Description About the author
 
This study is the first comprehensive examination of the figure of the Buddhist saint in a wide range of Indian Buddhist evidence. Drawing on an extensive variety of sources, author Reginald Ray identifies the prototypical Buddhist saint as a "renunciant of the forest." This classical type, he argues, informs the major Buddhist saintly types and subtypes, including the buddha, pratyekabuddha, arhant, and bodhisattva.
