Festivals And Holidays Of Lamaism is a book written by L. Austine Waddell that explores the various festivals and holidays celebrated in the Lamaist tradition. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the religious and cultural significance of these events, as well as their historical origins and evolution over time. It covers a wide range of topics, including the major festivals such as Losar (Tibetan New Year), Saga Dawa (the month-long celebration of Buddha's birth, enlightenment, and death), and Tsongkhapa Day (honoring the founder of the Gelugpa school of Tibetan Buddhism). The book also delves into lesser-known festivals and rituals, such as the Fire Puja and the Cham Dance. Throughout the book, Waddell provides insights into the symbolism, mythology, and practices associated with these events, drawing on his extensive knowledge of Tibetan Buddhism and his experience living among the Tibetan people. Overall, Festivals And Holidays Of Lamaism is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the rich cultural heritage of Tibet and the spiritual traditions of Lamaism.THIS 20 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Buddhism of Tibet Or Lamaism, by L.
