Jikido Takasaki

Nyoraizo Shiso / Nyorai Thought, 2 volumes

Kyoto: Hozokan, 1988-1989. Hardcover. 2 volumes, cloth in slipcases, very good set. Text in Japanese. Discusses the Nyorai doctrine in Buddhism: although originally applied only to Buddha himself, with the advent of Mahayana Buddhism "Tathagata" (and therefore Nyorai) came to be used for all those who have achieved enlightenment, entities which occupy the highest of the four ranks of the Japanese Buddhist pantheon. Very Good. Item #H18163
