How did a society on the edge of collapse and dominated by wandering bands of armed men give way to a vibrant Buddhist culture, led by yogins and scholars? Ronald M. Davidson explores how the translation and spread of esoteric Buddhist texts dramatically shaped Tibetan society and led to its rise as the center of Buddhist culture throughout Asia, replacing India as the perceived source of religious ideology and tradition. During the Tibetan Renaissance (950-1200 C.E.), monks and yogins translated an enormous number of Indian Buddhist texts. They employed the evolving literature and practices of esoteric Buddhism as the basis to reconstruct Tibetan religious, cultural, and political institutions. Many translators achieved the de facto status of feudal lords and while not always loyal to their Buddhist vows, these figures helped solidify political power in the hands of religious authorities and began a process that led to the Dalai Lama's theocracy. Davidson's vivid portraits of the monks, priests, popular preachers, yogins, and aristocratic clans who changed Tibetan society and culture further enhance his perspectives on the tensions and transformations that characterized medieval Tibet.

Buddhism is in many ways a visual tradition, with its well-known practices of visualization, its visual arts, its epistemological writings that discuss the act of seeing, and its literature filled with images and metaphors of light. Some Buddhist traditions are also visionary, advocating practices by which meditators seek visions that arise before their eyes. Naked Seeing investigates such practices in the context of two major esoteric traditions, the Wheel of Time (Kalacakra) and the Great Perfection (Dzogchen). Both of these experimented with sensory deprivation, and developed yogas involving long periods of dwelling in dark rooms or gazing at the open sky. These produced unusual experiences of seeing, which were used to pursue some of the classic Buddhist questions about appearances, emptiness, and the nature of reality. Along the way, these practices gave rise to provocative ideas and suggested that, rather than being apprehended through internal insight, religious truths might also be seen in the exterior world-realized through the gateway of the eyes. Christopher Hatchell presents the intellectual and literary histories of these practices, and also explores the meditative techniques and physiology that underlie their distinctive visionary experiences. The book also offers for the first time complete English translations of three major Tibetan texts on visionary practice: a Kalacakra treatise by Yumo Mikyo Dorjé, The Lamp Illuminating Emptiness, a Nyingma Great Perfection work called The Tantra of the Blazing Lamps, and a Bön Great Perfection work called Advice on the Six Lamps, along with a detailed commentary on this by Drugom Gyalwa Yungdrung.

This book publishes, for the first time in decades, and in many cases, for the first time in a readily accessible edition, English language philosophical literature written in India during the period of British rule. Bhushan's and Garfield's own essays on the work of this period contextualize the philosophical essays collected and connect them to broader intellectual, artistic and political movements in India. This volume yields a new understanding of cosmopolitan consciousness in a colonial context, of the intellectual agency of colonial academic communities, and of the roots of cross-cultural philosophy as it is practiced today. It transforms the canon of global philosophy, presenting for the first time a usable collection and a systematic study of Anglophone Indian philosophy. Many historians of Indian philosophy see a radical disjuncture between traditional Indian philosophy and contemporary Indian academic philosophy that has abandoned its roots amid globalization. This volume provides a corrective to this common view. The literature collected and studied in this volume is at the same time Indian and global, demonstrating that the colonial Indian philosophical communities were important participants in global dialogues, and revealing the roots of contemporary Indian philosophical thought. The scholars whose work is published here will be unfamiliar to many contemporary philosophers. But the reader will discover that their work is creative, exciting, and original, and introduces distinctive voices into global conversations. These were the teachers who trained the best Indian scholars of the post-Independence period. They engaged creatively both with the classical Indian tradition and with the philosophy of the West, forging a new Indian philosophical idiom to which contemporary Indian and global philosophy are indebted.

