The Book Of Buddhas Book Review
About the Book: Modern students who are drawn to the study and practice of Buddhism are not always able to easily learn the symbolic meaning of the various types of statuary connected to the study of this philosophy. In Buddhism, every symbol has a meaning and this book explores the symbolism of the ritual objects that are used on statues and paintings, as well as explaining the ritual meaning of the objects associated with Buddhism.
Our Take: Buddhism is as much a philosophy as it is a religion. As with most philosophy there is a lot of confusion about what is what. You may want to find some easy and clear details and this new book is a great way to do that. Its not a guide to the philosophy, but rather to the different buddhas throughout time. You can educate yourself about the imagery, symbols and characters associated with this ancient system of wisdom. This book really is great, I found it highly useful and a nice little guide to have around.
