Story
Meditation isn’t the whole of Buddhism. Promoters of the mindfulness movement tend to sidestep the fact that Buddhism is a religion. Like all religions, it’s mired in the myths and superstitions of earlier times. Does it contain any spiritual content of value apart from its meditative practices? The Soka Gakkai branch of Nichiren Buddhism—the subject of this book—is now the largest Buddhist denomination in a range of countries, including Japan, Brazil, Ghana, Italy, and the United States. It has largely moved out of the past, bridging the gap between present-day realities and the ...

Story
Buddhism's messages are timeless. Yet they're often obscure. How do we best uncover them? In his third Buddhist-themed book, author J.M. Walsh peels away the layers of conflicting doctrine and supernaturalism to expose the tradition's most profound and basic tenets. He does so through a carefully researched four-way conversation among a surprising cast of characters: a non-Buddhist of our time, the Buddha, and two later teachers, Nagarjuna and Nichiren. The voices of the three sages reflect Buddhist discourses and writings. Although the discussion is fictional, its content isn't entirely ...

Story
The timely story of Dutch Brazil (1631-1654), intriguing in itself, opens a window on a clash of ideas. What is liberty? Is it freedom for a narrow class to run things as it pleases? Or is it an equality of rights for all? By the seventeenth century, the Dutch and Portuguese had diverged on this point. The invasion of Portugal's prize colony of Brazil by the Dutch Republic can serve to highlight the move to contemporary views. Today both nations are comembers of the European Union, NATO, and other bodies, and embrace democratic norms. What changed? This question is addressed throughout the ...
