{"product_id":"6614","title":"Daughters of the Buddha","description":"\u003cp\u003eA testimony to the invaluable contributions made by the women who were direct disciples of the Buddha and a source of inspiration to Buddhist women today.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt s a common perception that the earliest textual records don t contain many, if any, teachings by the Buddha s female disciples; yet, this is not the case. In fact, the earliest discourses record a range of teachings from Buddhist women, lay and monastic. Unfortunately their important contributions have so far not received the attention they deserve.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Daughters of the Buddha, esteemed scholar-monk Bhikkhu An layo examines the accounts of the first female disciples in the canonical scripture, taking the reader back to the earliest period in the history of Buddhism that can still be accessed today. He dedicates each of the twenty-one chapters in the volume to an individual and remarkable woman, sharing her particular insights and teachings with the reader. Both nuns and laywomen are featured in these pages, and their diversity of voices and richness of thought will serve as instruction and encouragement for modern scholars and practitioners alike.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003chr\u003e \u003cp id=\"interview\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView the interview and questions-and-answers session with the author.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e to view Vimeo chapter markers on small screens, you may have to turn your screen to landscape position.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cdiv id=\"video\" style=\"padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"\u003e     \u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1005251164?title=0\u0026amp;byline=0\u0026amp;portrait=0\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border: 1px solid #666\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center; margin: 20px 0;\"\u003e     \n  \u003cp\u003e\u003ca class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/download.pariyatti.org\/free\/6614\/an_interview_with_ven_analayo_daughters_of_the_buddha_720p.mp4\" rel=\"enclosure\"\u003eDownload Video (720MB)\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/download.pariyatti.org\/Presents...\/Interview_Ven_Analayo_Daughters_of_the_Buddha.mp3\" rel=\"enclosure\"\u003eDownload Audio (61MB)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center; margin: 20px 0;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/t6N284MHi3k\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eView at YouTube\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Analayo, Bhikkhu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42101604221022,"sku":"daughters-of-the-buddha","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/3677\/0142\/files\/daughters-of-the-buddha_f0e7846b-6aad-461d-921a-98d7dac4c990.jpg?v=1760548955","url":"https:\/\/pariyatti.org\/products\/6614","provider":"Pariyatti","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
