Silkworm Books / Trasvin Publications LP Gender and the Path to Awakening: Hidden
Book SynopsisIn Gender and the Path to Awakening, Martin Seeger lays out the nuances and varying conceptions of female renunciation in modern Thai Buddhism. Centered on long-term textual and ethnographic research on six remarkable female practitioners, Seeger considers trends and changes over the last 140 years in the practices of female renunciants and their devotees. He also investigates understandings of female sainthood in Thai Buddhism, its expressions in material culture, and the importance of orality and memory in Thai Buddhist epistemology. Supported by interviews and careful study of sermons, hagiographies, and hitherto untranslated and rare Thai sources, this book examines the social backgrounds, modes of expression, veneration, and historical contexts of Thai women pursuing the Buddhist ideal. Rich in ethnographic detail and with additional grounding in foundational Indian Buddhist texts, this book offers new insights into the complexities of female renunciation and gender relations in modern Thai Buddhism. Highlights Offers a fresh and comprehensive understanding of female practitioners and gender relations in modern Thai Buddhism. Based on meticulous long-term ethnographic and textual research. Considers the role of orality and memory in the epistemological framework of Buddhist education, particularly for female practitioners. Illustrated by a number of photos—sometimes rare—of key figures and the material culture associated with them. Makes extensive use of early Buddhist texts to present or juxtapose modern developments with events and people in early Buddhism
