| Abstract | The intention of this papers is to show how Humanistic Buddhism developed over 2500 years ago and has “re-become” in today’s world due in large part to the determined and steadfast efforts of Grand Master Hsing Yun of the Fo Guang Shan Buddhist Order which has its main temple in southern Taiwan. From its beginnings in northern India by Sakyamuni Gautama to its currnt renaissance, Buddhism has gone through many transformations and developments. Grand Master Hsing Yun has attempted to capture the original essence of the Buddha’s teachings, especially those related to application in today’s world, as well as to developing new interpretations appropriate to current needs. He has built his belief as well as actions not only on the original teachings of the Buddha but also on the experiences and insights of previous masters such as sixth Patriarch of Chan, Ven. Hui Neng, and Ven. Tai Xu.
The Buddha taught ways for transcending earthly suffering as well as how to deal with day-to-day issues in this lifetime. He advocated equality if every human, the interconnectedness of all sentient beings, the sanctity of life and created principles related to developing positive living. In building upon these humanistic ideals, the Grand Master promotes intergrating into daily life for the benefit of both self and others. He has created a world-wide network of temples and chapters which work to bring Buddhism to every corner of this planet. It is his hope that through this process a Pure Land can be developed here so that all sentient beings can positively live their lives in order to move on to the heigher levels of existence such as Bodhisattvahood, Buddhahood and Nivan.
This paper show how the Grand Mater emerged out of th chaos of 1940s China to create the system of Fo Guang Shan which is substantially influencing many cultures through his writings , teachings and social actions. Finally, the future of Humanistic Buddhism is explored through studying the current structure of Fo Guang Shan and obtaining viewpoints from many members within it including the Grand Master himself.

佛陀不僅教導我們如何超越世間之苦，而且也指引我們如何應世接物。他倡導人人平等，眾生彼此密切關聯，生命的神聖，並建立健全生活的法則。為了弘揚這些具有人間性的理念，星雲大師將佛陀的慈悲喜捨教義融入日常生活已自利利他。他在全球廣設寺院道場及佛光會，將佛法散布到世界各個角落，期能在人間建設淨土，讓所以眾生都能積極面對生活，進而朝向菩薩乃至佛果涅槃等更高的品位。
本文論述星雲大師如何走出1940年代的戰亂中國，開創佛光山體系，並透過寫作、開示及社會活動，以實質的方式對各地文化產生影響。最後，本文從佛光山目前的結購，即包括星雲大師在內的許多人佛光人的觀點，對於人間佛教的未來進行探討。 |
