Description
""Festivals and Holidays of Lamaism"" is a comprehensive guide to the religious and cultural celebrations of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition known as Lamaism. Written by L. Austine Waddell, a noted scholar and explorer of Tibetan culture, the book delves into the origins, meanings, and practices of the various festivals and holidays that are observed by Lamaist communities around the world. From the grand ceremonies of the New Year and the Harvest Festival to the more intimate rituals of individual households and monasteries, Waddell provides a detailed and fascinating account of the rich tapestry of Lamaist traditions. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of Tibetan language and culture, as well as his firsthand experiences living among Lamaist communities, Waddell illuminates the deep spiritual significance of these festivals and holidays, as well as their social and historical contexts. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in Tibetan Buddhism, anthropology, or comparative religion.THIS 20 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Buddhism of Tibet Or Lamaism, by L.
