Ascetic Self: Subjectivity, Memory and Tradition
by Flood, Gavin
|
|
Asceticism, the idea of giving up sensual pleasures in order to attain a spiritual goal, is practiced in many religions. Focusing on Christianity, Buddhism and Hinduism, Flood argues that asceticism must be understood within the boundaries of tradition in order to avoid a problematic universalism on the one hand and an area-specific relativism on the other. | |
