Book

"Put Buddha's teachings next to the Bible. (Die Reden Gotamo Buddha's Leipzig. W. Friedrich. Translator's name is Neumann.) This is not a cheap book: it costs the price of a cow. But I assure you it is worth more. And for this, get the books of all the founders of the religions. The founders of the religions were all spiritual men. Excellent spirits, either sent to us by Heaven or they themselves, out of love, undertook to incarnate. Each adapted his teachings to his own time and his own nation, but each made the greatest truths the core of his teachings. The basis of their doctrine is the same, but each expands the other. And where they differ, it is easy to see that it is because each speaks to a people of different minds and morals. But they are the most valuable people!"
