- W4238161252 abstract "This chapter examines the centrality of the Buddha's house in the ascetic imagination. If Buddhism and its various practices are ascetic in nature, dwelling is a key locus within that, and the Buddha's house is its paragon. The “Buddha's house” encompasses the range of architectural constructs and references made in the context of the Buddha's habitation. This chapter first discusses the architecture of the Buddha's house before turning to the gandhakutī, regarded as a very special “place of the Buddha” and referred to as the fragrant house and the house of absence. It then considers the cubical structure known as harmikā, the most polysemic and enigmatic object in Buddhist architecture. It also describes the Buddha's house as a significant site and subject for reflecting on the scope and limits of renunciation and on the constructive, ritual, and existential dimensions of asceticism. Finally, it explores how the Buddha's house mirrors the ascetic body." @default.
