INT-244 Topic 5 Branches of Buddhism and American Buddhism.pdf
There are three main schools of Buddhism: Theravada, Mahayana, and Vajrayana. Theravada focuses on monastic living and becoming an Arhat. Mahayana believes anyone can become enlightened and aims to help others. Vajrayana, practiced in Tibet, uses visualization and deities to achieve enlightenment rapidly. Within Mahayana are six schools, including Zen which emphasizes meditation, and Pure Land which follows Amitabha Buddha. When Buddhism came to America it was presented as a spirituality, therapy, and way to find modern answers and unity. Leading advocates helped popularize it as a compatible philosophy.

Awakening
Awakening: An Introduction to the History of Eastern Thought engages stu-
dents with lively anecdotes, essential primary and secondary sources, an
accessible writing style, and a clear historical approach. The text focuses
primarily on India, China, and Japan, while showing the relationships that
exist between Eastern and Western traditions. Patrick Bresnan consistently
links the past to the present, so students may see that Eastern traditions,
however ancient their origins, are living traditions and relevant to modern
times.

teen chapters and important connections between them

• An extensive rewrite of Chapter 5, which deals with the subject of Ash-
tanga Yoga as expressed in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali
• A greatly improved presentation of Buddha's "Four Noble Truths" in
Chapter 10
• A total recasting of the teaching of Nagarjuna in the Madhyamaka sec-
tion of Chapter 12
• A clearer and easier to understand presentation of the teaching of the
Dao De Jing in Chapter 14
• A major revision of Chapter 18 so as to clearly distinguish Chinese Chan
from Japanese Zen
• Greater emphasis throughout, where pertinent, on the role of meditation
practice in all Eastern traditions
• Revised and updated Questions for Discussion at the end of each chapter
• New photos and two newly produced videos prepared by the author for
the book's companion website: http://patrickbresnan.com/.
Patrick S. Bresnan is a retired professor of history and philosophy at De Anza
College, Cupertino, California, where he created a four-quarter course, Intro-
duction to Eastern Philosophy, dealing with the historical development of the
major philosophical traditions of Asian countries. That, plus extensive travel
and study in Asia, resulted in the production of the college-level text Awaken-
ing: An Introduction to the History of Eastern Thought. Other books by Patrick S.

Budhism
Buddhism originated in India over 2,500 years ago when Siddhartha Gotama attained enlightenment and became the Buddha. The key teachings of Buddhism are the Four Noble Truths about suffering and its causes and cessation, and the Eightfold Path to end suffering. Buddhism spread from India and has divided into three main branches - Theravada, Mahayana, and Vajrayana. Buddhism has had a significant influence in many Asian countries through its teachings, monastic communities, and architecture such as pagodas and temples. Modern Buddhism has adapted to different cultures while maintaining the core philosophical beliefs.

Buddhism originated in northern India with Siddhartha Gotama, known as the Buddha, who was born in 563 BC and sought enlightenment. At age 29, he dedicated his life to finding the key to human happiness and eliminating suffering. For over 50 years, Buddha taught and traveled, establishing the foundations of Buddhism. He attained enlightenment and taught the principles of the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path until his death at age 80. Buddhism then spread from India to other parts of Asia, and today there are over 300 million Buddhists worldwide who follow the philosophy and teachings of Buddha.
