Description

Explore the deep connections between ancient wisdom and modern ecology with Environmental Ethics in Buddhism: A Virtues Approach. Part of the Routledge Critical Studies in Buddhism series, this book offers a logical and thorough examination of the metaphysical and ethical dimensions found in early Buddhist literature. By analyzing general Buddhist teachings such as dhamma, paticcasamuppada, samsara, and the cosmogony of the Agganna Sutta, the author defines the meaning of nature within an early Buddhist context. This work demonstrates how early Buddhism functions as an environmental virtue ethics system. To provide practical illustration, the text utilizes the Jatakas, a collection of over five hundred folk tales from early Buddhist literature. This book is an essential resource for readers interested in how spiritual frameworks can inform our understanding of the natural world.