THE BUDDHIST ESSENE GOSPEL OF JESUS Volume II The New Age Essene and Maha Bodhi Renaissance A THREE VOLUME EXEGESIS WITH SYRIAC ARAMAIC TRANSLATIONS UNFOLDING THE GOSPEL S MYSTERIES AND UNCOVERING THEIR TRUTH by Dr. Johnny Lovewisdom Special Appendix: Diet of the Essene Jesus and The Healing Transition Diet (amplified and revised edition) Now for the first time in the west, we have a facsimile reproduction of the Principal Mysteries just as they were thought out and recorded in the original wording. In this Second Volume of The Buddhist Essene Gospel of Jesus, Dr. Lovewisdom focuses on the importance Buddhism had in the creation of Primitive Chrisitianity. Quote from Volume II: India's claim as the teacher of the world is due to Buddha. Buddha was born in India and gained enlightenment on India soil. We in the west owe so much to Buddha according to Prof. D.C. Ahir. Universities as great centers of learning first came into existence during the golden age of Buddhism in India from the time of the Buddha (6th century b.c.) to the 7th century a.d., about 1200 years. Our concept of libraries was first developed in these prestigious Buddhist Universities. Democracy can be traced back to Buddhism and how the Sanghas or communities were governed by voting. Buddhist art at Ajanta inspired all of Asia. Indian scholars have pointed out that Patanjali s yoga sutras are really a Hindu version of Buddhist yoga and the Bhagavad Gita is claimed a post-Buddha scripture. Shankara s Vedanta system has been shown to be largely borrowed from Buddhism according to Dr. Das Gupta. The Buddha influenced India to become largely vegetarian after being a heavy beef-eating country. Your editor's conclusion is that given the same vicarious atonement animal sacrifices, slavery among men and intellectual authoritarian servitude to Brahmanism at the time of the Buddha, -the teachings of Jesus Christ would have converted the world to peace instead of war. BLOOD OF THE GRAPE SALVATION VERSUS SHEDDING HUMAN BLOOD To understand John, we must apply Gospel definitions, and in the beginning with him refers to what in Greek was translated as the Genesis, the first book of the Bible. So he proceeds to tell us of the Word or Wisdom of Life Everlasting, for God is Light, our true Enlightenment. Now in the 7th verse reveals: "If we live in the Light, as he is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sins." This affirmation of John proves that the common dogmatic assertion that Jesus shed his blood on the cross in payment for our sins is false theology, hiding the Essene teachings. The blood of lambs, oxen, doves and other animals, and not even the bloodshed of humans can give us life, nor Life Everlasting. Rather, as we have already explained, the blood of the Son of God is grape blood, and Genesis teaches that the Prophesied Savior will wash his bodily raiment or robe in the blood of the grape. SAINT FRANCIS VERSUS SAINT PAUL People who live many years without dead animal products become very sensitive to any violation of this purity just as St. Francis confesses in a sermon after a severe illness: "Dearly beloved! I have to confess to God and you that I have eaten cakes made with lard." "St. Francis' gift of sympathy seems to have been wider than St. Paul's, for we find no evidence in the great Apostle of a love for nature or for animals. Francis' love of creatures was not simply the offspring of a soft sentimental disposition. It arose from that deep and abiding sense of the presence of God. To him all are from one Father and all are real kin. Francis placed the chief hope of his redemption and the redress of a suffering humanity in the literal imitation of his Divine Master."

Cet ouvrage se propose, ... l'aide de textes du bouddhisme qui s'echelonnent de ses origines jusqu'aux premiers siecles de notre ere, d'illustrer les trois dogmes qui sont partie integrante de la pensee indienne en general, et du bouddhisme en particulier: l'acte retributif (karman), les renaissances (jati) et la ronde universelle et eternelle de celles-ci (sansara ou transmigration).La premiere partie s'interesse au bouddhisme doctrinal. Sans taire les difficultes, voire les contradictions que ces dogmes offrent pour les esprits occidentaux, notamment parce que le Buddha soutient simultanement la sanction morale des actes et l'inexistence d'une yme substantielle et personnelle, on veut montrer l'omnipresence et la continuite des ces croyances dans les enseignements du fondateur lui-meme, dans les oeuvres qui debattent ... leur propos, ainsi l'Objet des discussions (Kathavatthu) ou les Questions du roi Menandre (Milindapanha) puis dans des sources plus tardives comme Buddhaghosa ou l'un ou l'autre penseur du Grand Vehicule. Au stock des questions fondamentales qui reste la meme d'yge en yge et qui concerne par exemple le passage de la mort ... la renaissance, qu'elle soit humaine, celeste ou infernale, on a ajoute quelques breves considerations sur la causalite karmique, sur karman et instinct ou sur l'equivalence samsara-nirvana.La deuxieme partie porte sur les dogmes precites tels qu'ils sont vus par le bouddhisme populaire. On aborde des lors une litterature d'un type tres different: un enorme repertoire de recits et de contes moraux enrichi au long des siecles et o- se detachent les Jataka's, c'est-...-dire ces [recits par le Buddha lui-meme de ses] naissances anterieures. On peut y suivre les odyssees transmigratoires de personnages tantot fameux (le Buddha lui-meme, ses disciples, ses contemporains, ses adversaires ideologiques), tantot anonymes, ... qui leurs actes moraux ou immoraux, pieux (envers le Buddha et ses moines) ou impies ont valu de renaOEtre heureux ou malheureux ici-bas, dans les cieux ou les enfers, comme animaux ou fantomes. Cet ensemble narratif destine ... instruire et edifier moines et laics bouddhistes permet aussi des remarques diverses, par exemple sur l'anamnese des vies anterieures ou sur la duree des diverses renaissances et sejours dans les spheres cosmiques.

Will Tuladhar-Douglas sheds new light on an important branch of Mahayana Buddhism and establishes the existence, character and causes of a renaissance of Buddhism in the fifteenth century in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal. He provides the basis for the historical study of Newar Buddhism as one distinct tradition among the many that comprise Indic Buddhism. Through a thorough study of the relevant texts in the classical Himalayan languages (Sanskrit, Newari, Tibetan and Nepali), the book puts forward a new thesis about how the Newars legitimated and reinvented their tradition by devising new concepts of canonicity, as such it will appeal to scholars of the history and philology of Buddhism.
