Rarely visible until now, the essence of female Buddhist wisdom is a treasure as key today as in the past. This book features historical and current women in Buddhism here and abroad in three traditions: Theravaden, Zen, and Tibetan. It also presents women's powerful writings and interprets Buddhist scriptures and religious art in the light of feminine perspectives.
