Acknowledgement
This small book titled Buddha, Buddhism and Non-Violence is an outcome of my incessant hardships of the last two years, and of course the auspicious coincidence, kind guidance and inspirations of several mother-like scholars and spiritual teachers as well as the high authorities of the Visva-Bharati to whom I owe my cordial gratitude in various ways.

To Ven. Prof. Wangchuk Dorjee Negi, Vice Chancellor, Central Institute of Higher Tibetan Studies, Sarnath, Varanasi and Ven. Geshe Dakpa Kalsang, Associate Professor in Buddhist Philosophy, Central Institute of Buddhist Studies, Choglamsar, Leh for inspiring and blessing me to serve and preserve the precious Buddha Dharma through translating, editing and restoring scriptures and treatises, as well as through composing texts.

Introduction
Šākyamuni Buddha, the embodiment of loving kindness, compassion and wisdom, demonstrated the spiritual deed of attaining Buddhahood under the Bodhi Tree at Vajrāsana (present Bodhgayä). Initially, He was an ordinary being like us. Later He underwent many hardships and ascetic practices for the attainment of this state. Thereafter, he did welfare to the sentient beings through giving sermons for about forty-five years. Since He was a skillful Teacher, He gave sermons to his disciples according to their interest, aspiration and mental capacity. Upon practicing His nectar-like Dharma, many beings attained the higher rebirth and definite goodness. In this way, they could achieve their spiritual goal of life. The attainment of the state of Omniscience is the ultimate goal of the Buddhists.
