PREFACE
What is Buddhism? What has Buddhism to do with all of us in eveyday life? How should we learn and practise Buddhism to attain Enlightenment? In answering these vital questions, this book shows us where lies the great significance of Buddhism.
The correct way to understand Buddhism, as this book points out at the outset, is to look into every aspect of Buddhism objectively, unbiasedly and thoroughly. Buddhism is everyone’s Dharma. For us, Buddhism lies nowhere but rightfully in the phenomena of the world.
Imparting general knowledge of Buddhism, this book present a cursory review of the essential aspects of Buddhism in a broad outline. In Part One some fundamental questions such as the interrelationship of matter, mind and nature, the phenomena of the universe and human life, the law of Causality, the question of suffering, and others are treated in condensed statements extracted from some popular Mahayana sutras and sastras. What is said in Part Two of the numerous and diversified Buddhist practises on mind-cultivation comes from no other source than those Patriarchs’ and those Enlightened Master’s own experiences of self-realization.
