Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing an overall interpretation of the Buddhist monument Borobudur in Indonesia, this book looks at Mahayana Buddhist religious ideas and practices that could have informed Borobudur, including both the narrative reliefs and the Buddha images. The author explores a version of the classical Mahayana that foregrounds the importance of the visual in relation to Buddhist philosophy, meditation, devotion, and ritual. The book goes on to show that the architects of Borobudur designed a visual world in which the Buddha appeared in a variety of forms and could be interpreted in three ways: by realizing the true nature of his teaching, through visionary experience, and by encountering his numinous presence in images. Furthermore, the book analyses a particularly comprehensive and programmatic expression of Mahayana Buddhist visual culture so as to enrich the theoretical discussion of the monument. It argues that the relief panels of Borobudur do not passively illustrate, but rather creatively "picture" selected passages from texts. Presenting new material, the book contributes immensely to a new and better understanding of the significance of the Borobudur for the field of Buddhist and Religious Studies.

Book excerpt: "This glorious ninth-century Buddhist monument - the largest Buddhist monument in the world - stands in the midst of the lush Kedu plain of central Java in Indonesia, where it is visited annually by over a million people. Borobudur consists of over a thousand exquisite relief sculptures extending along its many terraces for a total distance of more than a mile. The monument is constructed to symbolically represent the pilgrimage to enlightenment. The visitor ascends Borobudur, past scenes depicting the world of desire, through the life story of the Buddha and the heroic deeds of other famous enlightened beings, finally arriving at the great circular terraces at the very top of the structure, symbolizing the formless world of emptiness and the attainment of enlightenment. With over eighty color photographs and an informative text, this book celebrates the art and architecture of this famous Buddhist monument. This is the first volume to be published since the ten-year restoration and reconstruction of Borobudur was completed in 1985. In addition to illuminating the archaeological history, religious symbolism, and cultural context of the monument, it presents a detailed description of the sculptured panels and their significance in Buddhist history and philosophy. This book not only provides a scholarly introduction to Borobudur and its historical context, but it also retells - in text and stunning color photographs - the major stories illustrated in the hundreds of bas-relief panels that rank among the masterpieces of Asian and Buddhist art." --

Book excerpt: Borobudur is not Temple Ńâmô bhägâvâtyai āryātārāyai It is time for history which is considered "sacred", will fall by the results of science that clarifies historical records before, and no one should be surprised by this phenomenon, our ancestors are "Aryans" Ancestors of the Indonesian Aryans The latest study, led by geneticist David Reich of Harvard University, was published in March 2018 and 92 scholars from around the world in the disciplines of genetics, history, archeology and anthropology This study shows that there have been two major migrations to India in the last 10,000 years: 1. Out of Africa (OoA) migrants who have reached India around 65,000, this Zagrosian mixes with previous inhabitants in India as early as 7,000 - 3,000 BC, giving birth to the "Harappan" civilization 2. After 2000 BC, came immigrants (Schytia / Sakya / Sakkas / Arya), They brought Sanskrit early or basic from Sanskrit New cultural practices such as sacrifice rituals, all of which form the basis of early Hindu / Vedic culture, are based on the teachings of our ancestor "Dharma" Tony Joseph, author of the book Early Indians: The Story of Our Ancestors and Where We Came From, published by Juggernaut wrote that a thousand years earlier people (Ras Aryan) also traveled to Europe, replacing and mixing with farmers there, giving birth to new cultures and spreading Indo-European language Other genetic studies have proven that there are many nations migrating to India, originating from Southeast Asia, strengthened by the many Austro-Asian speakers That the Aryans were not the first inhabitants of India and the Harappan "Dravidian" civilization existed long before their arrival. Indeed "Dravidas" are their ancestors of Indians They have campaigned to change the school curriculum and erase every word that mentions "Aryan immigration" from history books The Arya race is the "Schtya" of the Çaka Nation of the Indonesian Archipelago before the advance, the "Jawi" nation of the Çaka descendant nation: 1.

Download or read book Entering the Dharmadh tu written by Jan Fontein and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-03-20 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gandavyūha, a sacred text of Mahāyāna Buddhism, is an allegorical tale of the pilgrimage of a youth named Sudhana, who visits fifty-three spiritual mentors to receive their instruction in the Conduct of the Bodhisattva. His miraculous journey on the path towards Enlightenment inspired the sculptors of Borobudur (9th century C.E.) to illustrate the tale in 460 bas-reliefs on the higher galleries of this great Javanese monument. During the 1920s N.J. Krom and F.D.K. Bosch identified many of the panels, but most of their findings, written in Dutch, remained unnoticed. Entering the Dharmadhātu compares the complete set of panels with three early Chinese translations of Central Asian and Indian Sanskrit manuscripts of the Gandavyūha. This first identification of the entire series in English concludes with a discussion of the new perspectives on the meaning, symbolism, and architecture of Borobudur that a reading of the Gandavyūha suggests.

Download or read book Cultural Landscape Management at Borobudur Indonesia written by Masanori Nagaoka and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-22 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume investigates a historical account of the development of landscapes management at Borobudur. In the 1970s and 1980s, there was large scale heritage conservation intervention of the Borobudur Temple by UNESCO and a simultaneous attempt of a wider landscapes management at Borobudur. But in the late 1980s and early 1990s, a global heritage discourse of an enlarged value system emerged. This discourse embraced issues such as cultural landscape, living history, intangible values, vernacular heritage, and urban landscapes with community involvement. The early 1990s saw a move against the European-dominated discourse of heritage as well as the concept of authenticity in the World Heritage system and other European-oriented classifications. The Asian experience in heritage discourse has begun to have a significant impact on the European standard. Additionally, in the 1990s, there was a gradual recognition of the concept of cultural landscape, which differed both within Asia and between Asia and Europe. These different ideas are evident in the case of the Borobudur Temple and its 1991 nomination to the World Heritage List. This book focuses how the management of the Borobudur historical monument and its landscapes was developed and reached current exclusive national legislative framework and set as an example for others sites in the region and for other regions to consider.
Download or read book Esoteric Buddhism in Mediaeval Maritime Asia written by Andrea Acri and published by ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute. This book was released on 2016-09-05 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume advocates a trans-regional, and maritime-focused, approach to studying the genesis, development and circulation of Esoteric (or Tantric) Buddhism across Maritime Asia from the seventh to the thirteenth centuries ce. The book lays emphasis on the mobile networks of human agents (‘Masters’), textual sources (‘Texts’) and images (‘Icons’) through which Esoteric Buddhist traditions spread. Capitalising on recent research and making use of both disciplinary and area-focused perspectives, this book highlights the role played by Esoteric Buddhist maritime networks in shaping intra-Asian connectivity. In doing so, it reveals the limits of a historiography that is premised on land-based transmission of Buddhism from a South Asian ‘homeland’, and advances an alternative historical narrative that overturns the popular perception regarding Southeast Asia as a ‘periphery’ that passively received overseas influences. Thus, a strong point is made for the appreciation of the region as both a crossroads and rightful terminus of Buddhist cults, and for the re-evaluation of the creative and transformative force of Southeast Asian agents in the transmission of Esoteric Buddhism across mediaeval Asia.
