Find tips, reviews, and features on The Power of Denial Buddhism sold for 31.24 $ , available in the Books & Magazines category; this product belongs to and is sold by Abebooks.com.
Innumerable studies have appeared in recent decades about practically every aspect of womens lives in Western societies The few such works on Buddhism have been quite limited in scope In The Power of Denial Bernard Faure takes an important step toward redressing this situation by boldly asking does Buddhism offer women liberation or limitation Continuing the innovative exploration of sexuality in Buddhism he began in The Red Thread here he moves from his earlier focus on male monastic sexuality to Buddhist conceptions of women and constructions of gender Faure argues that Buddhism is neither as sexist nor as egalitarian as is usually thought Above all he asserts the study of Buddhism through the gender lens leads us to question what we uncritically call Buddhism in the singular Faure challenges the conventional view that the history of women in Buddhism is a linear narrative of progress from oppression to liberation Examining Buddhist discourse on gender in traditions such as that of Japan he shows that patriarchyindeed misogynyhas long been central to Buddhism But women were not always silent passive victims Faure points to the central role not only of nuns and mothers and wives of monks but of female mediums and courtesans whose colorful relations with Buddhist monks he considers in particular Ultimately Faure concludes that while Buddhism is in practice relentlessly misogynist as far as misogynist discourses go it is one of the most flexible and open to contradiction And he suggests unyielding indepth examination can help revitalize Buddhisms deeper more ancient egalitarianism and thus subvert its existing gender hierarchy This groundbreaking book offers a fresh comprehensive understanding of what Buddhism has to say about gender and of what this really says about Buddhism singular or plural

From the first century when Buddhism entered China the foreign religion shaped Chinese philosophy beliefs and ritual At the same time Buddhism had a profound effect on the material world of the Chinese This wideranging study shows that Buddhism brought with it a vast array of objects big and smallrelics treasured as parts of the body of the Buddha prayer beads and monastic clothingas well as new ideas about what objects could do and how they should be treated Kieschnick argues that even some everyday objects not ordinarily associated with Buddhismbridges tea and the chairon closer inspection turn out to have been intimately tied to Buddhist ideas and practices Long after Buddhism ceased to be a major force in India it continued to influence the development of material culture in China as it does to the present day At first glance this seems surprising Many Buddhist scriptures and thinkers rejected the material world or even denied its existence with great enthusiasm and sophistication Others however from Buddhist philosophers to ordinary devotees embraced objects as a means of expressing religious sentiments and doctrines What was a sad sign of compromise and decline for some was seen as strength and versatility by others Yielding rich insights through its innovative analysis of particular types of objects this briskly written book is the first to systematically examine the ambivalent relationship in the Chinese context between Buddhism and material culture
