Beschreibung

"The book explores a diversity of sources to explore how solitary or forest-based practices are celebrated in some parts of the Pali 'imaginaire'. It provides a detailed and sustained analysis of a Buddhist understanding of solitude from one of its early textual traditions, and illuminates the paradox between two apparently 'competing' lifestyles of community and seclusion and discuss their relation and interplay"--
