Pick your own topic to address in the paper. Whatever you choose, your goal is to bring to bear what you have learned from Buddhism to the book you chose, in order to show how the depicted reality of the person’s life reveals the complexity of Buddhism in America as a lived religion that can shed fresh light on our understanding of various issues raised in the class. Paper should be at least 2,500 words (12-point font, 1-inch margins). Do not write a book report, but a focused analysis with a clear thesis and a compelling argument. Aim for analysis, not your impressions alone. Proper formatting and citation with substantive references to page numbers and judicious use of quotations (quality over quantity) to back up your assertions.
