This book explores the Buddhist role in the formation of Tibetan religious thought and identity. In three major sections; the author examines Tibet's eighth-century conversion; sources of dispute within the Tibetan Buddhist tradition; and the continuing revelation of the teaching in both doctrine and myth.

Review
2 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Confusion; what else ?By Filippo ZizzoIt's very difficult for me to judge in unflattering way a text that is meant to be a tool to understand well contemporary Judaism.The miscellany of authors and discordant and different voices unfortunately do not help a novice or a "ger" find a firm; serene unity of thought. It is a text suitable for learned people who already know everything or almost everything about Judaism.It is not suitable for beginners.Filippo Zizzo
