Abstract | An analytical,historical,and structural analysis of the principles of Buddhist monasticism,the thesis of this book is that mental discipline depends upon the quality of intention. Vinaya (or discipline) is what defines a Buddhist monk and consists of the basis for collective identity. This is clearly expressed within the vicissitudes of the sangha's cultic life. It is also the means by which spiritual progress toward the goal of nirvana is won. |
