The Splendid Vision: Reading a Buddhist Sutra
"Cohen has combined a fascinating Buddhist text—a veritable manifesto on the ritual powers of mantra, inscribed word, and sculpted image—with an incisive and lucid essay on the meaning of ‘scripture’ in religion. In its focus on gestures, practices, and their glorious exemplars in heaven, The Splendid Vision certainly rounds out the popular image of Buddhist texts and will make essential reading for courses on Buddhism, Asian religions, and scripture in world religions." — David Frankfurter, William Goodwin Aurelio Chair of the Appreciation of Scripture, Boston University
