Tales of the Buddha's Former Lives

Mehr zum Buch

Jataka stories which are reported to be taught to children in part or full, in parts of India or elsewhere. 'Jataka' or tales of the former lives of the Buddha - based on those, the book is.One story has the moral that 'one cannot be forced on-to the path of Good.' In case the reader - as is commonly observed in the minds and hearts of men, who have every kind of deceitfulness and wicked thoughts in heart and mind - decides to force a book down throat of a little one for prideful reasons: such as, oh, the Lord knows and I do not - keeping up with the Joneses perhaps? Whose child is a shinier example of Good: yours or mine? Yes, this book has a story that goes on lengthily only to arrive at the moral that 'you cannot force another to do good, or be good'. Title? Or sub-title? 'Mis-guided morality'.88 Bright Hill RoadSingapore 574117publication@kmspks.orgwww.kmspks,orgKong Meng San Phor K.rk See MonasteryDharma Propagation Division
