Edmond Gore Alexander Holmes (1850-1936) was an English writer and poet. His most wellknown works are The Creed of Christ (1905), The Creed of Buddha (1908) and The Creed of My Heart (1912). Words from his The Triumph of Love (1903) were set to music by the composer Charles Villiers Stanford. He was also a schools inspector and his subsequent writings on education are taken as an early statement of 'progressive' and 'child-centred' positions. Later works come close to theosophy. The Creed of Buddha (1908) is his most significant work. A sympathetic study of Buddha and his teachings, the book highlights the importance of Eastern philosophical religion and made Holmes one of the few Western scholars to fully appreciate and explore the deeper meanings of Buddha's wonderful scheme of life.
