Abstract | The authors develop the concept of revolution in the social and political realms in the light of such fundamental notions of buddhist philosophy as 'non-self','bondage','attachment','karma','freedom',and 'enlightenment'. they then compare and contrast revolutions in the frameworks of marxist and capitalist ideologies with the buddhist conception of revolution. the authors attempt to show that the seemingly asocial character of buddhism is precisely what makes buddhist revolution a perpetual revolution. in sharp contrast,the authors point out,other revolutions, on accomplishment,quickly become counter-revolutionary,tyrannical,and repressive. the reasons for this tragic and inevitable turn,the authors argue,are to be sought in false ontologies with the dogmas of finality and absolute truth. |
