This book examines the way the military connection with three spiritual founders designed their spiritual legacy. It is one of the more startling facts of military history that the founders of three of the four "great religions" - Judaism, Buddhism, and Islam - were also completed field generals with considerable experience in commanding men in struggle. Among these, Muhammad, fought eight battles and was wounded twice, once almost fatally. Another, Siddhartha Gautama (later to become the Buddha), observed a lot battlefield carnage that he suffered a psychological collapse. Moses got become a lot a "god-intoxicated" personality that it's an acceptable suspicion that he, like the Buddha, was murdered. Indeed, got the experiences of these men in battle not been so successful, it is quite possible that their successes as religious market leaders would never have occurred. For all three, battle and religious beliefs were so tightly intertwined in their personalities that it's difficult to discern where the influence of one concluded and the other started out. This book tries to explore the military lives of Moses, the Buddha, and Muhammad, and the role their battle experiences played in their spiritual lives.
