The Buddha and the Terrorist

release date: Dec 19, 2022
The Buddha and the Terrorist
Among all the experiences of the Buddha, his eye-to-eye encounter with a terrorist is perhaps the most relevant and vital for those of us caught in the binds of the early 21st century. Once upon a time in northern India, there lived a violent and fearsome outcaste called Angulimala (''necklace of fingers''). He terrorised towns and villages in order to try to gain control of the state, murdering people and adding their fingers to his gruesome necklace. The Buddha set out to meet Angulimala, and with the power of love and compassion he persuaded him to renounce violence and take responsibility for his past actions. Thus Angulimala was transformed. The Buddha and the Terrorist brings a message for our time about the importance of looking for the root causes of violence, and of finding peaceful means to end terror. This revised edition includes a new Prologue, ''Talking to Terrorists'', in which Satish Kumar discusses how we can best deal with the phenomenon of international terrorism. By telling the tale of the pitiless, blood-splattered Angulimala, activist Satish Kumar reminds us that when the Buddha deliberately and compassionately faced real fear, the fear in that real face evaporated.
