Reproduction in any other format, with the exception of a single copy for private study, requires the written permission of the author. All enquiries to: [email protected] Review of Going Forth: Visions of Buddhist Vinaya Brian Nichols* Going Forth: Visions of Buddhist Vinaya. Edited by William M. Bodiford. Honolulu: University of Hawai'i Press, 2005, x + 317 pages, ISBN: 0-8248-2787-2, US $48.00 (cloth). Monasticism has been a central feature of the Buddhist tradition from its founding in India to its present revival in China and spread to America. Given the importance of monasticism and the vinaya, the rules for living as a monk in a monastery, it is refreshing to find a volume dedicated to exploring this terrain. Going Forth is a collection of essays about the vi- naya, precepts, ordinations, penance rituals, monks and monasteries in China and Japan written by former students of Stanley Weinstein and presented in his honor. Given the nature of the volume, the connection between chapters is necessarily loose, bearing on disparate issues related to the vinaya and monasticism in China and Japan across time periods ranging from the fifth to the twentieth century. A brief introduction notes the central role traditionally ascribed to the vinaya as the instrument through which the Buddhist order is estab- lished and through which the Buddhist teachings are preserved and transmitted.

For my worthily principle advisor Associate Professor Dr.Chalong Tubsree, I send my heartfelt thanks for his patience and guidance in helping me. In the process of composing this paper, he gave me much academic and constructive advice, and helped me to correct my paper. Without his enlightening instruction, impressive kindness and patience, I could not have completed my thesis. His keen and vigorous academic observation enlightened me not only in this thesis but also in my future study. At the same time, I would like to express my appreciation to my Co-advisor, who gave me useful literature knowledge and information in this paper. She is Assist. Prof. Dr. Wilai Limthawaranun. I am very grateful for her patient guidance in the course of my thesis writing. Finally, I would like to thank the teachers who helped me during my entire study process in the International Graduate Studies Human Resource Development Center of Burapha University.
