"This book is about the life of one of the most prominent cultural heroes of humanity. The discoveries that were made by the person named Siddhartha Gautama changed this world forever, showed to all creatures the way to the happiness that does not depend on circumstances. Buddha stated that the source of this state was the true nature of every creature – the clear light of the mind, which cannot be damaged, beyond the limits of birth, senescence, death, loss; free and shining, without a center and limits..." "Do not believe traditions only because for many years they were observed in many countries. Do not believe anything for the reason that many people assert this for a lot of years in succession. Do not believe anything only because someone else said it to you, or the authority of some sage, priest supports it, or it is written down in some holy scripture. Do not believe visions and revelations that, in your opinion, are sent to you by God. Trust only what proved true after long testing and what is of benefit for you and other people."

What prompted Ukrainian writers of the 19th century to undertake translation, when there was virtually no audience for these translations? What conditioned the choice of certain texts to be translated? Why, finally, did the Ukrainian translation become an object of particularly brutal tsarist persecution, and later – persecution by the communist regime?
