Book Synopsis Theravada Traditions by : John Clifford Holt
Download or read book Theravada Traditions written by John Clifford Holt and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2017-03-31 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theravada Traditions offers a unique comparative approach to understanding Buddhism: it examines popular rituals of central importance in the predominantly Theravada Buddhist cultures of Laos, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Myanmar, and Cambodia. Instead of focusing on how religious ideas have impacted the ideals of government or ethical practice, author John Holt tries to ascertain how important changes, or shifts, in the trajectories of the political economies of societies have impacted the character of religious cultures. Each of the five chapters focuses on a particular rite and provides detailed historical, political, or social context: Holt shows how worship of the Phra Bang Buddha image in the annual pi mai or New Year’s rites in Luang Phrabang, Laos, has changed dramatically since the 1975 communist revolution and the subsequent opening up of the country to tourism; he describes how, in the face of insurrections and a prolonged civil war, the annual asala perahara processions in Kandy, Sri Lanka, have come to reflect a robust assertion of a Sinhala Buddhist nationalist identity; how ordination rites among Thai Buddhists reflect the manner in which Thai culture has been ever more “commodified” in the context of its dramatically developing economy; and how in tightly controlled Myanmar the kathina rite, the act of giving new robes to members of the sangha after the completion of the rain-retreat season, transformed into a season of campaigning for gift-giving and merit-making; finally, he demonstrates how, in light of the devastating losses inflicted by the Khmer Rouge, pchum ben, the annual rite of caring ritually for one’s deceased kin, became the most popular and perhaps most emotionally observed of all rites in the Khmer calendar year. In short, Theravada Traditions illustrates how popular, public ritual performance, far from being static, clearly indexes patterns of social and political change. Broad but deep, rigorous yet accessible, this rich, innovative volume provides a provocative introduction to the practice of Theravada Buddhism and the nature of social change in contemporary Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia.

Download or read book Dharma written by Alf Hiltebeitel and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-07-28 with total page 766 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 300 BCE and 200 CE, concepts and practices of dharma attained literary prominence throughout India. Both Buddhist and Brahmanical authors sought to clarify and classify their central concerns, and dharma proved a means of thinking through and articulating those concerns. Alf Hiltebeitel shows the different ways in which dharma was interpreted during that formative period: from the grand cosmic chronometries of kalpas and yugas to narratives about divine plans, gendered nuances of genealogical time, royal biography (even autobiography, in the case of the emperor Asoka), and guidelines for daily life, including meditation. He reveals the vital role dharma has played across political, religious, legal, literary, ethical, and philosophical domains and discourses about what holds life together. Through dharma, these traditions have articulated their distinct visions of the good and well-rewarded life. This insightful study explores the diverse and changing significance of dharma in classical India in nine major dharma texts, as well some shorter ones. Dharma proves to be a term by which to make a fresh cut through these texts, and to reconsider their own chronology, their import, and their relation to each other.

Excerpt: ...lie," unless, indeed, it was from a real belief that he had such powers i.e. being self-deceived, he assuredly is guilty of a deadly sin, and is expelled from the priesthood. Venerable sirs, the four deadly sins have been recited. Any priest who has fallen into such and such of these receives not communion with holy priests, he is guilty of a deadly sin, is expelled from the priesthood, and is thereafter as he was before he received ordination. I inquire of you, Venerable sirs, concerning them--are you pure in this matter? A-second time I inquire, are you pure in this matter? A third time I inquire, are you pure in this matter? Venerable sirs, you are pure herein; thus hy your silence I understand that it is so. The chapter on the Deadly Sins is finished. i Venerable sirs, the introduction has been recited; the four deadly sins have been recited. Now there remain to be heard by the Venerable assembly the thirteen Sanghadisesa faults, the two undetermined offences, the thirty Nissaggiya faults, the ninety-two Pacittiya faults, the four Patidesaniya faults, the rules of conduct, the seven rules for settling questions. So much of the sayings of Buddha as is included in this office comes into reading twice a month. These precepts must be obeyed by all priests, in unity, with gladness, without dispute. IV.--Sanghadisesa, Or Faults Involving Temporary Separation From The Priesthood. Here, Venerable sirs, the thirteen Sanghadisesa, or faults involving temporary separation from the priesthood, come into reading. 1. The emission of semen, of design, and not in a dream, is a sarighadisesa offence. 2. If any priest, allowing his thoughts to be perverted, should touch a woman by taking hold of her hand, or her hair, or any other part of her body, it...
