Available in: Ebook

Buddhism as a Religion provides an insightful exploration of Buddhism, not just as a philosophy or way of life, but as a structured religion with its own beliefs, rituals, and spiritual practices. While Buddhism is often perceived as a path of personal enlightenment and mindfulness, this book highlights the institutional, devotional, and communal aspects that define it as a world religion.

The text delves into the historical development of Buddhism, its core teachings—including the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path—and how different Buddhist traditions incorporate religious elements such as temples, prayers, monastic orders, and sacred scriptures. It also examines the role of faith, devotion, and ceremony in various Buddhist schools, from Theravāda and Mahāyāna to Vajrayāna.

By bridging the gap between Buddhism as a philosophy and Buddhism as a religious tradition, Buddhism as a Religion offers readers a comprehensive perspective on how Buddhist communities practice their faith across different cultures. This book is an essential resource for those seeking to understand Buddhism beyond meditation and mindfulness, uncovering its depth as a spiritual tradition that has shaped civilizations for over two millennia.
