Buddhism is often the religion that teachers have the least confidence in teaching despite being the sixth largest religion in the UK and being commonly regarded as one of the six major religions to be taught in schools throughout the country. This book explores the beliefs and practices of Buddhism as a lived religion in the UK. This book engages with Buddhist beliefs and practices and provides students and teachers with the confidence to address misconceptions and recognise the importance of beliefs in the lives of believers, in a way that will enable readers to go forward with confidence. Aspects of Buddhism explored include the concepts that form the central beliefs of Buddhism, and then the expression of these beliefs in worship, daily life, and the ethics of Buddhists in the modern day. Each chapter includes authentic voices of believers today and provides opportunities for the reader to consider the concepts and how they can be respected and taught and in the classroom. The book forms part of the Teaching Religions and Worldviews series of guides, each one designed to build teachers' confidence and expertise in teaching a different religion or worldview in the classroom..

Today the world is confronted with many religious wars and the migrations of millions of persons due to these conflicts. There is a need for informed dialog as to the roots of the conflicts and ways of addressing these in ways that speak to peoples’ minds and hearts. This is what this book attempts to do from the viewpoint of major religious and ethical thinkers. The book relies on Bernard Lonergan’s foundational method to address problems systematically with a view to achieve breakthroughs in our openness to one another. The book appeals to the teachings of the Buddha, Jesus, and Mohammad, relying on the mystical and insights of these religious founders as well as those of dozens of their followers so as to find commonalities that can build bridges of mercy. A global secularity ethics plays a leading role in this book’s bridging efforts.

