Arnoldsche Devotion: Image, Recitation, and Celebration of
Book SynopsisThe Vessantara Jataka is the tale of Buddha's last life, before he was reborn as the historical Buddha 2,500 years ago. In this earlier existence as Prince Vessantara he demonstrated evidence of the highest virtue that constitutes an enlightened man: generosity. Vessantara gave away everything dear to him - in the climactic scene of the story, even his wife and children. In North-East Thailand the Vessantara tale is celebrated annually as Bun Phra Wet. Pha Phra Wet - 'Vessantara cloths' - form the visual framework for this festival; they are hand-painted scrolls, which can reach lengths of up to one hundred metres. Devotion presents, for the very first time, a selection of six full-length Vessantara scrolls and explores a contemporary multimedia celebration of an ancient Buddhist text.

Silkworm Books / Trasvin Publications LP Buddhist Cosmology: The Study of a Burmese
Book SynopsisIn this book, a Burmese manuscript from the mid-nineteenth century is the catalyst for a study of the multifaceted Buddhist cosmos. The manuscript not only lays out the complex array of realms in the Buddhist universe but also ventures into a number of esoteric and little-understood aspects of the Theravāda cosmological system and its inhabitants. By presenting translations and narration of much of the manuscript’s text and sharing his careful analysis of its vivid illustrations, the author uncovers fascinating details of the Theravāda Buddhist cosmos. Detailed color and black-and-white illustrations, including a complete reduced-scale reproduction of the manuscript, help clarify and explain the complex, segmented Buddhist cosmology.

Peeters Publishers Buddhist Nonduality, Paschal Paradox: A Christian
Book SynopsisThe Teaching of Vimalakirti, treasured in China and Japan and best known in the West in Canon Étienne Lamotte's classic translation from the Tibetan and Chinese, has now surfaced in its original language, Sanskrit, after two thousand years. Centered on a lay bodhisattva, a master of paradox, who has no equal in debate except the Buddha and Manjusri, the embodiment of wisdom, Vimalakirti is the most humorous and engaging of the major Buddhist scriptures, comparable to the Book of Job in its dramatic format. In the first commentary on the recovered text, an Irish theologian reads Vimalakirti and the Gospels in light of each other, and finds resonances between the Buddhist wisdom of nonduality and the Christian dynamic of incarnation and paschal transformation.

Peeters Publishers Les mythes du déluge de l'Inde ancienne: Histoire
Book SynopsisEn Europe, durant les périodes moderne et contemporaine, les mythes du déluge de l'Inde ancienne ont joué un rôle non négligeable dans les constructions savantes de l'histoire sacrée chrétienne et des histoires universelles. Confrontés au récit diluvien de la Genèse, bien avant le déchiffrement de la XIe tablette de l'épopée de Gilgamesh par G. Smith en 1872, ils ont alimenté nombre de controverses sur l'origine de l'Homme et ont contribué, aux côtés de la géologie et de la paléontologie naissantes, à sortir progressivement l'Europe d'une représentation biblique de l'histoire de l'humanité. La présente étude se propose de revenir sur la chronologie des multiples réceptions de ces récits traditionnels brahmaniques - Satapatha Brahmana, Mahabharata, Purana - chez les érudits occidentaux, depuis la fin de la période médiévale jusqu'à nos jours. Un parcours qui rappelle que missionnaires chrétiens des XVIe et XVIIe siècles, administrateurs coloniaux et orientalistes du XVIIIe siècle, indianistes des XIXe et XXe siècles ont tous participé, par leur comparatisme analogique ou différentiel, fondé ou infondé, à la construction de représentations orientées de l'histoire de l'humanité et de ses origines ainsi qu'au développement de la mythologie comparée et, plus largement, de l'histoire comparée des religions.
