Abstract | An attempt is made to clear up basic misconceptions which have tended to generate a distorted picture of buddhism. these misconceptions are usually based on historical,ideological and linguistic factors. analysis is made of such ideas as pessimism,nihilism,monism,dualism,pluralism,monotheism,polytheism,pantheism,agnosticism,atheism,relativism and asceticism. it concludes that (a) the use of labels is outmoded,(b) one must strive for a rapport and understanding between the true doctrines and the institutions which house them,and (c) clearing up misconceptions should positively open up the path to true buddhist understanding. |
