Synopsis
Excerpt from An Introduction to Mahāyāna Buddhism: With Especial Reference to Chinese and Japanese Phases
Dear Mrs. Rhys-Davids,
In dedicating to you this exposition of the bare essentials of the Mahayana philosophy, I feel that I must explain something of its scope and aim.
In its original form the present work was part of a thesis which, when presented to the Japanese cathedral, the Nishi Honganji, secured me my Buddhist degree, and an honorary ordination as a Buddhist priest. In consequence I hope that it may be considered to represent, as far as it goes, what the Japanese Buddhists believe to be true, and what they consider accurate.
In presenting the book in a new dress before the Western public, a good deal of revision has taken place, but this has been chiefly a matter of omission and simplification. All technical details have been deleted, and any unusual idea or term has had placed after it a few words of elementary elucidation.

An Introduction to MahÄyÄna Buddhism (Classic Reprint)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the philosophical underpinnings of Mahayana Buddhism, tracing its roots and evolution within the broader tapestry of Indian philosophy. The author explores the key tenets of Mahayana, including the concepts of the Absolute, the Bodhicitta, and the nature of Nirvana. The book analyzes how these ideas influenced Mahayana's distinctive approach to epistemology, logic, and the pursuit of enlightenment, diverging from the earlier Hinayana tradition. By comparing Mahayana to other philosophical systems, the author reveals its profound insights into the nature of reality and the human condition. This book offers a comprehensive examination of Mahayana Buddhism's core concepts, providing readers with a deeper understanding of its philosophical significance and its enduring relevance to the quest for truth and enlightenment. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781440072543_0
