Story of Buddha by Hisashi Ota

What is happiness? What's the point of living the way I do, day in and day out? Twenty-five hundred years ago, in his youth, Buddha (Sakyamuni) had the same nagging questions that we do today. He never avoided them or gave up the search for answers, but devoted himself earnestly to discovering the meaning of life. That search is the starting point of Buddhism. Precisely because he agonized more than others, Buddha also attained a happiness greater than that of anyone else. In our desire to live with strength and good cheer, the life of Buddha is sure to provide invaluable insight.
Born in Shimane Prefecture in 1970, Hisashi Ota graduated from Nagoya University's School of Science. His other works include Manga de wakaru bukkyo nyumon (Understanding through Comics: Introduction to Buddhism), which is forthcoming in English from Ichimannendo Publishing, Inc.
