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.2 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.
Three Great Messengers
「高牆心聲」—佛光山監獄教化活動的文本挖掘及 LDA 模型分析研究
佛教參與罪犯改造具有理論和實踐的雙重意義。本文以佛光山監獄教化活動為研究對象,意在通過分析參與者的直接回饋,探索活動對服刑人員的作用,提供監獄教化組織參考;使用TF-IDF 關鍵字提取和 LDA 模型,並進行特徵分組,分析106 篇參與心得;佛光山的監獄教化活動能夠積極影響參與者,不同活動產生不同效果。活動立足佛教「心靈」解脫,效果與「四給」理念契合,與教化點關係不大,與活動設計關係密切。「佛學會考」、「三皈五戒」活動具有較強宗教色彩,參與者更專注從內心獲得精神歸屬,群體間思想感悟相似。巡迴講座參與者更容易與主講人共情,加強自我反思,產生特有的內心感受。命題式書畫競賽在一定程度上束縛了參與者思惟發散與情感宣洩。教化活動呈現連續性和承接性,與佛教「信解行證」修行契合。但教化組合仍處於非自覺狀態,未來的教化活動須靈活組織,有針對性地開展。
