Fifty-two talks were given at the Sheng Yen Lecture Hall (located in the official residence where Master Sheng Yen lived in his final years). The talks were titled A Living Example, Countless Teachings— Encounters with Master Sheng Yen and we invited all his monastic and lay disciples to share with us their stories about Shifu, how he taught them through his living example and words. Listening to these speakers’ personal accounts of the interactions between teacher and student allowed the audience to commemorate Master Sheng Yen’s journey, and once again hear his gracious teachings. The talks include stories of Master Sheng Yen’s everyday life, how he would give detailed guidance to his disciples regarding their speech and actions. There are also accounts of his travels to share the Buddhadharma locally and overseas, reaching out to the public, and teaching them skillfully and flexibly based on the existing circumstances.

  • Humanistic Buddhism: Plurality and Humanistic Buddhism in the Context of a Buddho-Christian Comparison
    《 》學報 ‧ 藝文│第二十六期 外文論文 Humanistic Buddhism: Plurality and Humanistic Buddhism in the Context of a Buddho-Christian Comparison Chen Jian Director, Center for Buddhist Studies, Shandong University 1. Introduction On the morning of July 27, 2015, Venerable Master Hsing Yun met scholars and other devotees attending the Third Symposium on Humanistic Buddhism on the third floor of the Dharma Transmission Center, during which he gave a speech “How I Realized Humanistic Buddhism,” (originally titled “The Causes and Conditions that Guided Me to Humanistic Buddhism”).1 I had the great fortune of personally listening to this speech, during which Venerable Master responded to doubts (eight of them) on Humanistic Buddhism raised by those who do not quite understand it, covering topics such as tradition and modernization, laity and monastic, transcendence and engagement, origins and contemporary, spiritual cultivation and activities, etc. In all, Venerable Master Hsing Yun proposed twenty approaches, of which the third was: Faith is complex and plural, but the Humanistic Buddhism we propose can unite this complexity. It is because of the energy from our Buddha-nature that all can be accomplished. Even though faith is of varying depth and plural types, there are different depths of faith 1. 〈我對人間佛教的體認〉,(原來題目叫〈我對人間佛教的因緣〉)-Ed. 164 Humanistic Buddhism: Plurality and Humanistic Buddhism in the Context of a Buddho-Christian Comparison of various types, Humanistic Buddhism will complete the varying approaches of all religions. This is the tolerant nature of Humanistic Buddhism, which can serve as a faith for all humankind.2 In this quote, Venerable Master Hsing Yun clearly mentions Humanistic Buddhism’s plurality, which is the same as that of Buddhism as a whole, and should not be seen as a school or modality of Buddhism.

  • 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.

Abstract Chapter Four of Fusheng Liuji (Six Chapters of a Floating Life), a unique autobiographical prose work by early Qing- dynasty author Shen Fu (1763-1825), records Shen's travel to many parts of the country and contains a multitude of place names, whose rich cultural connotations pose a great challenge to the translator. Drawing on Javier Franco Aixelá’s taxonomy of translation strategies for treating culture-specific items, this paper attempts to describe the translation strategies adopted by world-renowned writer and translator Lin Yutang to handle these place names.

This renaissance may be explained first of all by a softening of the state’s policy towards religion since the reforms were launched at the end of the 1970s. China’s Buddhists now enjoy greater freedom to restore the monasteries, recruit novices, organise ceremonies and spread their beliefs. The progressive discrediting of the utopian grand narrative of communist society that once underlay the value system defined by the state is also leading more and more individuals to turn—or turn back— towards Buddhism.

  • Urban Temples and Ritual Affects: Communal Festivals, Local Gods, and Development Plans in Modern Xiamen
    URBAN TEMPLES AND RITUAL AFFECTS: COMMUNAL FESTIVALS, LOCAL GODS, AND DEVELOPMENT PLANS IN MODERN XIAMEN by Daniel M. Murray A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy McGill University Department of East Asian Studies Montreal, Quebec, Canada September 2019 Copyright © Daniel M. Murray, 2019 Abstract This dissertation presents the first comprehensive study of communal religion in urban China based on fieldwork conducted in and around Xiamen city, a Special Economic Zone in Fujian province in the southeast of the country. The project analyzes the modern historic development in the city in relation to temples and urban infrastructure and considers the ways in which contemporary ritual events and temple organizing influence city life through different forms of spatial organization and bodily sensation. It shows the complex interaction between urban temple devotees, Daoist priests, Buddhist monastics, opera performers, and a variety of other religious performers who circulate throughout the region. Despite the destructive role urban development had on temples throughout the twentieth century, in the past thirty years the reconstruction of temples has allowed neighborhoods to organize development projects and charitable works throughout the city that would otherwise not have existed. These projects are closely connected to the perception of a god’s spiritual efficacy and the experience of ritual events, which I analyze in terms of the collective affective atmospheres,
