The Earliest Suttas Or Sacred Sayings by Charles F. Horne is a book that presents a collection of some of the earliest Buddhist texts, known as the Suttas, which were originally written in the Pali language. The book provides a translation of these ancient texts, which contain the core teachings of the Buddha, as well as his discourses and conversations with his followers.The book is divided into three parts, each of which covers a different aspect of the Buddha's teachings. The first part focuses on the Four Noble Truths, which are the foundation of Buddhist philosophy. The second part covers the Noble Eightfold Path, which outlines the steps that a person must take in order to achieve enlightenment. The final part of the book contains a selection of other important teachings, including the Buddha's teachings on karma, rebirth, and meditation.Throughout the book, Horne provides commentary and analysis of the texts, helping readers to understand their meaning and significance. He also provides historical context for the texts, explaining the cultural and religious background in which they were written.Overall, The Earliest Suttas Or Sacred Sayings is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Buddhism, as well as for scholars and students of religion and philosophy. It provides a clear and accessible introduction to some of the most important texts in Buddhist literature, and offers insights into the teachings and beliefs of this ancient and influential tradition.THIS 32 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Sacred Books and Early Literature of the East: India and Buddhism, by Charles F.
