Method and Theory in the Study of Buddhism

Hi Everyone,

I stumbled upon an article by Dr Fa Qing on the method and theory in the study of Buddhism and thought it would be good for everyone to read about if any of you have not already done so. Please click this.

Method an Theory in the Study of Buddhism

Hi K S,

Thanks for the share.

Hope you are still using this account. I found the point below quite challenging for e-learning MA student:
3. Religion should not only be studied in books, but in living people, both in
individuals and in societies.
Those who wish to study religion, must attend religious services of all religions and
confessions, and make himself familiar with both cult-like and puritanical devotion.
What is required is not indifference, but rather an engagement of feeling, interest and
participation.

Instead, we can set up a webinar or video calls once a week to exchange knowledge or experience?

Love and light,

Phung
