Although scholars often study Esoteric Buddhism and Pure Land Buddhism as if they were mutually exclusive, diametrically opposed, schools of Buddhism, Aaron Proffitt examines the context of the eastward flow of Mahayana Buddhism from India to Japan and uncovers Mahayana Buddhists employing so-called esoteric approaches along the path to awakening.
