After several years more of teaching and learning in Asia Marshall Stern felt it was necessary to update Meet The Buddha Kill The Buddha with a second edition. This edition contains almost a hundred new pages and goes a lot deeper in explaining this wonderful and practical religion with may or may not be a religion at all. What it teaches is that you don't have to suffer. Ever This is what the Buddha learned 2,500 years ago when he became enlightened and it is as true and relevant today as it was in India 2,500 years ago. In very plain and clear language, Marshall Stern takes you on a journey through the basics of Buddhism and most importantly, shows you why it is so important for you today.
