Printed 2001 PDF file created by Amitabha Pureland http://www.amtbweb.org Taking Refuge in the Three Jewels We are here today for the Initiation Ceremony of the Three Jewels, which are the Buddha, the Dharma and the Sangha. I would like to clarify what taking refuge in the Three Jewels means since there have been growing misunderstandings in recent times. These need to be cleared up in order to receive the true benefits. What is Buddhism? Is it a religion? Buddhism is not a religion but rather the most profound and beneficial education based on forty-nine years of Buddha Shakyamuni’s teachings for all sentient- beings. In 1923, Mr. Oyang Jingwu spoke at the University of Zhongshan. The title of his lecture was “Buddhism Is Neither a Religion Nor a Philosophy. It Is a Modern-day Essential.” This lecture was an insightful breakthrough that shook the contempo- rary Chinese Buddhist world. Since Buddhism is an education, we need to understand exactly what its objectives, methods, and principles are. In the Prajna Sutra, we read that its objective is the truth of the Dharma (the causes that initiate all the phenomena of life and the universe). Life refers to us while the universe refers to our living environment. Therefore, the educational content of Buddhism guides us so that we will clearly understand our living environment and ourselves. Today, the formal educational system only partially explains the phenomena of the universe and much of this remains to be proven.

As a Buddhist priest and philosopher, as a poet and novelist, as an essayist and commentator on his own time the body of his work is many-faceted. This is reflected in the various views of his work. Some critics emphasise his nationalism and the part he played in the independence movements which followed the March 1, 1919 uprising and interpret his work in this light.

  • Shaolin Collection - 1
    : Shaolin Collection - 1 The History of the Shaolin Temple By: Uwe Schwenk (Ying Zi Long) Shaolin Collection - 1: The History of the Shaolin Temple 1 Introduction This is the first in a series of documents, which are in my opinion considered essential for studying Shaolin Gong Fu. About this Library Most of these documents are translations of historical texts which are just now (2003) beginning to emerge. For this library, only the texts considered as core by the author to the study of Shaolin were selected. While some of the readers might question some of the texts in this collection, please bear in mind, that Shaolin has a different meaning for every person studying the art. Shaolin Collection - 1 One of the most important aspects is history. In the opinion of the author, history defines the future. Therefore, the first document contains the Shaolin History as conveyed to the author by the Da Mo Yuan, and confirmed by Grandmaster Shi Weng Heng and Grand Master Chi Chuan Tsai from Taiwan. Note: The images included are from my private collection and some are courtesy of the Shaolin Perspective website under http://www.russbo.com. Introduction: About this Library 2 The Shaolin Temple History Northern Wei Dynasty 386- 534 The construction of the temple was in honor of the Indian Deravada monk Batuo (Buddhabhadra), he was in 464 one of the first Indian monks that came to China.

    Research Article Ann Soc Sci Manage Stud Volume 4 Issue 3 - September 2019 Copyright © All rights are reserved by Weicheng Cui DOI: 10.19080/ASM.2019.04.555638 On Faith or Belief Weicheng Cui1,2* 1School of Engineering, Westlake University, China 2Shanghai Engineering Research Center of Hadal Science and Technology, Shanghai Ocean University, China Submission: September 17, 2019; Published: September 30, 2019 *Corresponding author: Weicheng Cui, Chair professor at Westlake University, China and adjunct professor at Shanghai Ocean University, China Abstract Nowadays the opinion of philosophy being useless seems to be very popular in young generation and they will answer you that they do not have a faith if they are asked. As far as the present author is concerned, this view is very incorrect. The power that faith brings to him is enormous. In this paper, the various issues related to faith are discussed. The main points of the paper are: (1) Faith is the same as the body, and everyone has it. The only difference is whether you believe in yourself or others. (2) Since the Hierarch has passed the historical test to be a successful person and he is more reliable to be trusted than yourself. (3) There are three criteria to consider when choosing the Hierarch. The first is whether the life of the Hierarch is what you need; the second is whether the theory of the Hierarch can stand the test of scientific standards; the third is how many great people were cultivated by this philosophy. (4) Five suggestions on how to apply faith to guide your work or life are given.

  • Chan-Pure Land: an Interpretation of Xu Yun’S (1840-1959) Oral Instructions
    Chung-Hwa Buddhist Journal (2011, 24:105-120) Taipei: Chung-Hwa Institute of Buddhist Studies 中華佛學學報第二十四期 頁105-120 (民國一百年)，臺北：中華佛學研究所 ISSN:1017-7132 Chan-Pure Land: An Interpretation of Xu Yun’s (1840-1959) Oral Instructions Damian John Gauci The University of Melbourne Abstract Pure Land and Chan have typically been acknowledged as the two remaining poles of Chinese Buddhism. Pure Land practitioners revere Amitabha Buddha and seek not nirvana but rebirth in the Land of Bliss (jile shijie 極樂世界). Enlightenment is thereby conferred in another time and through another power (i.e. the vows of Amitabha). No more is there retrogression on the path, and the devotee can place all his efforts toward the realization of Buddhahood. By way of comparison, Chan accentuates sudden awakening, advocating the completeness of human capacities and directly pointing to the mind itself. Whereas Pure Land calls upon faith, vows and practice (xin, yuan, xing 信、願、行), Chan asserts the sealing of mind to mind, a ‘transmission outside the teaching.’ The remarkable disparity between the two led to Pure Land philosophy and devotion solidifying “into a carefully-defined and narrowly conceived sectarian movement which claimed to be the only effective method and all-sufficient source of salvation for everyone.” Although this movement dissolved into the very vitality of Chinese Buddhism, debate has, contrary to popular opinion, remained alive and even been revived again in contemporary Chinese Buddhism. It is the aim of the paper to explore this continued debate by focusing on the teachings and advice of Xu Yun 虛雲 as one of the many figures promoting dialectical harmony and understanding.

  • Hanshan Deqing on Exile, Zhen Poetry and ‘True’ Chan
    Genuine Anguish, Genuine Mind ‘Loyal’ Buddhist Monks, Poetics and Soteriology in Ming-Qing Transition-era Southern China by Corey Lee Bell A THESIS SUBMITTED IN FULL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE OF Doctor of Philosophy in The Faculty of Arts (Asia Institute) The University of Melbourne June 2016 0000-0003-4549-7308 Printed on Archive-quality Paper Abstract The best known genre of Chinese Buddhist poetry is the ‘nature’ or ‘landscape’ poems, which were seen to have religious value because they promoted ‘detachment’ from society and used the tranquillity of a secluded scene to reveal the monastic author’s inner calm. However, during the tumultuous period of dynastic decline and transition in seventeenth- century China, some monks saw religious value in poems that reflected their ‘entanglement’ with a crisis-ridden society, poems that even expressed agitated emotional states prompted by the moral and political disorder of their era. The monks who developed this type of poetry and the literary theory which justified it did so while serving in temples in southern China. These clerics shared an important attribute – they were ‘loyal’ to the ill-fated Ming dynasty (which ruled China until 1644, after which it was replaced by the Manchu Qing), a loyalty that was manifest during the period of the dynasty’s decline and after its fall. A distinctive characteristic of the poems of these monks and of their writings on poetry is that the authors affirmed in different ways the use of poetry to express ‘indignation’ (yuan 怨), particularly indignation at political injustice and social and moral disorder.
