HAHA interjection of “humorist”.

Hermann Hesse, “Siddhartha: A Novel”, 1922 is loosely based on the life Siddhartha Gautama (born 563 BC- died 483 BC).
Siddhartha Gautama is an example of a “humanist’; and, he was the founder of Buddhism.
Susan B. Katz, “The Story of Gandhi (1869-1948): A Biography Book for the New Reader”, 2020 was “biography” writing.
Mohandas Gandhi (1869-1948) is an example of a “humanist”; and, he was the founder of modern India.
Above, I show the Arthur Koestler “Stages of Objectivity-Subjectivity” curve. “Biography” is more objective than “Novel” writings. “Biography” is more subjective than “History” writings.
Here I presented: Susan B. Katz, “The Story of Gandhi: A Biography Book for New Readers”, 2020 which was a children’s biography book.
Mohandas Gandhi (born 1869-died 1948) was a “Hindu”. Siddhartha Gautama (born 563 BC-died 483 BC0 was a “Buddhist”.
“The inclusion of Buddhists, Jains, and Sikhs within Hinduism is part of the Indian legal system. The 1955 “Hindu Marriage Act’ “[defines] as Hindus all Buddhist, Jains, Sikhs and anyone who is not a Christian, Muslim, Parsee (Zoroastrian) or Jew”.
Susan B. Katz has written other children’s books . These books give a view of the world at a youth-level, and are recommended.
