About the Book

CONTENTS: Introduction, Shapes, Colours, Sounds, Bodhi Kendra: A Centre for Praxis of Deshkal Society, Selected Bibliography, Aknowledgements Imaging Bodh Gaya captures heritage and contemporary life in an ancient land, tracing its history in a timeline of events leading up to Buddha's enlightenment and beyond while exploring the richness and variety in cultures and their adherences that have found a home in Bodh Gaya from far away shores with Buddhist presence. Now a home to temples and monasteries built by countries with historical and continuing Buddhist tradition as depiced in the book, the string of cultural and religious outposts of Asian countries offer up a rich kaleidoscope of customs and traditions unique to their regions, attracting tourists and pilgrims alike while slowly transforming the Bodh Gaya landscape into one where cultures, native and foreign, coexist in a shared future while hewing closely to ancient Buddhist traditions and way of life shown by Buddha.
