Description: In this book, the author expresses the view that the laws and regulations of the priesthood belonging to a religion extensively professed as the system of Gotama, must necessarily be an object of great interest. This work contains an account of the origin, laws, discipline, sacred texts, religious ceremonies, and the practice of mendicancy founded by Gotama Buddha. The book consists of twenty five chapters that include the laws and regulations of the priesthood, names and titles, the novitiate, ordination, mendicancy, the diet, sleep, the order of nuns, the sacred books, nirvana, as well as the prospects of the future.
