Book Description
At its initial publication in 1879, this lovely retelling of the life of Prince Gautama Buddha, prior to his attaining enlightenment to become the Buddha, was a huge hit, and a huge scandal. Eastern scholars of Buddhism claimed it misrepresented the doctrine. Western Christians were outraged by the likening of Buddha to Jesus. Its reputation was cemented. English poet SIR EDWIN ARNOLD (1832-1904), whose verse in The Light of Asia was praised at the time and continues to inspire and move readers today, was fascinated by the East, and this work was one of the first to introduce European readers to Buddhism. As an artifact of the opening of Western minds to Eastern influences, this remains a fascinating read, as well as an enlightening one.

Book Description
The Light of Asia, subtitled The Great Renunciation, weaves through its poetic verses the life and philosophy of Prince Siddhartha Gautama who attained enlightenment under the bodhi tree and became the Buddha. Receiving high acclaim since its publication in 1879, Edwin Arnold's work was adapted from the Lalitavistara Sutra (The Unfolding of the Play.) In the time before this work came out, little was known about Buddhism or the Buddha outside of Asia.
