Download or read book Buddhist Saints in India written by Reginald A. Ray and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999-09-30 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The issue of saints is a difficult and complicated problem in Buddhology. In this magisterial work, Ray offers the first comprehensive examination of the figure of the Buddhist saint in a wide range of Indian Buddhist evidence. Drawing on an extensive variety of sources, Ray seeks to identify the "classical type" of the Buddhist saint, as it provides the presupposition for, and informs, the different major Buddhist saintly types and subtypes. Discussing the nature, dynamics, and history of Buddhist hagiography, he surveys the ascetic codes, conventions and traditions of Buddhist saints, and the cults both of living saints and of those who have "passed beyond." Ray traces the role of the saints in Indian Buddhist history, examining the beginnings of Buddhism and the origin of Mahayana Buddhism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian Saint; Or Buddha and Buddhism: A Sketch, Historical and Critical The following pages have been written in a feeling of cordial interest, indeed of love and admiration for the historical character they seek in some degree to present, and an earnest desire to render both to him and the faith that has flowed from his thought and life - while abstaining utterly, if possible, from any bias or partiality - equal and exact justice. How far, if at all, this desire may have become realization, it must be for the intelligent reader to decide. It is difficult, very difficult, to penetrate the spirit and genius of a faith so remote, and in many respects foreign to our own, to interpret it, take its measure justly, weigh it well. Still more difficult, perhaps, to one who should have outgrown, in some degree at least, as is hoped, the Christian limitation, to preserve still the perfect poise, to escape prepossession on the other side, and draw the picture without a shade of flattery. The writing of these pages was done for the most part nearly four years since. Various circumstances, not necessary here to name, have conspired to prevent an earlier publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.
