Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have come to admire Buddhism for being profound but accessible, as much a lifestyle as a religion. The credit for creating Buddhism goes to the Buddha, a figure widely respected across the Western world for his philosophical insight, his teachings of nonviolence, and his practice of meditation. But who was this Buddha, and how did he become the Buddha we know and love today? Leading historian of Buddhism Donald S. Lopez Jr. tells the story of how various idols carved in stone—variously named Beddou, Codam, Xaca, and Fo—became the man of flesh and blood that we know simply as the Buddha. He reveals that the positive view of the Buddha in Europe and America is rather recent, originating a little more than a hundred and fifty years ago. For centuries, the Buddha was condemned by Western writers as the most dangerous idol of the Orient. He was a demon, the murderer of his mother, a purveyor of idolatry. 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.

Book excerpt: Unveiling Sri Lanka's Colonial Past: A 10 Chapter Exploration of Portuguese and Dutch Rule This comprehensive blog series delves into the fascinating yet complex history of Sri Lanka's encounters with European colonial powers. Spanning ten chapters, we embark on a journey exploring the arrival of the Portuguese in the early 16th century, their impact on trade, religion, and culture, and their eventual decline. We witness the rise of the Kandyan Kingdom, a beacon of resistance against European dominance, and their strategic alliances to combat Portuguese control.

Unveiling Layers of Conflict and Coexistence: Witness the battles and shifting alliances that unfolded between the Portuguese, the Dutch, and the Kandyan Kingdom. Explore the religious tensions that arose with the introduction of Catholicism and its influence on Sri Lankan society. Learn about the cultural exchange that took place, with the introduction of new architectural styles, languages, and customs. Discover the economic exploitation inherent in the colonial system, focusing on the highly prized spice trade. A Look Beyond Conquest: The Enduring Legacy This series goes beyond just military campaigns and explores the long-lasting impact of European colonialism on Sri Lanka. We examine the evolution of Sri Lanka's religious landscape, the influence of European architecture and language, and the enduring spirit of resistance that shaped the nation's identity. So, join us on this captivating exploration of Sri Lanka's colonial past. Uncover the stories of power struggles, cultural encounters, and the unwavering fight for independence that continue to resonate in Sri Lanka's present day.
