Mr. Aswattha Narayana Rao has done a real service to the cause of True Religion by expounding the life and Teachings of Buddha in simple and chaste kanarese. Much misapprehension exists in this country regarding this great religious reformer and Saint of India and if the little brochure helps in howerer small a degree in restoring him to his proper place in the spiritual firmament of our imotherland, it will have served its purpose. The author has succeeded this by reciting in parallel columns the quotations from the Upanishads and the Dharına pada.
