Thousand Lives Away: Buddhism in Contemporary Burma, A

By: King, Winston L.

The portrait presented here is essentially that of Burmese Buddhism â€œon the hoofâ€, as it is practiced by the rank and file of lay Buddhists, mirroring the world as perceived through traditionalist Buddhist eyes. For the most part it is a strange world to Western perceptionsâ€”one almost from another planet, one â€œa thousand lives awayâ€ from it, one of karma, endless rebirths, nats and pagodas.
