A Study of Gender Equality in Humanistic Buddhism
Since Humanistic Buddhism was first proposed by Master Taixu, the issue of gender equality has gradually kindled widespread discussion in the field of Buddhism. During the Republican Era, Master Taixu and the female Buddhists of the Pure Bodhi Vihara have actively expressed their views on gender equality. Eventually, they reached a consensus of respecting a woman’s character, protecting her rights, and advocating equal status between men and women. After 1949, under the impetus of Venerable Master Hsing Yun, Venerable Yin Shun, Venerable Sheng Yen, Venerable Chaohwei, thoughts on gender equality in Taiwan have made great strides. After 1980, the rejuvenation of Humanistic Buddhism in Mainland China in turn developed thoughts on gender equality. As a result, the overall status of female Buddhists in Mainland China has remarkably improved.

《三世因果經》的管理學
這部《三世因果經》是在阿難的提問下，佛陀開示與會弟子，因果對我人的關係影響，如經云：「一切世間，男女老少，貧賤富貴，受苦無窮，享福不盡，皆是前生因果之報，以何所作故？先須孝敬父母，敬信三寶，次要戒殺放生，念佛布施，能種後世福田。」無論達官貴人或販夫走卒，都在「善有善報，惡有惡報」的因果定律下，業報輪迴，法界流轉。在因果之前，不分貧富貴賤，男女老少，因果業報如影隨形，人人平等；因果是人間最公平的仲裁者，也是宇宙人生最高明的管理學。
