Near Light We Shine

Buddhist Charity in Urban Vietnam

Description

Near Light We Shine explores the growth of grassroots charity movements in Vietnam. Volunteers promote altruism by citing the Buddhist proverb, "What is near ink, darkens; what is near light, shines", and this book traces how Buddhism directly affects and inspires these widespread yet relatively small-scale grassroots charity movements.
