Studies on Humanistic Buddhism IV: Human Life contains eight translated articles, two original articles, two commentaries, and a perspective piece all relating to human life. Human life is a topic with a vast scope. It was chosen because it is central to Humanistic Buddhism. As several articles in this volume and previous volumes discuss, Humanistic Buddhism developed as a response to the perception that Buddhism no longer related directly to human life. By the nineteenth century in China, Buddhism was seen to provide what came to be mainly perfunctory rituals to be performed upon the death of a family member. Humanistic Buddhism revived Buddhism as an intrinsic part of daily life.

A character in a popular television drama series made a statement about the use of "botulism virus" against Fidel Castro. An investigative reporter with a network affiliate station in Denver did a report about Iraq having "deadly anthrax virus" in its arsenal of biological weapons. A report that canola oil in animal feed causes "Mad Cow" disease circulated via email. The author of a romance novel created a main character who was a virologist, then had the virologist working with Anthrax in her lab. What do the purveyors of these gems of information all have in common? Every one of them is WRONG. How will you know when you're receiving incorrect information? You could embark on a program of study of biology, chemistry, and microbiology at the nearest college. If you don't have the time or inclination to become a microbiologist, you can read this book. This book covers what everyone needs to know about germs, such as how to kill them and what diseases they cause, without requiring a background in biology. Anyone can read this book. This book will teach you about germs--how they spread, diseases they cause and how you can kill them.

The rationale for Humanistic Buddhism derives directly from the Buddha, "because the Buddha was born, cultivated the path, became enlightened, and strived to enlighten others in this world." It is with this understanding that Venerable Master Hsing Yun proceeds to elaborate on the many ways in which the Buddha's teachings can guide us through challenges in life. In doing so, he affirms the basic spirit of Humanistic Buddhism that centers on the conviction that the Dharma is of crucial pertinence to humanity. Humanistic Buddhism is a book that not only embodies this spirit, but also discusses how it can be infused in life. As a "blueprint" of sorts for conduct and ethics, it is a handy manual for guiding us, as well as a lucid exposition of some of the main tenets in Buddhism. Through illuminating examples and references to Buddhist teachings, Venerable Master Hsing Yun provides insights into many facets of the human condition. He shows how emotions, ethics, family, society, government, and the environment are all areas for contemplation and cultivation. In short, what Humanistic Buddhism reminds us of is that Buddhism is part of life, not separate from it.

What in Brief is Buddhism is at once an erudite and accessible guide to the fundamental teachings of Buddhism, as well as to the major aspects of its practice. Divided into pithy and clearly delineated chapters, the book covers topics ranging from the roots of Buddhism in Indian thought to important aspects of Buddhist doctrine, such as the Four Noble Truths, and also to how Buddhism is practiced today in various parts of Asia. In covering such a vast territory of history, doctrine, and practice, the book serves as a meaningful encounter with Buddhism. Writing with primarily a Western audience in mind, Ananda Guruge draws from his extensive knowledge of Buddhism as both a long-time scholar and practitioner. This rich exposition of Buddhism's historical development and regional expansion is further enhanced by the addition of an anthology of Buddhist writings, and by a useful dictionary of Buddhist terms. All these resources make What in Brief is Buddhism a comprehensive guide to all the major aspects of the Buddhist tradition.

All businesses want to do well, but can they also do good? Lloyd Field says yes, and moreover, no business can afford to focus simply on "doing well." Increasingly, public assessment of a business's worth must take into account its consideration of shared human values. That doesn't mean a business can't or should not compete; it means that investing in efforts to build a better society can, on many levels, be an asset. In this book, Field lays out the guidelines for putting social responsibility, both corporate and individual, into practice without sacrificing profits. Drawing from traditional Buddhist teachings, Field shows how, with attention to ethics, skillful means, and corporate responsibility, entrepreneurs and decision-makers can achieve new levels of happiness and security both inside the company and out, while acting as a powerful force for positive global change.
