Description
Buddhism began in India before migrating to other parts of Asia. Buddhists in the southern countries, such as Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Myanmar, carry on a practice known as the Theravada. The form of Buddhism that moved north and east, into China, Korea, and Japan, among others, is called the Mahayana. In a breathtaking display, Venerable Master Hsing Yun harmonizes the traditions of these two major branches of Buddhism, demonstrating that seemingly disparate ideals are in fact pointing us toward the same objectives. This book will be appreciated by Buddhists of all traditions, as well as by non-Buddhists, as a masterful synthesis of some of Buddhism's main teachings. - from Amzon
