But sometimes there s nothing he can doAt nineteen I saw that my life would be painful from now on Problem is Big Brother was the cause I had crossed him because I didn t choose his handy remedy for coming of age polymorphous perversity as Freud put it. All throughout my life Buddha s four noble truths have been my companion having read about them at nineteen Truth Number One Life is Pain Now there s one thing If you remember to lift up each day s Pain as your big living sacrifice in your prayers One day if you re like me you ll treat that pain with simple equanimity A necessary step on your Eternal Path to Peace 0981480829 I was hoping for something historical This borders on fantasy and is too preachy I ll try the manga version instead 0981480829 This was an amazing functional piece that really bought Buddha to life for me 0981480829 The whole series of Virgin Comics novels is characterised by eye poppingly gorgeous artwork and this is no exception Shantanu Mohapatra brings the vibrant world of Kapilavastu to life and immerses us into the story of a young Siddharta a prince who would eventually abandon all his worldly possessions to become the greatest philosopher known to man. If you were ever curious about how the Legend of The Buddha came to be this might be an excellent start Although highly dramatized this proves an entertaining insight into the beginnings of the man that became a religion 0981480829 OK but I certainly feel like a interesting Life of Buddha should be possible I mean he is a fairly significant historical figure but if I read this GN and didn t know anything about Buddha I think I would wonder what the big deal was 0981480829
