"In seeking to explore the interrelationships between, and mutual influence of, varieties of sexual stereotypes and religious views of the Mahayana Buddhist tradition, Women in Buddhism succeeds in drawing our attention to matters of philosophical importance. Paul examines the 'image' of women which arise in a number of Buddhist texts associated with Mahayana and finds that, while ideally the tradition purports to be egalitarian, in actual practice it often betrayed a strong misogynist prejudice. Sanskrit and Chinese texts are organized by theme and type, progressing from those which treat the traditionally orthodox and negative to those which set forth a positive consideration of soteriological paths for women. . . . In Women in Buddhism, Diana Paul may be forcing our consideration of the problem of female enlightenment. Thus the main purport and accomplishment of her scholarship is revolutionary."—Philosophy East and West

A stunning modern translation of a Buddhist classic that is also one of the oldest literary texts in the world written by women. The Therīgāthā is one of the oldest surviving literatures by women, composed more than two millennia ago and originally collected as part of the Pali canon of Buddhist scripture. These poems were written by some of the first Buddhist women—therīs—honored for their religious achievements. Through imaginative verses about truth and freedom, the women recount their lives before ordination and their joy at attaining liberation from samsara. Poems of the First Buddhist Women offers startling insights into the experiences of women in ancient times that continue to resonate with modern readers. With a spare and elegant style, this powerful translation introduces us to a classic of world literature.

This Title Is A Vast Collection And Compiliation Of 97 Important Legends Relating To Nature And Character Of Women In Buddhist Canonical And Non-Canonical Literature Which Produced A Marvellous Impact On Ethical Values Of Women Of All Classes, Who Were Moved By The Attractive Spiritual Power Of The Buddha'S Dhamma And Renounced The World To Lead A Pious Life In The Expectation Of A Happy Rebirth Or In Order To Amiability Of Rebirth Altogether. There Were A Number Of Courtesans Who Led Saintly Lives After Listening To Buddha. Ladies Of The Sakya Family Were Naturally The Earliest Women To Come Under The Influence Of The New Creed. The Women Appear To Have Enjoyed A Greater Amount Of Independence And Free Thinking Among The Sakyas Than Among The Peoples Of The Plains Perhaps Owing To The Same Scarcity Of Women That Forced Them To Enact A Law Prohibiting Multiple Marriages. The Therigatha And Its Commentary Tell Us In What Light The Monastic Life Presented Itself To Women In The Days Of Gautama Buddha.
