Description

'There are many women around the world who have contributed in their own ways to the wellbeing of others and have left legacies that many find inspirational.

Therefore, I welcome this book that includes biographies and works of some well-known women in the Buddhist world.

I commend the Buddhist Society Trust for bringing out this book and hope it will be of benefit to many people.'His Holiness the Dalai LamaA distinguished friend of the Freudian Nina Coltart once said 'I don't really know what enlightenment is or could possibly be.

The only thing I hope for and work slowly towards is a process of gradual disendarkment.'This collection from The Middle Way, Journal of the Buddhist Society established in 1924, may help in that process.

This anthology consists of writings of Buddhist women, authors, artists, explorers, therapists, mothers and wives whose lives are wonderfully interesting.

Many share a fascinating and curious connection with one another.

The Buddhist Society Trust is a distinguished Press which enriches lives around the world by advancing the study and practice of Buddhism.

It has published and co-published important Buddhist textbooks for universities and schools with a number of leading international academic presses.
