Humanistic Buddhism: Responding to Contemporary Developments
There are contemporary approaches to the use of Buddhist practices that can be said to be revolutionary in terms of how we study and evaluate the tradition. Since these practices are directed toward the public domain, they are one type of “Humanistic Buddhism.” A challenge for Buddhist groups is how to respond to these developments. A similar challenge exists for the academic study of Buddhism. How can we understand and deal with the contemporary world that has emerged?

Humanistic Religion From Guodian to Vimalakirti
This paper will argue that the term “Humanistic Buddhism,” which Venerable Master Hsing Yun describes as central to all of Buddhism, is also fundamental to Chinese religion as a collective group. Such an expansion is in keeping with the spirit of his recent publication 365 Days for Travelers: Wisdom from Chinese Literary and Buddhist Classics. Here we see an enlargement of humanism to include a general assessment of Chinese culture. It because of this expansion that this paper uses the term “Humanistic Religion” instead of “Humanistic Buddhism.” Crucial support for the centrality of humanism to Chinese religion comes from it being expressed with the greatest clarity and earliest date in the recently excavated Guodian corpus (郭店楚簡). As such, Guodian represents a missing link between Buddhism and other pre-Han religious systems. Venerable Master Hsing-yun sees Humanistic Buddhism as a system that has particular utility for overcoming divisions; as such it is interested in developing the linkages with indigenous Chinese religion that I will be detailing in this paper. Specifically, Humanistic Buddhism: Holding True to the Original Intents of Buddha, states that the schisms which arose after the passing of the Buddha can be overcome with humanism. In the publications by Fo Guang Shan I have reviewed so far, however, recently excavated manuscripts have not been considered and this will one of the contributions of this paper.

人間仏教と現代社会
心と呼ぶことができる生物は地上には数多く生息します。しかし、考える、すなわち、「思考する」という能力を有した生き物は人間だけです。それは、人間のみが、大脳の表面を占める灰白質の薄い層からなる大脳新皮質を具えたからです。
人間仏教と中国仏教の未来
仏教が中国に伝えられ、仏典の翻訳・流布が開始されたのは、西暦紀元 2 世紀、後漢の桓帝の時代からである。以来、諸王朝の興亡とそれらの治世のありように関りながら、インド・西域から訳経僧らが断続的に来朝し、また、中国から西域・インドに求法の旅に出た僧たちが訳経僧の役割も担って帰国して仏教を宣布し、仏教は次第に広く、かつ深く中国社会に広まっていった。そして、この過程において、時代の変化に対応しながら、仏教は中国固有の思想・信仰を取り込み、故地のインドの仏教とは異なるすがたを見せるようになった。今日まで続く、この中国的に変貌した仏教―それをわれわれは、総称して、中国仏教（Chinese Buddhism）と呼ぶ。
