《浩瀚邮海游圣境》

Buddhist Heritage - A Journey Through Stamps

 

本书是作者近40年收藏佛邮的心得，经过对邮票主题的整理，并通过个人多年从事佛教工作上的学习所得，以及空余时间的资料整合，陆续发表于各大佛教刊物的文章结集而成的。

 

每一张邮票背后都有一个故事。

 

每一张述说着与佛教有关的邮票 - 佛邮；也各有其独特的典故。作者以其对佛教多年的认识和投入参与，以资料性和故事性的载体，精简的连文与邮票，呈现给广大读者，这是本书的特点。

 

《浩瀚邮海寻圣境》通过各国发行的佛邮，为我们讲述世界各地的佛教遗址和圣地，以及其中的佛教文化遗产。在方寸间，作者带我们邮游佛国，感受佛教对世界的影响和其传承。

 

这样的一部作品，对于个人读者，是一本了解佛教在世界各地状况的游记；对于整体佛教，也是一份宝贵资料的整理和记录。

This book features the author’s collection Buddhist stamps which he has painstakingly built for nearly 40 years. With his past involvements and experiences in Buddhist works along with his research carried out through out the years, Leong has presented us with a series of interesting stories and events told by the Buddhist stamps that he collected.

 

There is a story behind every stamp. Each stamp is related to Buddhism – Buddhist Stamps as we call it; also have their unique personal story to tell. Leong highlighted and illustrated each stamp with stories and key information related to it. This is the uniqueness of this book.

​

The stamps in this book focus on the collection of World Buddhist heritage sites and holy places. Readers will be able to see that the influence of Buddhism on this world is strong and still very much alive today.

 

As individual readers, you will find it is a good source regarding the state of Buddhism around the world; and the book serves as comprehensive reference to the development of Buddhism as whole.
