Following the story of the historical Buddha`s life on earth, to each of the eight places of traditional pilgrimage, which are hallowed by the Buddha`s Birth, Enlightenment, Decease and other significant events. Other sites, which are important in the story of Gautama Buddha and have been rediscovered in recent years, are also described, and the author suggests where a search should be made for those that still remain hidden. He also discusses the problems that arose when attempts were made, little more than a hundred years ago, to identify these places in the light of the descriptions by Chinese pilgrims that have come down to us. He reveals the errors of that time, which have been rectified in the light of more recent evidence. This is a personal journey by a well-known travel-writer, whose lifelong interest in Buddhism leads him to present his own picture of the origin and development of the faith and to propose answers to questions that are still unresolved. The author has also provided an original plan for each of the sites visited as well as a full description of the place, and the book is illustrated by the author`s own photographs.

This book, illustrated with over 130 photographs, is an inspiring literary account of a journey both spiritual and adventurous. As a travelogue it guides the reader along a rediscovered pilgrim trail, once the most important in Asia. It predates by many centuries the well-known European pilgrim route to Santiago de Compostela. The path as taken by the Buddha himself was followed by millions of pilgrims over succeeding centuries. The path links the earliest Buddhist pilgrimage sites: - Lumbini, where Siddhartha Gautama was born - Bodhgaya, where Siddhartha attained enlightenment and became a Buddha or 'awakened one' - Sarnath, where the Buddha shared his insights - Kushinagara, where the Buddha passed away Buddhism largely disappeared from India after 1200 ce and the pilgrim trail gradually fell into obscurity. Maarten Olthof has drawn on Chinese monastic manuscripts to reconstruct the 600-mile route through India and Nepal, which he completed in 2003 on foot as a pilgrim. That journey, beginning as a one-man project, gradually developed into a spiritual adventure involving dozens of people and culminating in a demonstration for peace in Nepal, a country at the time torn apart by civil war. The pilgrimage helps the author face key moments in his life and offers him the healing power to achieve thorough acceptance of the past as it was and of the future as it will be. By literally following in Buddha's footsteps, he discovers that our life does not differ essentially from Siddhartha's. He comes to realize that the four pilgrimage sites are symbolic of crucial stages in life that each one of us goes through. As a biologist, he notes striking parallels between Buddhism and contemporary ecological thinking.

Alan Trevithick spent three years researching primary documents in New Delhi, Sarnath, Colombo, and London, in order to present this history (1874-1949) of the Mahabodhi Temple at Bodh Gaya. This is the first such account, and it details for the first time the administrative, legal and legislative activities which shaped the temple`s current status as one of the world`s most popular pilgrimage sites. Also included is an innovative biographical essay on Anagarika Dharmapala, the Sinhalese activist who first came to India in the late 19th century as a guest of the Theosohical society: his subsequent actions substantially affected the development of Bodh Gaya as a site of international importance.
