Localization Of Humanistic Buddhism In The West
In Venerable Master Hsing Yun’s diary summary for the latter half of January 1990, a period where he spent his time at Hsi Lai Temple in Los Angeles, we read a record highlighting two important steps in the localization of Humanistic Buddhism in the West: Starting from Hsi Lai Temple we are actualizing the first step of “The Dharma waters constantly flow throughout the five continents”, and the founding of the Buddha Light International Association will further enhance harmonious interaction and exchange between each nation worldwide. Finally, we are not letting down the Patriarch’s intention in coming from the West!(Hsing Yun 1994)
人間佛教在西方的本土化
1990 年1 月的《星雲日記》中記載,大師在美國洛杉磯西來寺弘法期間,有兩項重要紀錄,顯示著人間佛教在西方本土化的重要指標。大師說:從西來寺開始,我們踏出「法水長流五大洲」的第一步,國際佛光會的創立,加強了世界各國的融和交流,我們終究未負西來本意呀!
