The Buddha’s messages are practical, non-religious, compatible with any faith. Attractive images bring clarity to the his original meaning for easy understanding of advanced concepts in simple words.

We will need an illustrator. The sample images are provisional ideas. We envision a book with 48 quotes however this could change. We have almost unlimited potential quotes, allowing for selective elimination.
