小沙彌 本書特色

半個世紀前的西藏有著怎樣的神秘往事？ 轉世活佛有著怎樣不尋常的艱難經歷？ 六百多年前，藏傳佛教格魯派創始人宗喀巴大師創造了什么樣的神奇？六百年后，他的法體又遭遇了什么樣的劫難？ 佛法故事、民間傳說、藝人說唱…… 何為活佛，何為馬幫，何為藏藥，何為唐卡，何為藏族人心中對死的理解……Half a century ago, a young Tibetan shepherd is revealed to be a living Buddha and is plunged into a world of sky burials and scripture learning, boyish pranks and sublime miracles. 600 years ago, a revolutionary teacher performs miracles and creates whole new school of Buddhism. During the Cultural Revolution, as temples and relics are smashed to pieces about them, a few brave faithful risk their lives to protect the Buddhist legacy. A mix of Buddhist legends, folk stories and modern reportage, Little Novice provides new insight into the turbulent and intriguing history of Buddhism in Tibet.
