Description Contents
 
This book brings together six essays on the origin and history of the bodhisattva ideal and the emergence of the Mahayana. The essays approach the subject from different perspectives from scholarly examinations of the terms in the Nikayas and Agamas to the relationship of the bodhisattva ideal and the arahant ideal within the broader context of the social environment in which Mahayana formed and further developments that lead to the formulation of the fully fledged bodhisattva path. As such, the collection provides a good overview for a wider Buddhist readership of the history of changes that eventually led to the emergence of the Mahayana.
