More about the book
Exploring Buddhism's complex relationship with sexuality, this study examines the paradoxes within its teachings from the time of its founder, Xvkyamuni, through to the premodern era. Bernard Faure employs an anthropological lens to highlight the discrepancies between the religion's normative doctrines and the actual practices of its followers, providing a comprehensive overview of this often overlooked aspect of Buddhist discourse.
