that Krishna is the Supreme Being, who lived on earth as a man to save people from evil. This book tells you all about Krishna, who he was, how he grew up and what he did. It explains his teaching, how it is written down in Hindu sacred texts, and how Hindus worship Krishna as a god of love. Four stories retell key moments in his life: from his birth to his childhood antics, his marriage, his reign as a prince and his achievements, to finally how he died. There is also information on Krishna and food, places that are sacred to him, festivals, and how his influence on Hinduism has lasted to the present day.

Muhammad and Islam (Great Religious Leaders)

When Muhammad was about 40 years old, he started to have revelations from the One God, Allah. At first he was shocked by them, but later he started to talk in public about Allah's message. Gradually, people realised he was a prophet and started to follow his teaching. Eventually this grew into the religion now known as Islam. This book tells you about the life of Muhammad (pbuh), who he was and what he did. It explains his revelations from Allah, what he taught his followers and about the Muslim holy book, the Qur'an. Four key moments in his life are also retold: his birth, his revelations, his flight to Heaven and his death. There is also information about sacred places, festivals and how Muhammad's teaching is as important today as it was hundreds of years ago.
