Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hinduism and Buddhism" in 3 volumes is a work by Charles Eliot whose aim is to give a sketch of Indian thought or Indian religion, for the two terms are nearly equivalent in the book, and of its history and influence in Asia. As the author pointed out, it is impossible to separate Hinduism from Buddhism, for without it Hinduism could not have assumed its medieval shape and some forms of Buddhism, such as Lamaism, countenance Brahmanic deities and ceremonies, while in Java and Cambodia the two religions were avowedly combined and declared to be the same. Neither is it convenient to separate the fortunes of Buddhism and Hinduism outside India from their history within it, for although the importance of Buddhism depends largely on its foreign conquests, the forms which it assumed in its new territories can be understood only by reference to the religious condition of India at the periods when successive missions were despatched. This carefully crafted DigiCat ebook is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hinduism and Buddhism, Vol. 3 of 3: An Historical Sketch In any case the records declare that the Indian Emperor showed the greatest solicitude for the spiritual welfare of Ceylon and, though they are obviously embellished, there is no reason to doubt their substantial accuracy1. The Sinhalese tradition agrees on the whole with the data supplied by Indian inscrip tions and Chinese pilgrims. The names of missionaries mentioned in the Dipa and Mahavamsas recur on urns found at Sanchi and on its gateways are pictures in relief which appear to represent the transfer of a branch of the Bo-tree in solemn pro cession to Some destination which, though unnamed, may be conjectured to be Ceylonz. The absence of Mahinda's name in Asoka's inscriptions is certainly suspicious, but the Sinhalese chronicles give the names of other missionaries correctly and a mere argumentum ex silentio cannot disprove their testimony on this important point.

Download or read book Hinduism And Buddhism An Historical Sketch Vol 3 written by Sir Charles Eliot and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-12-01 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Charles Eliot's "Hinduism and Buddhism, An Historical Sketch, Vol. 3" is a gigantic work that provides a comprehensive analysis of the origins, development, and historical circumstances of Hinduism and Buddhism. This scholarly masterwork demonstrates Eliot's remarkable comprehension of both of the main Asian religions and their effect on Indian and global cultures and society. Volume 3 dives into Hinduism's ancient roots, chronicling its development from the earliest Vedic traditions to the diverse and multifaceted belief systems which developed over time. He explores Hinduism's philosophical, mythical, and ritual parts, providing readers an in-depth knowledge of its many customs and beliefs. Furthermore, the book exhaustively traces Buddhism's rise, its founder, Siddhartha Gautama (Buddha), and the spread of this transforming spiritual movement throughout Asia. Eliot investigates not only the tenets and customs of Buddhism, but also its historical relationships with Hinduism and the larger social milieu. Some stories are brutal and weird, while others creep up on you and draw you in slowly. This version of "Hinduism and Buddhism, An Historical Sketch, Vol. 3" is both modern and legible, with an eye-catching new cover and professionally typeset manuscript.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hinduism and Buddhism, Vol. 1 of 3: An Historical Sketch The present work was begun in 1907 and was practically com plete when the war broke out, but many circumstances such as the difficulty of returning home, unavoidable delays in printing and correcting proofs, and political duties have deferred its publication until now. In the interval many important books dealing with Hinduism and Buddhism have appeared, but having been resident in the Far East (with one brief exception) since 1912 I have found it exceedingly difficult to keep in touch with recent literature. Much of it has reached me only in the last few months and I have often been compelled to notice new facts and views in footnotes only, though I should have wished to modify the text. Besides living for some time in the Far East, I have paid many visits to India, some of which were of considerable length, and have travelled in all the countries of which I treat except Tibet. I have however seen something of Lamaism near Dar jeeling, in northern China and in Mongolia. But though I have in several places described the beliefs and practices prevalent at the present day, my object is to trace the history and develop ment of religion in India and elsewhere with occasional remarks on its latest phases. I have not attempted to give a general account of contemporary religious thought in India or China and still less to forecast the possible result of present tendencies.

Download or read book Hinduism and Buddhism Vol 1 3 written by Charles Eliot and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-18 with total page 867 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Eliot's monumental work, 'Hinduism and Buddhism (Vol. 1-3)', is a comprehensive exploration of Eastern spiritual traditions. Through detailed analysis and precise scholarship, Eliot delves into the historical, philosophical, and cultural aspects of Hinduism and Buddhism, providing readers with a deep understanding of these ancient belief systems. His writing is clear and concise, making complex ideas accessible to a wide audience. The book is a valuable resource for students of religion and philosophy, as well as anyone interested in the intersection of spirituality and culture. Eliot's meticulous research and insightful commentary offer a nuanced perspective on the evolution and significance of Hinduism and Buddhism in the global context. This seminal work remains a foundational text in the study of Eastern religions. Charles Eliot, a renowned scholar and diplomat, drew on his extensive knowledge of Asian cultures and languages to write 'Hinduism and Buddhism'. His experiences living in Asia and interacting with practitioners of these faiths informed his nuanced understanding of their teachings and practices. Eliot's background as a colonial administrator in India lent him a unique perspective on the intersections between Eastern spirituality and Western imperialism. I recommend 'Hinduism and Buddhism (Vol. 1-3)' to readers seeking a comprehensive and insightful exploration of Eastern religions. Eliot's meticulous research and engaging writing style make this work a must-read for anyone interested in deepening their understanding of Hinduism, Buddhism, and the broader spiritual traditions of Asia.
