Now in this "Guide to Buddhahood" which the Chinese call Hsuan Fo P'u you will actually get Buddhism arranged in a definite and regular order, beginning with the lowest scale of existence and ascending regularly through the different stages of progress till finally Paradise and Buddhahood are attained, and thus you find this book a true handbook of Buddhism-A sort of counterpart to the dictionary, as the chapters and sub-divisions are arranged in a logical instead of an Alphabetical order.
