In presenting Sokdokpa’s career and legacy, Gentry traces the theme of power objects across a wide spectrum of genres to show how Tibetan Buddhists themselves have theorized about objects of power and implemented them in practice. This study therefore provides a lens into how power objects serve as points of convergence for elite doctrinal discourses, socio-political dynamics, and popular religious practices in Tibetan Buddhist societies.Brill's Tibetan studies library ;volume 40.Power (Christian theology)Religious aspectsBuddhismRnying-ma-pa (Sect)Rnying-ma-pa lamasChinaTibet Autonomous RegionBiographyPower (Mechanics)Religious aspectsBuddhismPower (Philosophy)Religious aspectsBuddhismPower (Social sciences)Religious aspectsBuddhismPower resourcesReligious aspectsBuddhismElectronic books.Power (Christian theology)Religious aspectsBuddhism.Rnying-ma-pa (Sect)Rnying-ma-pa lamasPower (Mechanics)Religious aspectsBuddhism.Power (Philosophy)Religious aspectsBuddhism.Power (Social sciences)Religious aspectsBuddhism.Power resourcesReligious aspectsBuddhism.294.3/923092BGentry James Duncan963707MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910163122303321Power objects in Tibetan Buddhism2185017UNINA00689nam a2200205 i 450099100434592110753620241016154648.0241016s1952 it er 001 0 ita dBibl.
