Without and Within

Más información sobre el libro

Every religion has its unique quality, Buddhism included. Each Buddhist country has different practices, and this may sometimes be confusing to foreign visitors. This book is intended to provide a concise clarification of Buddhist practices in Thailand and to help foreign visitors enjoy their visit. If it leads to better understanding among different religions and countries, that would be a blessing. Over the years, there have been several attempts to have books on Buddhism distributed to hotels in Thailand, but none is widely available at the moment. Buddhadasa Indapanno Archives Foundation (BIA), thus, began this project in 2012, to celebrate the 2,600 years of Buddha’s enlightenment, the celebration of the 100th birthday anniversary of His Holiness Somdet Phra Nyanasamvara the Supreme Patriarch of Thailand and the 84th birthday anniversary of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej. It is hoped that this book will continue to be distributed as long as it remains useful.
