Description

About The Book: The Buddhist Catechism (1881) by Henry S. Olcott is a foundational text aimed at presenting the core teachings of Buddhism in a clear, accessible, and systematic format. Written in question-and-answer style, the catechism covers the life of the Buddha, key doctrines such as the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, ethical principles, and Buddhist cosmology. It was created to educate both Buddhists and non-Buddhists, emphasizing rationality and aligning with modern perspectives. Widely used in Sri Lankan schools, it remains influential in promoting Buddhist understanding and has contributed to the global spread of Buddhist teachings.
