Early Buddhist Ceremonies - by Sayadaw Bhaddanta Silanandabhivamsa

 Essays on marriage - companions of Zen training - by Seikan Hasegawa - book - In his latest book, Hasegawa, a Japanese-born Zen Buddhist monk who has lived in America for the last 30 years, explains the Zen attitude toward marriage. In 22 short essays, he covers everything from virginity and sexual desire to jealousy, children, unusual marriages, divorce, and loyalty. The advice he gives sometimes seems inconsistent and contradictory, swinging from the very tolerant and forgiving (adultery and gay marriages are acceptable) to the very intolerant (abortions are not). But generally Hasegawa takes a commonsense approach toward problems likely to arise in a marriage. Although he is at home in the English language, his writing is peppered with odd phrases ("as useless as a dead fox") and wrong words ("playmate" instead of "tennis partner"). Hasegawa is the author of two other books (e.g., The Cave of Poison Grass) that also offer practical Zen suggestions for living.

 If the Buddha Dated: A Handbook for Finding Love on a Spiritual Path by Charlotte Kasl - book - In this practical, playful, yet spiritual guide, Charlotte Kasl, author of the highly successful Finding Joy: 101 Ways to Free Your Spirit and Dance with Life, shows you what it would be like to have the ancient wisdom of the Buddha to guide you through the dating process.

 

 If the Buddha Married by Charlotte Kasl - book - Last year, psychotherapist Charlotte Kasl explored the first flushes of romance in If the Buddha Dated; now she takes the next step in If the Buddha Married: Creating Enduring Relationships on a Spiritual Path. There is some strong, wise marital advice here, but how Buddhist is it? One glaring fact that Kasl never so much as mentions is that the Buddha did have a wife and child, whom he abandoned in the quest for enlightenment. A more interesting book would have investigated the tensions between the demands (and joys) of marital relationships and the individual's need to embark on the spiritual journey.--Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc

 Neither Monk nor Layman: Clerical Marriage in Modern Japanese Buddhism - by Richard Jaffe - book - Jaffe does a masterful job of weaving together into a compelling narrative his extensive and well-documented historical sources... This is an important contribution to modern Japanese religious history. Choice [A] richly detailed and clearly written work... Jaffe provides abundant material for anyone interested in state-religion issues... A must read for anyone interested in Japanese religious history, Buddhism, or Japanese history. -- Stephen G. Covell Japanese Journal of Religious Studies This work carefully integrates a deep understanding of Buddhist doctrine with historical detail and ethnographic description. On the issue of clerical marriage in Japanese Buddhism, not only is Jaffe's book the only show in town, but it is a show that no one interested in Japanese Buddhism, Meiji history, church-state relations, religious celibacy, modernization, or secularization would want to miss. -- John S. LoBreglio Journal of Asian Studies One of the most commonly misunderstood aspects of Japanese Buddhism involves the marriage of clerics. Buddhists from most other countries consider this a sign of the overall decline of Buddhism in Japan and think that Japanese clerics are simply incapable of controlling their desires... Both sides of this complex issue are presented clearly, and the idea of over-all decline is thoroughly debunked. This cross-disciplinary book is important not only to studies of religion but also to those of anthropology and history. -- Sarah Horton Religious Studies Review Jaffe's work is beautifully referenced and composed, full of illuminating sidelights and contextual explorations, and displaying powerful detail and tireless pursuit of textual evidence... Jaffe's research performs a quite groundbreaking synthesis in any language. -- Galen Amstutz Journal of Japanese Studies

 Wedding Zen: Calming Wisdom for the Bride - by Susan Ella Macneal - book - For stressed-out brides-to-be, finally there's an alternative to last-minute elopement: Wedding Zen is an oasis of calm amidst the chaos of planning a wedding. By applying the classic teachings of Zen to time-honored nuptial traditions, this darling book shows that a little namaste can improve The Big Day in a dramatic way. Drawn from Zen teachings such as staying mindful of worldly attachments (remember: it's the thought, not the gift, that counts!) and surrendering the ego (but she's your mother, and you love her), here are dozens of tips for warding off trouble in nirvana. Wedding Zen packs a bouquet of wisdom into a charming, beautifully illustrated volume, making this a perfect bridal shower gift. So when preparations get a little crazy -- or a lot crazy -- relief for the bride, and good karma for the giver, is close at hand.
