Power, Wealth And Women In Indian Mahayana Buddhism
Presents the study of the important Mahayana Buddhist scripture Gandavyuha-sutra. This book provides a fresh approach to the study of Mahayana Buddhist sources, the 'systems approach', by which literature is viewed as embedded in a social system. It analyses the key themes of power, wealth and women to its social context in ancient India.
