The Vedanta-Sutras and their commentaries (including Srimad Bhagavatam): Volume 1
What is Brahman and how the world came into being? What is life? How is Brahman the origin of everything and what is its connection with the world and the living entities?

The Life of Sakyamuni Buddha
The idea of writing this book was in my mind while I was interested in the study of Buddhism at Taisho University, Tokyo. Then I had a chance to study as an India Cultural Scholarship Student in 1959 and Joined the Department of Buddhist Studies, at Delhi University.

There were many names of Bhikkhus, Bhikkhunis, lay-followers, and names of towns, mountains, and rivers which I never had seen with my eyes. During my three-year stay in India I visited almost all Buddhist excavated sights, read books, and talked with... Read More