【星雲大師人間佛教思想研究(上下)】 本書從四個方面探討星雲大師人間佛教思想，透過初期大乘經典的解讀研究，發現人間佛教重視善巧方便與般若智慧互相統一的重要理論特徵，而般若智慧和善巧方便的平衡並舉辨證統一，恰恰是初期大乘佛教義理學的重大理論特徵，以此認證星雲大師人間佛教以及廣義的從太虛大師以來的現代人間佛教，和大乘佛教的精神、理論是一貫的。 【宜蘭弘法十年記―青年星雲的人間佛教之路】 本書主要說明青年時期的星雲大師，在宜蘭走向人間佛教的歷程。在宜蘭蘭陽弘法10年期間，從念佛會、歌詠隊、晉級獎金等等活動，奠基了佛光山人間佛教的基礎工程，也是從宜蘭開始，把這些成功的經驗帶到高雄，並從高雄之後發展成全球化、國際化的大型佛教教團。在這本書中，可以看到星雲大師的人間佛教，是從非常早期開始就有的理念與創新。 【宗教實踐與星雲大師的早期文學創作】 本書對大師早期的宗教事件和文學創作的整個進程，做了比較詳盡的梳理，並重點對大師創作的《無聲息的歌唱》、《海天遊踪》、《釋迦牟尼佛傳》、《十大弟子傳》、《玉琳國師》這 5 本書進行全面的研究。作者經過梳理和研究，基本判定星雲大師以文學進行宗教改革及宗教理念的宣傳。大師在他的書裡提出佛教改革和文體改革的呼聲，最後沉澱為佛光山人間佛教實踐的精神資糧。可以說，星雲大師早期的文學創作，應該看作是人間佛教理念形成和發展的一個軌跡。 【人間佛教回傳印度研究】 本書記錄佛光山在印度的加爾各答禪淨中心、德里文教中心和菩提伽耶佛學院的弘法經歷，並在寫作過程當中，發現佛教從印度到中國的變化。中國已經變成了佛教的主幹，而正這是星雲大師人間佛教回傳印度的基礎條件。人間佛教的傳播和發展，就是回歸也是人間佛教的傳播和發展，回歸佛陀的理念和思想。作者認為，包括人間佛教在內的中印文化交流，在探索文化交流、文明對話乃至全人類未來的發展模式上，可以做出獨到的貢獻。 【人間佛教視角的法華經解讀】 本書主要以人間佛教的精神解說《法華經》，分成前後兩篇。前篇是《法華經》的研究，內容涵蓋《法華經》的成立、《法華經》的特色、《法華經》與人間佛教，也包含了《法華經》的教義思想跟實踐理論等，各章分別由幾篇小論文來說明。後篇針對《法華經》28 品的內容做重點摘述，主要依據《法華文句》、《法華玄義》、《法華玄論》來解釋《法華經》經文，幫助讀者理解各品的宗旨跟大意。 【般若智與菩提心─星雲大師工夫心法研究】 星雲大師推動的人間佛教事業之所以有宏大的發展，來自他的慈悲心、菩提心和行動的般若智慧。作者以相當篇幅處理大師的著作《往事百語》，大師在書中呈現人生不同階段的100個觀念，作者認為，此即星雲大師成就人間佛教事業最高的心法所在。本書乃作者向大師學習心法的自我心得，有作者個人的成長的歷程，也有其對大師的智慧和精神的深刻體會的陳述。 【星雲人間佛教與現代管理實踐―探索性的研究】 作者認為，人間佛教擔負佛法與現代人間的溝通與連結的角色，可以和現代社會各個領域進行很好的連結，提供有益的指導，因此以人間佛教進行現代管理實踐之探索性研究。那麼，人間佛教與現代管理如何結合？作者揭示人間佛教能充實管理實踐的重要指導，並關注於管理學重大的不足之處，探索性地了解人間佛教如何補足現代管理的不足，如何大幅提升管理者的能力。 【凝視人間．悲智雙運—星雲大師的人間佛教性格與實踐範型】 本書從「凝視人間‧悲智雙運」的角度，來審視星雲大師的作略及貢獻。在研究過程裡，作者發現，星雲大師的人間佛教性格具有典範轉移的實踐範行，星雲大師的行為與影響力、語言說服力，展現出中國佛教在台灣特殊的發展。星雲大師在當代佛教的實踐與作略，開拓了實踐佛教的新場域，並且將佛法帶到全球五大洲，種種的功績與貢獻，能夠在當代建構出新典範。 【人間佛教開啟「生權」時代—星雲大師社會思想研究】 作者認為，佛教是一種以生命為中心的宗教，是生命的、平等的和敬畏的宗教，始終關注生命的形成、生命的體現和生命的圓滿。而星雲大師在體現佛陀本懷時，也緊緊抓住生命覺悟的核心問題。星雲大師的人間佛教的社會理論，從個體的覺悟到生命的覺悟、個人的修持到社會文明的進化，展開理論的框架，始終用一種人間的智慧、人間生活的形式，來呈現生命的權利，實際上包括了宗教、生命的意義，既有涅槃的敬畏，也有超世間和入世間的一種雙向的肯定。 【紅塵中建立佛陀志業—星雲大師的人間佛教】 本書透過對比基督新教跟人間佛教，來說明宗教之間立場的差異與價值。作者研究發現，人間佛教能夠解決人類5個重大當代問題，星雲大師提出「佛說的、人要的、淨化的、善美的」，是推動人間佛教的必要良藥，溫和且符合人性，人間佛教可以說是解決當代人類社會困境的最好的解方。在紅塵中建立佛陀的志業，就是星雲大師人間佛教的志業。 【天台智顗與佛光星雲的暢佛本懷】 本書具體的詮釋視角與進路，主要聚焦於如何暢通佛陀度化一切眾生的本懷，以真正開展人人皆可如佛一般，悟道覺證身心自在，煩惱即滅。作者基於對天台教觀的研究與所獲得的研究成果，認為天台智顗大師的思想，與佛光山星雲大師及其僧信弟子大力推行的人間佛教，皆具代表性的核心概念，而進行人間佛教的詮釋，乃至探究兩者如何暢佛本懷。結論是，2 位大師所弘傳的佛教，皆是以各自特有的方式，暢通佛陀救度一切眾生的慈悲心懷與生命教育。

