Buddhism and Buddhists in China
ISBN: 9781438522012 / Angielski / Miękka / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Buddhism is a religion which must be viewed from many angles.

The faithful student of Buddhist literature would be as far removed from understanding the working activities of a busy center of Buddhism in Burmah, Tibet or China today as a student of patristic literature would be from appreciating the Christian life of London or New York City. This volume is the third to be...

Beginning in the nineteenth century and continuing to the present day, both practitioners and admirers of Buddhism have proclaimed its compatibility with science. In Buddhism and Science, Donald S. Lopez Jr. explores how and why these two seemingly disparate modes of understanding the inner and outer universe have been so persistently linked. He argues that by presenting an ancient Asian tradition as compatible with--and even anticipating--scientific discoveries, European enthusiasts and Asian elites have sidestepped debates on the relevance of religion in the modern world that...

Glorification of the Buddha and the Bodhisatta
ISBN: 9783639281934 / Angielski / Miękka / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Buddha himself admitted that he was the Buddha and not a supernatural being.

It is impossible to perfectly identify the time when the first concept of glorification of the Buddha and the Bodhisatta was initiated in Buddhism. This is due to the fact that by the time the Canon was put to writing, the Buddha concept...
