Buddhism and the Senses
English, Donald S. Lopez Jr., Robert DeCaroli, 2024Free shipping starting at 50.–
The book "Buddhism and the Senses" offers an in-depth analysis of the relationship between Buddhism and the five senses: seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, and feeling. It brings together the perspectives of ten esteemed scholars who examine the dual nature of sensory experiences in Buddhism. While many Buddhist texts view sensory experiences as a source of attachment and suffering, this work also highlights the positive dimension of the senses. The authors demonstrate how sensory experiences can lead not only to pleasure but also to knowledge and the ability to convey the teachings of the Dharma. By considering the senses in both their positive and negative manifestations, a new discourse is opened that reflects the complexity of sensory experiences within the context of Buddhist traditions. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of sensory experience and Buddhist practice and offers a fresh perspective on the landscape of Buddhist studies.