In a culture obsessed with happiness, this wise, stirring book points the way toward a richer, more satisfying life. Too many of us believe that the search for meaning is an esoteric pursuit—that you have to travel to a distant monastery or page through dusty volumes to discover life’s secrets. The truth is, there are untapped sources of meaning all around us—right here, right now. To explore how we can craft lives of meaning, Emily Esfahani Smith synthesizes a kaleidoscopic array of sources—from psychologists, sociologists, philosophers, and neuroscientists to figures in literature and history such as George Eliot, Viktor Frankl, Aristotle, and the Buddha. Drawing on this research, Smith shows us how cultivating connections to others, identifying and working toward a purpose, telling stories about our place in the world, and seeking out mystery can immeasurably deepen our lives. To bring what she calls the four pillars of meaning to life, Smith visits a tight-knit fishing village in the Chesapeake Bay, stargazes in West Texas, attends a dinner where young people gather to share their experiences of profound loss, and more. She also introduces us to compelling seekers of meaning—from the drug kingpin who finds his purpose in helping people get fit to the artist who draws on her Hindu upbringing to create arresting photographs. And she explores how we might begin to build a culture that leaves space for introspection and awe, cultivates a sense of community, and imbues our lives with meaning. Inspiring and story-driven, The Power of Meaning will strike a profound chord in anyone seeking a life that matters.

The Fo Guang Shan Buddhist Order and Buddha’s Light International Association founded by Venerable Master Hsing Yun, two of the world’s largest Buddhist organizations, are dedicated to the spread of Humanistic Buddhism, a 21st century form of Buddhism aimed at bettering this world and human life by following the Buddha’s teachings. Throughout the past 50 years, tremendous progress has been made in the circles of Chinese-speaking communities, while steady efforts are made in rendering this vast amount of Buddhist corpus into English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, and some twenty other languages. As said, “To learn a new language is take on a new culture, a new world.” Further difficulties arise when it comes to learning Buddhism in a new language, still a world that awaits the light of wisdom and experience to be shed. Any aspiring translator daring to take on this daunting task of translating Buddhist texts into their own language would no doubt appreciate as much help as they can obtain. The present Glossary of Humanistic Buddhism 《中英人間佛教詞彙選》 is a fully revised and expanded version of the Standardized FGS Names and Terms created by the International Buddhist Progress Society (IBPS) in 2005, and approved by the FGS Board of Directors. Additional entries have been compiled from all English publications under Fo Guang Shan’s cultural undertakings, such as: Fo Guang Cultural Enterprise, Fo Guang Shan International Translation Center, Buddha’s Light Publications, Fo Guang Shan Institute of Humanistic Buddhism, and Buddha’s Light International Association (BLIA). The editorial team hopes this volume will shed light on the many references to Fo Guang Shan and BLIA terms, historical events, persons, places, publications, and frequently used Buddhist terminology, concepts, sutra titles, and quotes that appear in publications by Fo Guang Shan, as well as works of Venerable Master Hsing Yun. Entries are selected, based on the interest and request by translators at Fo Guang Shan and BLIA, in hopes that this volume assist in their readings of the Complete Works of Venerable Master Hsing Yun, understanding of vernacular Buddhist expressions, and translation works of Humanistic Buddhism. This edition contains some 5,000 entries divided into the following basic categories: 1) Terminology, 2) Building, 3) Event, 4) Department, 5) Publication, and 6) Venerable Master Hsing Yun’s One-Stroke Calligraphy, detailed further by the abbreviations listed on page viii. Suggestions and comments by perceptive readers will be of vital interest and value for the amendments of future editions. Readers are encouraged to write to the editorial team for the improvements of future editions. An online version of the glossary is available at: fgsihb.org/dictionary The editorial team would like to dedicate this edition of the Glossary of Humanistic Buddhism to all experienced and aspiring translators as well as interpreters who have paved the way for the global dissemination of Humanistic Buddhism, the Buddhism as taught by the Buddha for human beings, to purify and make this world virtuous and beautiful.

"A discussion that is meaty, contemporary and expansive . . . Berns artfully blends social critique with technical expertise."- The Washington Post Book World In a riveting narrative look at the brain and the power of novelty to satisfy it, Dr. Gregory Berns explores fields as diverse as neuroscience, economics, and evolutionary psychology to find answers to the fundamental question of how we can find a more satisfying way to think and live. We join Berns as he follows ultramarathoners across the Sierra Nevadas, enters a suburban S&M club to explore the deeper connection between pleasure and pain, partakes of a truly transporting meal, and ultimately returns home to face the challenge of incorporating novelty into a long-term relationship. In a narrative as compelling as its insights are trenchant, Satisfaction will convince you that the more complicated and even downright challenging a life you pursue, the more likely it is that you will be satisfied.
