Buddhism: History, Philosophy, Doctrine, and Practice
29.99 €
In sixteen lectures of this comprehensive religious studies course, Sergei Shcherbak provides a comprehensive description of the history, philosophy, doctrine, and psychopractices of Buddhism in an accessible and precise manner. This course begins with a brief excursion into the spiritual culture of Ancient India, citing examples from sacred texts and stories about the Ajivikas and Jains—the main "competitors" of early Buddhism—and extends to the later schools and Vajrayana teachings. The author seeks to reconstruct the historical core of the mythologized stories about the founder of Buddhism, Prince Gautama Shakyamuni, and consistently and thoroughly presents the main tenets of his teachings, drawing on key texts of the Buddhist canon. Special lectures are devoted to such interesting topics as Buddhist cosmology and the educational system.
