Source Material
The Great Quest is based on the Pali Buddhist scriptures:
- Digha Nikaya - the "long collection"
- Majjhima Nikaya - the "middle-length collection"
- Samyutta Nikaya - the "grouped collection"
- Anguttara Nikaya - the "further-factored collection"
- Khuddaka Nikaya - the "collection of little texts"
and from historical Buddhist commentaries & many biographies, which were all based on the scriptures.
Also from the writer, Steve Weissman's understanding coming from his own meditation experience.
