Right Thoughts at the Last Moment: Buddhism and Deathbed Practices in Early Medieval Japan - Kuroda Studies in East Asian Buddhism
Jacqueline I. Stone
Buddhists across Asia have often aspired to die with a clear and focused mind, as the historical Buddha himself is said to have done. This book explores how the ideal of dying with right mindfulness was appropriated, disseminated, and transformed in premodern Japan, focusing on the late tenth to early fourteenth centuries.
