The Buddhist Indus Script and Scriptures : on the so-called Bhaikṣukī or Saindhavī script of the Sāṃmitīyas and their Canon | Dimitrov, Dragomir | xvii,256p. | Harrassowitz | 2020 | 13,838円 | Buddhist calligraphy -- Indus script -- Manuscripts, Indic The Buddhist Indus script (Sindhulipi or Saindhavī) refers to an Indian script with “arrow-headed” characters which the British Indologist Cecil Bendall (1856–1906) noticed for the first time in a twelfth-century manuscript, and which later scholars tentatively called “Bhaiksukī”. With the help of some Tibetan sources it is actually possible not only to establish its original name, i.e. “Saindhavī”, but also to prove a direct connection between this script and the Saindhava monks or the Sāṃmitīyas. Despite the importance of this Buddhist school, until recently its original canonical literature was considered to have been lost. |

Three Pillars of Skepticism in Classical India: Nagarjuna, Jayarasi, and Sri Harsa. | Mills, Ethan | xxxvi,217p pap. | Lexington Books | 2018 | 9,238円 | Skepticism -- India -- Jayarāśibhaṭṭa, active 8th century -- Nāgārjuna, 1911-1998 -- Śrīharṣa, active 12th century This book argues that the philosophical history of India contains a tradition of skepticism about philosophy represented most clearly by three figures: Nāgārjuna, Jayarāśi, and Śrī Harṣa. Furthermore, understanding this tradition ought to be an important part of our contemporary metaphilosophical reflections on the purposes and limits of philosophy. |

From Stone to Flesh: a short history of the Buddha. | Lopez Jr., Donald S. | ix,289p. pap. | U. of Chicago Press | 2013 | 4,026円 | Buddhism -- Gautama Buddha -- Cult -- Europe -- History Lopez provides an engaging history of depictions of the Buddha from classical accounts and medieval stories to the testimonies of European travelers, diplomats, soldiers, and missionaries. He shows that centuries of hostility toward the Buddha changed dramatically in the nineteenth century, when the teachings of the Buddha, having disappeared from India by the fourteenth century, were read by European scholars newly proficient in Asian languages. At the same time, the traditional view of the Buddha persisted in Asia, where he was revered as much for his supernatural powers as for his philosophical insights. From Stone to Flesh follows the twists and turns of these Eastern and Western notions of the Buddha, leading finally to his triumph as the founder of a world religion. |

Toward a New Image of Paramartha: Yogacara and Tathagatagarbha Buddhims revisited. | Ching Keng | viii,288p. pap. | Bloomsbury | 2024(23) | 6,754円 | Paramārtha, 499-569 -- Tathāgatagarbha -- Yogācāra Toward a new image of Paramārtha : Yogācāra and Tathāgatagarbha Buddhism revisited / Ching Keng Engaging with the digitalized Chinese Buddhist canon, Ching Keng draws on clues from a long-lost Dunhuang fragment and considers its striking similarities with Paramartha's corpus with respect to terminology, style of phrasing, and doctrines. In this cutting-edge interpretation of the concept of jiexing, Keng demystifies the image of Paramartha and makes the case that the fragment holds the key to recover his original teachings. |

Bones, Stones, and Buddhist Monks : Collected Papers on the Archaeology, Epigraphy, and Texts of Monastic Buddhism in India. | Schopen, Gregory | xvii,298p. | U. of Hawaii Press | 1997 | 6,380円 | Monastic and religious life (Buddhism) -- India -- History The present volume provides an essential foundation for a social history of Indian Buddhist monasticism. Challenging the popular stereotype that represented the accumulation of merit as the domain of the layperson while monks concerned themselves with more sophisticated realms of doctrine and meditation, Professor Schopen problematizes many assumptions about the lay-monastic distinction by demonstrating that monks and nuns, both the scholastic elites and the less learned, participated actively in a wide range of ritual practices and institutions that have heretofore been judged 'popular,' from the accumulation and transfer of merit; to the care of deceased relatives; to serving as sponsors and donors, rather than always the recipients, of gifts; to (possibly) the coining of counterfeit currency. |

A Few Good Men : The Bodhisattva Path according to The Inquiry of Ugra (Ugraparipṛcchā) | Nattier, Jan | xvi,383p. | U. of Hawaii Press | 2003 | 5,280円 | Tripiṭaka Sūtrapiṭaka Ugrapariprcchā -- Commentaries -- Mahayana Buddhism A Few Good Men is a study and translation of The Inquiry of Ugra (Ugraparipṛcchâ), one of the most influential Mahâyâna sutras on the bodhisattva path, but also one of the most neglected texts in Western treatments of Buddhism. To achieve a better understanding of the universe of ideas, activities, and institutional structures within which early self-proclaimed bodhisattvas lived, the author first considers the Ugra as a literary document, employing new methodological tools to examine the genre to which it belongs, the age of its extant versions, and their relationships to one another. She goes on to challenge the dominant notions that the Mahâyâna emerged as a "reform" of earlier Buddhism and offered lay people an "easier option."A Few Good Men will be compelling reading for scholars and practitioners alike and others interested in the history of Indian Buddhism and the formation of Mahâyâna.

Sīmās : foundations of Buddhist religion. | Carbine, Jason A. & Erik W. Davis (ed.) | xii,387p. | U. of Hawaii Press | 2022 | 5,115円 | Boundaries -- Religious aspects -- Therav^ada Buddhism -- Monastic and religious life -- Southeast Asia Sīmās were established early on as places where core legal acts (kamma), including ordination, of the monastic community (sangha) took place according to their disciplinary codes. Sīmās continue to be deployed in the creation of monastic lineages and to function in diverse ways for monastics and non-monastics alike. As foundations of Buddhist religion, sīmās are used to sustain, revitalize, or reform Buddhist practices, notions of identity, and conceptualizations of time and history. In the last few decades, scholarly awareness of and expertise on sīmās has developed to a point where a volume like this one, which examines sīmās across numerous cultural contexts and scholarly fields of inquiry, is both possible and needed. Sīmā traditions expressed in the Theravāda cultures of Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka constitute the dominant focus of the work; a chapter on East Asia raises questions of historical transmission beyond these areas. |

Buddhist Ethics and Theistic Ethics: A Synthesis 5. Buddhist Soteriology and the God of Abraham 6. Pluralism Part 1 7. Pluralism Part 2 |
