The timeless concept of natura et cultura serves as a vital framework, anchoring the majority of the thought-provoking papers featured in this collection. These studies delve into the Buddhist perspective on the delicate interplay between humans and the natural world, highlighting the profound connections to animals and plants. In alignment with our commitment to scholarly tradition, this volume showcases groundbreaking research derived from extensive investigations in both archives and field studies. Unique insights have emerged from the expertise of scholars across various disciplines within Buddhism.
