520 | |a In this article I offer a perspective - secular, radically engaged Buddhism - which incorporates two important trends within Western Buddhism: secular Buddhism and an "engaged" Buddhism oriented toward radical social change. I argue that secular, radically engaged Buddhism challenges two key tenets of Buddhism as it is currently practised in the West. On the one hand, secular Buddhists not only reject the transcendent divine entities and cosmological realms found in the various Asian Buddhisms, but also consider problematic the notion of an "absolute" or ultimate reality - nirvana - whether understood as the dualistic opposite to the relative, conditioned world of samsara or apprehended as an underlying ground which integrates the diversity of forms. Radically engaged Buddhists critique another tenet shared by most Western Buddhists: the view that the root cause of social problems is primarily due to individuals' thoughts, emotions, and actions being determined by greed, hatred, and delusion. Based on this dual critique, I propose an alternative approach, one which provides a more solid foundation for facilitating the intertwined processes of individual and social transformation. | ||
