Download or read book Popular Buddhist Texts from Nepal written by Todd T. Lewis and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2000-09-07 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates how popular ritual texts and story narratives have shaped the religious life and culture of the only surviving South Asian Mahayana Buddhist society, the Newars of Kathmandu. It begins with an account of the Newar Buddhist community's history and its place within the religious environment of Nepal and proceeds to build around five popular translations, several of which were known across Asia: the Srngabheri Avadana, the Simhalasarthabahu Avadana, the Tara, the Mahakala Vratas, and the Pancaraksa. Lewis documents how the respective texts have been domesticated in Nepal's art and architecture, healing traditions, and rituals. He shows how they provide paradigmatic case studies that transcend the Nepalese context, illustrating universal practices or issues in all Buddhist communities, such as gender relations and stupa veneration, the role of merchants, ethnicity, violence, devotions to celestial bodhisattvas by kings and women, and the role of mantra recitations and healing rituals in the lives of Buddhists.

Book excerpt: Glenn M. Smith was raised on the west coast of British Columbia, Canada. His greatest loves at the time were being out in nature and swimming in the pristine lakes of central BC. After raising a family and running a successful healing practice he moved on to create more in his life. After meeting his muse a story began to come to his mind and his pen started to flow. The writing of Lotus Petal was cathartic at times. Weaved through the story are the beliefs and philosophies that have served the author throughout his life. As Tin evolves with his spiritual development, his destiny in life becomes very clear to him. He must accept and embrace all of who he is to realize his truth. As he opens to the support that is all around him he flourishes. This simple tale tells how the boy, Tin, born amid great expectations, is torn from his family by Mephisto's men and sets out on a journey of learning and self-discovery. He briefly meets the enticing Lotus Petal, and when she vanishes, his goal is to find her. His learning experiences with many mentors over several years give him mystic knowledge. Tin sets out to confront Mephisto and uses his special powers to depose him, bringing prosperity to his people, and reuniting him with Lotus Petal. It's a spiritual parable that is meant to both entertain and educate the reader...
Download or read book Early Buddhist Art of China and Central Asia Volume 2 The Eastern Chin and Sixteen Kingdoms Period in China and Tumshuk Kucha and Karashahr in Central Asia 2 vols written by Marylin Martin Rhie and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 1635 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume two of Marylin Rhie’s widely acclaimed and formative multi-volume work presents a comprehensive, scholarly and detailed study of the Buddhist art of China and Central Asia from 316-439 A.D. during the formative early periods of Buddhism in the Eastern Chin and Sixteen Kingdoms Period. Using texts translated from the Chinese together with stylistic and technical analyses, the chronology and sources of the art are more clearly defined than in previous studies for the regions of South and North China (other than Kansu) and the important sites of Tumshuk, Kucha and Karashahr on the Northern Silk Route in eastern Central Asia. Furthermore, by incorporating extensive religious and historical materials, this work not only contributes to clarifying the regional characteristics of the art, but also offers new insights into the broader, interregional relationships of this politically fragmented period.
