"CANDANA" (quarterly)

CANDANA

Candana is a Sanskrit term that refers to a type of purple, red, and white incense wood (sandalwood) produced in India. As it is an effective cure for fever, it is also called yoraku, which means to give happiness . The distinct aroma from even a small piece of this wood is said to eliminate bad smell within a radius of 40 yojana (about 100 - 360 miles). Based on our wish to neutralize the stench of earthly conflicts and create a peaceful world, our newsletter "CANDANA" promotes exchange of information within our religious community and with external research organizations.

『アーユスの森新書』 ("Forest of Ayus" Paperback Series, Japanese edition only)

In ancient times, humans believed that gods (or lives) reside in mountains, rivers, and trees, and stood in awe of such divine existence. The phrase "Forest of Ayus" reminds us of the image of spiritual aura flowing out from a primitive forest of life, and of primal humans who lived in and who were allowed to live by the grace of nature.

Ayus is a Sanskrit term that means "life." The soil that underlies the primitive forest of life is enlivened by the workings of a diverse species of invisible bacteria. Lively interactions among a myriad of diverse creatures and other things in the forest form a rich mosaic of life.

The "Forest of Ayus" paperback series focuses on how people should live as a part of great nature by carefully observing a wide range of phenomena and all the forms of life that hide within them. We wish to think together with our readers on how we should live in harmony, with passion for life, while facing the various issues of the modern world and society.

We will consider a broad array of topics ranging from the four inevitabilities in human life (birth, aging, sickness, and death) to familiar problems and global issues, all based on a Buddhist perspective. And all while seeking expertise from Buddhist and religious scholars, as human beings who live together in the "forest of life." We wish to make this series an opportunity for both readers and experts alike to feel, think about, and experience the preciousness and wonder of life. The "Forest of Ayus" paperback series is intended for students, and readers young and old.
