Soft cover. Zustand: New. A Manual of Buddhism in its Modern Development by R. Spence Hardy is a comprehensive exploration of the state and evolution of Buddhism during the 19th century. Drawing on his extensive experiences as a missionary in Sri Lanka, Hardy meticulously documents the teachings, practices, and institutions of B…uddhism as he observed them. The book delves into the core principles of Buddhist doctrine, including the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, and examines the various sects and schools within the religion. Hardy provides detailed descriptions of rituals, monastic life, and the role of Buddhism in the daily lives of its adherents. His work is notable for its ethnographic detail and its efforts to present Buddhism from the perspective of its practitioners. Despite being written from a Western viewpoint, the book remains a valuable historical resource for understanding how Buddhism adapted and persisted in the face of colonial influence and modern challenges. Hardy's scholarly approach and his dedication to presenting an accurate picture of Buddhism in his time make this work a significant contribution to Buddhist studies and religious scholarship.
