December 2015Gift of the Dark Mother Earth
by Can Xue
Gift of the Dark Mother Earth, the latest novel by Can Xue, is a profound metaphor of her hometown. It follows her usual magical style in the sense that it vividly unfolds the complex and delicate inner world of the characters. The story takes place in the remote Wuliqu School, with such distinctive characters as Teacher Meiyong, Zhang Danzhi, Yutian, Xiao Man, Uncle Yun and Sha Men presented one after another. The personality and human nature exposed through unique dialogues enable the readers to feel a return to simplicity so that they want to explore human soul and nature and start in-depth reading and thinking. The book depicts petty matters in a great age. The author’s ambition is to create a feeling for the pattern of the whole universe through the structure of an ordinary tree leaf, and to unify the arbitrarily split world through the narration of various folk sundries so that different characters can all become the center of this unity and their performance can have a universality. As the only Chinese writer who has won the Best Translated Book Award in the United States, Can Xue was nominated for the foreign novel prize of The Independent of the UK and shortlisted in the Neustadt International Prize for Literature of the US. As the Chinese woman writer, whose works have been translated and published the most abroad, Can Xue has been called the most creative Chinese writer by overseas critics.

Humanities & Social SciencesHumanistic Buddhism

It is with this understanding that Venerable Master Hsing Yun proceeds to elaborate on the many ways in which the Buddha's teachings can guide us through challenges in life. In doing so, he affirms the basic spirit of Humanistic Buddhism that centers on the conviction that the Dharma is of crucial pertinence to humanity.

The Buddha's Light Philosophy
by Master Hsing Yun
The Buddha’s Light Philosophy, written in Chinese by Venerable Master Hsing Yun and translated by Fo Guang Shan International Translation Center (FGSITC) will be of interest to anyone who wants to learn about Fo Guang Shan, the Buddha’s Light International Association (BLIA), and their relevance to today’s society. Venerable Master Hsing Yun, the founder of the BLIA, advocates modernization, a focus on the world in which we live, and the systematization of Buddhism. The present work examines these ideals as they specifically apply to the management and accomplishments of the BLIA and the Fo Guang Shan Buddhist Order. The Buddha’s Light Philosophy describes the foundation of the BLIA, its purpose, its mission, concepts, and guidelines. Not only does it serve the people and spread a joy among them, it also encourages us to model our practice and behaviors on the four great bodhisattvas and abide by the teachings of Humanistic Buddhism. First published in 2002, this new edition of the Buddha’s Light Philosophy contains up-to-date information on the activities of the BLIA over the last decade, and updates much of the terminology to reflect the changes in Fo Guang Shan and in the wider Buddhist community. The BLIA is an organization that belongs to all the Buddhists in the world, and hope we can apply the teachings of the BLIA and the Buddha’s Light Philosophy to help us, our community, and the entire world.
