Zusammenfassung:"This fourth edition of Buddhism: Introducing the Buddhist Experience includes several revisions and new contents. First, there is additional information about the Vedic period of Hinduism from 1500 to 500 B.C.E. The Vedic texts during this period evolved from hymns to the deities to spiritual texts that were intended for persons who were initiated into the life of asceticism and meditation. These texts were composed around 700 B.C.E. Gautama Buddha lived in the fifth century B.C.E. His renunciation led him to asceticism and meditation that was not uncommon at that time."
