When this book was first published in 1971, under the title Buddhist Precept and Practice, The Times Literary Supplement Wrote: This is an epoch-making piece of research which must mark a change in direction and appreciation if it is taken seriously and studied in details. Dr. Gombrich is concerned with religious change in belief and practice, not only in modern times but over the two and a half millennia during which Buddhism has flourished. He concludes that Sinhalese Buddhism has been remarkably conservative and rejects the assumption that it degenerated from an original high standard, by questioning whether it ever was as pure as a superficial reading of classical texts might suggest. It would be very difficult to provide a combination of scholarship and sympathy such as that which pervades Dr. Gombrich s book and makes it a landmark in the study of religion. Out of print for many years, the book is now republished corrected but substantially unchanged. Richard Gombrich has been Boden Professor of Sanskrit, Oxford University and Professor Fellow of Balliol College since 1976. He has published 8 books and about 40 articles, mostly on Buddhism. His most recent books are Theravada Buddhism: A social History from Ancient Benares to Modern Colombo and Buddhism Transformed: Religious Change in Sri Lanka; the latter is intended to do for modern Sinhalese Buddhism in the cities what Precept and Practice did for its traditional manifestation in the countryside.

Tantra, or Vajrayana, Buddhism is a set of esoteric practices that involve mantra recitation and complex visualizations. Tantra constitutes the fabric of a Tibetan Buddhist's daily practice, but no practice of tantra can be successful without adherence to the tantric precepts, the highest of three complementary sets of vows. Tsongkhapa is perhaps the greatest philosopher ever produced by Tibet's Buddhist culture, and this book is a translation of his explanation of the tantric precepts.

The Radiance of Precepts: A Comprehensive Guide to Buddhist Ethics-From the Five Precepts to the Bodhisattva Vows, Illuminating the Path to Liberation and Compassion is an authoritative and inspiring manual for understanding and practicing Buddhist ethics. Designed for lay practitioners and those aspiring to deepen their knowledge of the Dharma, this book weaves together the historical origins, spiritual significance, and modern applications of Buddhist precepts to help readers purify their minds, accumulate merit, and embody wisdom and compassion in daily life. This guide delves into essential Buddhist principles, including the Five Precepts, the Ten Virtues, the Eight Precepts, and the Bodhisattva Vows. By integrating teachings from classical scriptures with historical accounts, it provides both theoretical insights and practical methods for cultivating a virtuous life. It recounts inspirational stories of Buddhist masters like Master Jianzhen (Ganjin), who persevered through six arduous attempts to bring the precepts to Japan, and Upāli, whose unwavering commitment to the Vinaya made him one of the Buddha's foremost disciples. In addition to its rich narratives, this book offers practical tools, such as instructions for confession rituals, step-by-step guidance on self-administering the Eight Precepts, and advice on observing the Six Fasting Days. These practices are tailored to help modern practitioners integrate the Dharma into their busy lives while advancing on the path of ethical purity and spiritual awakening. For those new to Buddhism, this book provides an accessible introduction to its ethical foundations, while seasoned practitioners will find profound insights into the transformative power of the precepts. Through its teachings, readers will discover that Buddhist precepts are not merely rules to follow but are luminous pathways to a life of harmony, self-realization, and service to others. The Radiance of Precepts is more than a book; it is a companion for all who seek to walk the Buddhist path with sincerity, humility, and a heart dedicated to the liberation of all beings.
