Buddhist Sects and Sectarianism
This Title Is A Historical Analysis Of Origin And Development Of Buddhist Sects And Sectarianism In The History Of The Succession Of Schools, It Is Found That The First Schism In The Sangha Was Followed By A Series Of Schisms Leading To The Formation Of Different Sub-Sects, And In The Course Of Time Eleven Such Sub-Sects Arose Out Of The Theravada While Seven Issued From The Mahasasnghikas. All These Branches Of Buddhist Sects Appeared One After Another In Close Succession Which In Three Or Four Hundred Years After The Buddha'S Parinirvana. Here, We Focus On Following Important Aspects: Growth And Ramification Of Buddhist Sects And Sectarian Schools; Mahayana Buddhism, Theravada Buddhism, Tantric Buddhism, Yogacara, Newar Buddhism, Bhutanese Buddhist Sects, Protestant Buddhism, Nichren Buddhism, Amida Buddhism, Tendai Buddhism, Shingon Buddhism, Zen Buddhism, Millennial Buddhism, There Are Different Authorities, Such As The Traditions Of The Theravadins, Sammitiyas, Mahasanghikas, And Subsequently The Tibetan And Chinese Translations Which Give Us Accounts Of The Origin Of The Different Sects And Sectarianism.
Women in the Buddhist Legends
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.
