Life of Shakyamuni Buddha : Buddhist History 101 – Ep. 62

April 15, 2016

In this podcast Professor Thurman gives a brilliant compelling account of Buddha’s birth and path to Enlightenment. The account is enriched by his wide-ranging scholarship and familiarity with so many different sources of Buddha Shakyamuni’s life story.

This episode is an excerpt from the lecture given at Tibet House US in New York City, January 6, 2016, as part of a course called “Force for Good:Ā Buddhist Sources and Practices Beyond Religion.”
