Description
Drawn from the Buddhist scriptures, Traveling to the other Shore contains a treasury of stories from the life of the Buddha and his great disciples. Structured around the six perfections of generosity, discipline, patience, diligence, concentration, and wisdom, the Buddha teaches his disciples how to live out these principles in their lives, providing guidance for our own lives.
In his forty years of teaching, the Buddha left behind teachings that would last for over two millennia. In Traveling to the other Shore, Venerable Master Hsing Yun has selected key stories from the life of the Buddha and his great disciples that teach the Six Perfections of Buddhism: giving, discipline, patience, diligence, concentration, and wisdom. Collected from across the vast Buddhist scriptures, these stories show both the depth of the Buddha’s wisdom and the warmth of his compassion. Traveling to the other Shore is an excellent way for readers to learn from the Buddha’s life and practice.
