Abstract | This book is a philosophical and comparative exposition of Zen. It brings out the values in Zen that are similar to Western philosophy. It also discusses how Zen's perception of truth, scriptural language, and religious communication resembles neo-orthodox Christianity. Zen's approach to education has roots in Confucianism. The liberation which Zen Buddhists seek cannot be explained by a metaphysical system. Yet this book repudiates the view that Zen is illogical or amoral. The inner logic of Zen is explored, and also the ways in which Zen Buddhism is a highly moral practice. The Author: Hsueh-li Cheng is Professor and Chairman of the Department of Philosophy at the University of Hawaii at Hilo. He is also adjunct professor and academic advisor to the Philosophy Department of Peking University, and serves on the graduate faculty at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Dr. Cheng has also taught at National Taiwan University, Peking University, and Ohio University. He is editor-in-chief of International Review of Chinese Religion and Philosophy. His publications include Nagarjuna's Twelve Gate Treatise, and Empty Logic: Madhyamika Empty Logic: Madhyamika Buddhism from Chinese Sources. Unsere Preise |
