The vast majority of books on Buddhism describe the Buddha using the word enlightened, rather than awakened. This bias has resulted in Buddhism becoming generally perceived as the eponymous religion of enlightenment. Beyond Enlightenment is a sophisticated study of some of the underlying assumptions involved in the study of Buddhism (especially, but not exclusively, in the West). It investigates the tendency of most scholars to ground their study of Buddhism in these particular assumptions about the Buddha's enlightenment and a particular understanding of religion, wh

La Sierra Norte de Puebla, numerosas veces recorrida por Guy Stresser-Péan, es una regìón particularmente interesante debido a su carácter pluriétnico, que se expresa en la convivencia de tres lenguas: totonaca, otomí y náhuatl. Es un lugar privilegiado para la observación del sincretismo ocurrido bajo la influencia de la doctrina cristiana, que se refleja en las ceremonias, las danzas y las ideas indígenas relacionadas con Dios, con el alma y con los seres espirituales, pero también en la concepción del espacio, el tiempo, la vida y la muerte. Las creencias relativas a la Luna, y en mayor medida al Sol, Ilaman la atención de manera particular, ya que este astro se asimila a Jesucristo, tanto por parte de los indios de la sierra como por los de la Huasteca. Quetzalcóati 9 Viento, el héroe cultural de una parte de la sierra, el espíritu del dios del maíz, sigue siendo venerado como precursor del Sol, y a veces se confunde con Cristo. Este libro aporta, además, el complemento indispensable de la perspectiva indígena, in situ, en la diacronía y la diversidad de las situaciones. Al término de sus lecturas e investigaciones y de la confrontación con las fuentes, Stresser-Péan Ilega de manera natural a la explicación que se desprende de todo ello, describiendo el ambiente de religiosidad que impregna la existencia cotidiana de los indios de México, las danzas practicadas desde los tiempos más antiguos, y los rezos dirigidos a los dioses. Es así que los indios de la meseta central parecen completamente convertidos al cristianismo, sin embargo, los grupos indígenas de la Sierra de Puebla practican un cristianismo sincero pero teñido de paganismo. En El Sol-Dios y Cristo estos hechos son convocados y hablan por sí solos a través de un intérprete receptivo. “Tanto por su multiplicidad como por su gran amplitud, los temas abordados en este libro constituyen una verdadera Suma, una obra de consulta que de ahora en adelante se volverá imprescindible para todos los mexicanistas.”

This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. Offering key insights into critical debates on the construction, management and destruction of heritage in Muslim contexts, this volume considers how Islamic heritages are constructed through texts and practices which award heritage value. It examines how the monolithic representation of Islamic heritage (as a singular construct) can be enriched by the true diversity of Islamic heritages and how endangerment and vulnerability in this type of heritage construct can be re-conceptualized. Assessing these questions through an interdisciplinary lens including heritage studies, anthropology, history, conservation, religious studies and archaeology, this pivot covers global and local examples including heritage case studies from Indonesia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Jordan, and Pakistan. .

"No previous full-scale study has been undertaken so far to study the polemical writings of the Muslim reformist Muḥammad Rashīd Riḍā (1865-1935) and his associates in his well-known journal al-Manār (The Lighthouse). The book focuses on the dynamics of Muslim understanding of Christianity during the late 19th and the early 20th century in the light of al-Manār's sources of knowledge, and its answers to the social, political and theological aspects of missionary movements in the Muslim World of Riḍā's age. The basis of the analysis encompasses the voluminous publications by Riḍā and other Manārists in his journal. Besides, it makes use of newly-discovered materials, including Riḍā's private papers, and some other remaining personal archives of some of his associates."--T.p. verso.
