DESCRIPTION:Paul Groner and Lori Meeks will lead participants through close
  readings of passages from the Chōmonshū\, a collection of teachings att
 ributed to the Vinaya revivalist Eison (1201-1290). This collection of sho
 rt sermons and anecdotes provides great insight into the social and cultur
 al life of Buddhist monasticism in medieval Nara. \n\nBios\nPaul Groner re
 ceived his Ph.D. in Buddhist Studies from Yale and spent most of his caree
 r at the University of Virginia. His research has focused on the Japanese 
 Tendai School and the precepts.  His interest in ordinations and monastic 
 discipline have led him to research on Eison and the status of nuns in med
 ieval Japan.  Among his major works are Saichō: The Establishment of the 
 Japanese Tendai School and Ryōgen and Mount Hiei: Japanese Tendai in the 
 Tenth Century. He is also the translator of HIRAKAWA Akira’s The History
  of Indian Buddhism\, vol. 1.\n\nFlyer | RSVP
