About this product

A fascinating, short book that challenges us to strip away existing preconceptions we may have about Buddhism Considers questions such as: Can we talk of Buddhism as a unified religion or are there many Buddhisms? Is Buddhism a religion of tolerance and pacifism as many people think? And is Buddhism a religion without god(s), or is it more of a philosophy than a religion? Traces the basic history, beliefs and nature of Buddhism in easy-to-understand language Written by renowned Buddhist scholar, Bernard Faure, it is an ideal introduction for anyone who has unanswered questions about one of the world's largest and most popular religions

Reviews
"An ideal introduction to the tradition that debunks many of the Orientialist stereotypes by relentlessly highlighting the complexity and diversity of Buddhism in its localized and ritualized forms. It serves as an excellent way for readers to understand the work of one of the leading and groundbreaking scholars of Buddhist studies of this generation." ? Steven Heine, Florida International University "Many people know something about Buddhism, but, for interesting historical reasons, much of what they know is wrong. In Unmasking Buddhism , Bernard Faure offers a clear catalogue of these misconceptions and then compassionately dispels the darkness of ignorance." ? Donald S. Lopez, University of Michigan

I've bought from them a few times, and every time the records arrive just as described and well packed for shipping. Their prices for the EU releases I want have been far better than any other sellers. So I will continue to buy vinyl from them, knowing that they maintain a high level of customer support & communication.

Album better than described. Perfect shape, sealed, with promo sticker on seal. Great communication. Very appreciative to own this! Ordered on Saturday and shipped out the following Tuesday that seller said was seven days so I guess this is a big time seller that only counts business days. Just something to note. But this digipak, rereleased and remastered, expanded album is in collector’s condition.
