Abstract

The book “Thai Buddhism in the Buddhist World” is of great importance for the Buddhists and any persons interested in the Buddhism, especially the students of the history of Buddhism. It provides a lot of information not only about Thai Buddhism and situations of Buddhism in many countries such as India, Sri Lanka, Burma, Laos and Cambodia etc., but also Buddhism in the modern world and in the western world. Having studied the book, besides knowing and understanding the ups and downs of Buddhism in many countries, we can realize the instability, unendurability and insubstantiality of Buddhist situation, which is constantly changing according to causes and conditions, both internal and external. When we know the impermanence of Buddhist situation from this book, we not only should establish ourselves in heedfulness, but also have to prevent and rectify the causes of decline and Bring about the causes of growth and prosperity of Buddhism. Therefore, it is so inspiring to me to review this book.
