Scholars and practitioners from a variety of Buddhist cultures,
philosophical traditions, and academic disciplines analyze
important dimensions of the new cross-cultural Buddhist women's
movement: the status and experiences of women in Buddhist
societies, feminist interpretation of Buddhist tenets, and the
relationship of women to Buddhist institutions. Buddhist Women
Across Cultures documents both women's struggle for religious
equality in Asian Buddhist cultures as well as the process of
creating Buddhist feminist identity across national and ethnic
boundaries as Buddhism gains attention in the West. The book
contributes significantly to an understanding of women and religion
in both Western and non-Western cultures.
