Abstract:
Among the works of the Japanese Buddhist teacher Kūkai (774–835), not only treatises deserve attention, but also small works written on the occasion of vari­ous rites. In them, the basic provisions of Tantrism (mikkyō) are applied to ex­plain the meaning of the ritual and its significance for the community. The article considers one of such works: Ganmon at the offering-pūjā of ten thousand lamps on Mount Takano (Takano no yama mantōe no ganmon, 832). At the beginning, Kukai speaks here about the universal law of causality, arguing that both suffer­ing and liberation have a cause, after which

Abstract:
The 20th century brought different periods in the history of Mongolia including theocracy, socialism and democracy. This article describes what renouncing the world (especially the home and the family), taking ordination, and taking monastic vows meant at the turn of the 20th century and a century later. Extracts from interviews reveal the life of pre-novices, illustrating their family backgrounds, connections with family members after ordination, and support from and towards the family. The master-disciple relationship which was of great significance in Vajrayāna tradition, is also described.

Abstract:
Abstract Initiation (abhiṣeka) in Indian Buddhism had a long trajectory, beginning as lustration offerings to the bodhi tree and concluding with the sexual practices of tantric Buddhism. Between these two, abhiṣeka rites were developed that first reflected one of the primary values—purification, especially purification for those associated with the maṇḍala worship practices of fifth-century Indian Buddhism. By the seventh century, the purificatory practices were modified and patterned after the coronation rituals association with Indian kingship, now employed as a gateway ritual in which the c

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the role of vows in Buddhist ethics. Vows generate new moral perspectives, as well as new agent-relative moral considerations. Among the vows addressed are the lay vows, monastic vows, bodhisattva vows, and tantric vows. The chapter discusses the diverse Buddhist interpretations of the metaphysical status of vows, and the ways that they transform one’s moral landscape, changing the ethical status of actions. Also addressed here are the binding power of vows, including the roles of both initial intention and admitted exceptions, and the effects of transgressions, includin
