Bodhisattva Precepts and Their Compatibility with Vinaya in Contemporary Chinese Buddhism: A Cross-Straits Comparative Study (Part 1)
Bodhisattva ideas have steadily developed since medieval times, to become key characteristics of Chinese Mahāyāna Buddhism. Monks and nuns in the Mahāyāna tradition generally have bodhisattva precepts conferred upon them while undergoing the Triple Platform Ordination, and adhering to both these precepts and the bhikṣu/ bhikṣuṇī precepts is a conspicuous feature of Mahāyāna monastic practice. Against this backdrop, it is worth exploring Chinese monastics’ perceptions of the bodhisattva precepts and ideal, and the practices surrounding them, in the current sociocultural contexts of Taiwan and Mainland China. Though both these regions share the same tradition of Chinese Mahāyāna Buddhism, it has very different manifestations. This long-term, cross-Straits comparative study also reveals a hitherto under-theorized conflict between vinaya rules and the bodhisattva ideal.

2019致護法朋友的一封信
各位護法、朋友們，大家吉祥！「千門萬戶曈曈日，總把新桃換舊符」，2019己亥年是豬年。十二生肖中，豬，代表一個循環的圓滿和繼起。星雲大師題寫「諸事吉祥」一筆字春聯，祝福大家，身心自在。兩年前，大師腦部手術，在高雄長庚醫療團隊的照護下，復原良好。92歲的大師說：「我沒有痛苦，我沒有生病，只是有點不方便。」心繫兩岸和平及人間佛教的發展，大師說：「我還要更努力。」佛世難逢，大善知識難遇，僧信二眾當奮起飛揚，追隨大師推動人間佛教的腳步。
