Beyond what he himself tells us in the journals of his journeys in India and Ceylon from the years 399 to 414 in search of the Buddhist Books of Discipline, little is known about the Chinese monk Fâ-hien, who lived in the fifth century. But when he travels in the footsteps of the Buddha, returning to the holy sites, his astute observations reveal a timeless enlightenment. traveling via Ceylon and the South East Asian Islands from China to India and returning to China. Khotan, Skardu, Crossings of the Indus, Udyana, Gandhara, Takshashila, Peshawar, Nagara, Mathura, Kosala, Kapilavastu, Vaishali, Rejagriha, Gaya, Patna, and Ceylon are among the locations the monk has visited.

It won’t be difficult for readers to find hundreds of books on the subject. This book merely concentrates on the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path as the essence of Buddhism.
The Japanese Samurai were the perfect audience for Zen. When the Japanese soldiers who became samurai accepted and modified the great moral concepts of Buddhism, they produced an austere philosophy of exceptional beauty and depth. Ancient warrior monks showed their distinctive requirements of strong control over body and mind.
