Is a general introduction to Buddhist cosmology, specifically to the thirty-one realms of existence in which rebirth takes place. Buddhist cosmology is an important part of traditional Buddhism, but is often neglected in modern Buddhist practice and thought. The present Wheel volume will help to fill the lacuna in information on Buddhist cosmology. The essay is useful for both average readers and scholars alike as the complicated subject is clarified in a clear and accessible way.
