{"product_id":"buddhist-scriptures","title":"Buddhist Scriptures","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhile Buddhism has no central text such as the Bible or the Koran, there is a powerful body of scripture from across Asia that encompasses the dharma, or the teachings of Buddha. This rich anthology brings together works from a broad historical and geographical range, and from languages such as Pali, Sanskrit, Tibetan, Chinese and Japanese. There are tales of the Buddha's past lives, a discussion of the qualities and qualifications of a monk, and an exploration of the many meanings of Enlightenment. Together they provide a vivid picture of the Buddha and of the vast nature of the Buddhist tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback \/ softback | 608 pages | Published March 2004\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GARDNERS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63997016146269,"sku":"9780140447583","price":18.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/3459\/8749\/files\/9780140447583.jpg?v=1774584116","url":"https:\/\/www.thebookmark.ie\/products\/buddhist-scriptures","provider":"The Bookmark ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
