A Few Good Men

The Bodhisattva Path According to the Inquiry of Ugra

by Jan Nattier

A study and translation of the Ugrapariprccha, one of the earliest Mahayana sutras. Nattier argues that early Mahayana presented the bodhisattva path as a demanding vocation for a few renunciants, challenging the theory of lay origins.
