摘要At the 1st International Conference on Humanistic Buddhism, sponsored by the International Academy of Buddhism in 1999, Ven. Master Hsing Yun offered a concise statement on the nature and goals of Humanistic Buddhism. Guruge's book is a thoughtful commentary, suggesting that we can come to a better understanding of Humanistic Buddhism in regards to its place in promoting and establishing the universality of Buddhism [and] its relevance and effectiveness in the modern world. Not merely a scholarly work, Guruge examines the development of Buddhism as it has evolved to meet challenges and needs through time, and he ponders the importance of the work of Ven. Master Hsing Yun, whom he calls the foremost Chinese scholar-monk of our times. Guruge also draws on autobiographical references attributed to the Buddha and discusses the different schools of Buddhist thought to further emphasize the far-reaching and comprehensive nature of Buddhism and its relevance to modern times.

Comparing Master Hsing Yun's Humanistic Buddhism to an umbrella enveloping all sects, schools, and traditions of Buddhism, Guruge examines how this all-embracing vision is extended to everyone seeking to transform their spiritual practice. Using a quote from Ven. Master Hsing Yun, Guruge demonstrates the significance of the Master's work as a unifying force for global social change: Humanistic Buddhism encourages us to participate in the world and to be a source of energy that is beneficial to others. Our enlightenment depends on others, just as their enlightenment depends on us. The oneness of all life and the unity of all life inspire us to participate in life. By serving others we serve ourselves. By recognizing the Buddha in others, we learn to find him in ourselves. In our search for self-actualization, the book is an indispensable look into how the humanity of Buddhism can guide us towards our well-being in the here and now.
