Hardbound. Condition: As New. New. Contents Introduction. Foreword. 1. The laws of the Vinayapitaka and their interpretation. 2. The primitive Paribrajakas a theory of their origin. Appendix. 3. The Sangha and the Patimokkha development of the latter. 4. The Patimokkha as a ritual. 5. The growth of the Buddhist coenobium. 6. The internal polity of a Buddhist Sangha. 7. Communal life at an Avasa. It is not yet time to dilate on the importance of the subject of the present thesis in ancient Indian history. The history of ancient India is still in the making it is yet in a temporary vagueness of outline as of things half seen and processes half realised. Yet the assertion may be confidently made that as the whole economy of ancient India life and culture is more intimately realised by us the important place of Buddhist monasticism in it will appear with increasing clearness. Its external relations its influences on society at large it contributions to cultural history all these topics are yet in the dream land of theory. Buddhist monasticism itself has been like all other historic institutions a gradual process changing under pressure of its sociological environments and its own inner principle of evolution. Buddhist monastic life in India as pictured to us in the records of the Chinese travellers is far different from the monastic life that is reflected in the Vinayapitaka. 144 pp.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 3rd Edition. Contents: 1. The primitive sangha. 2. The asoka-satavahana age 250 BC-AD 100 and its legacy. 3. In the Gupta age (AD 300-550) and after. 4. Eminent monk-Scholars of India. 5. Monastic Universities, (AD 500-1200). Index. Though India is no longer a Buddhist country, Buddhism held its place among Indian faiths for nearly seventeen centuries (500 B.C.-A.D. 1200). During this long stretch of time the Buddhist monks were organized in Sanghas in most parts of the country and their activities and achievements have profoundly influenced India`s traditional culture. There are monumental remains of Buddhist monastic life scattered all over India: in the south there are about a thousand cave-monasteries, among them Ajanta, world-famous for its exquisite mural paintings; in the north, less spectacular, the ruins of monastic edifices from Taxila in the west to Paharpur in the east. A connected history of the Buddhist monks of ancient India, their activities, their monastic establishments and their contributions to Indian culture, is available for the first time in this work, which is remarkable also for its pervading human interest. In reconstructing the history of the emperors and kings who were patrons of Buddhism, the early missionaries and the illustrious monk-scholars of later times, the author has used sources in four languages-Pali, Sanskrit, Chinese and Tibetan.
