«Buddhism» by Donald S. Lopez

This is a particular book since it offers us a demystified and rigorous vision of the many Buddhist traditions existing throughout Asia and throughout the centuries. Here, we do not find the Buddhism that the West dreams of. On the contrary, in this work Buddhism speaks for itself, with its own stories and anecdotes, from its historical and legendary characters, from its canonical writings and its apocryphal texts, and in its multiple languages ​​and faces originating in India , Sri Lanka, Thailand, Tibet, China or Japan. Nor is this one more manual of Buddhism that, as if it were a manual of mechanics, exposes one after another the "essential" principles of Buddhism.
In Buddhism. Introduction to its history and its teachings, Donald S. Lopez adopts an overall and transversal vision of Buddhism, which presents us as a living reality, with nuances and in constant evolution, not as a set of abstract theories or a set of mystified practices . This book is aimed at those who wish to enter and deepen the knowledge of Buddhism.
