Description

In the wake of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, I have found myself musing about non­violence, its contributions, its limits, and its place in the Buddha’s teaching. I have also been surprised to hear many of my acquaintances confuse the Buddha’s teach­ing of nonviolence with pacifism (which I will here take to mean the objection to any kind of violence for any reason), so that, due to their confusion, they find themselves either rejecting nonviolence as hopelessly naive and inadvertently destruc­tive, or embracing the politicized group allegiances of pacifism, which they imagine incorrectly to present what the Buddha taught.Theo nguồn: https://phapbao.net/kho-sach/
