L. F. Habito / . ISBN.978-93-81218-46-4.Rs. 450
This book engages the reader with its story-telling style as it
illustrates the principles of Buddhism with concrete examples. Paying
special attention to the rise of Buddhist practice in the West, Habito
introduces the novice to Buddhist experience in its historical unity and the
variety of traditions that reflect its essence. Integrated into Habito's
text are five personal accounts by practicing Buddhists: on being a
Therevada Buddhist by the Venerable Dhammananda, Dr. Chatsumarn Kabilsing;
on being a Zen Buddhist by Jan Chozen Bays; on being a Tibetan Buddhist by
Judith Simmer Brown; on being a Pure Land Buddhist by Kenneth Tanaka; and on
living the Lotus by Virginia Straus
17. Nagarjuna & the Philosophy of Openness/ Nancy McCagney/ Rs. 400
Nancy McCagney demonstrates that the concept of space ('akasa') in
early Indian Mahayana Buddhism is the root metaphor for Nagarjuna's
understanding of 'sunyata', or openness. Nagarjuna's use of the term
'sunyata' was new, and contrasted with the word's use in Pali Buddhist
literature. By using the word to mean 'openness,' Nagarjuna was able to
elucidate, through a deeper analysis of impermanence, a consistent
philosophical foundation for the truth and efficacy of Gautama's Middle Way.
McCagney's book will be important for those studying Indian philosophy,
Buddhism, and the philosophy of religion.
18. Mediating the Power of Buddhas- Ritual in the Manjusrimulakalpa /
Glenn Wallis/ Rs. 600
Analyzes a seventh-century ritual manual that provides both a rich
source of information of medieval Buddhist life and addresses the ongoing
concern of how an adherent can encounter the power of a buddha.
Mediating the Power of Buddhas offers a fascinating analysis of the
seventh-century ritual manual, the Mañjusrimulakalpa. This medieval text is
intended to reveal the path into a ritual universe where the power of a
buddha abides. Author Glenn Wallis traces the strategies of the
Mañjusrimulakalpa to enable its committed reader to perfect the promised
ritual, uncovering what conditions must be met for ritual practice to
succeed and what personal characteristics practitioners must possess in
order to realize the ritual intentions of the Buddhist community. The manual
itself was written at a key point in Buddhist history, one when Hindu forms
of practice were still imitated and on the cusp of the shift from Mahayana
to Vajrayana (or Tantric) Buddhism. In addition, the Mañjusrimulakalpa
presents a rich compendium of Buddhist life in an earlier era, containing
information on a variety of its readers' concerns: astrology, astronomy,
medicine and healing, ritual practice, iconography, devotion, and
meditation.
