| Summary: | From its origins, Buddhism presents itself with traits of singular modernity. The Buddhadharma is a set of beliefs and practices that aim to overcome the discomfort (dukkha) that characterizes the human condition. Not a system of thought that claims to be true, therefore, and not even a divine revelation, but usefuls means to reach an end. This non-ideological character of Buddhism, which has not prevented and does not prevent the emergence in the Buddhist world of phenomena of religious fanaticism (like the Buddhist nationalism in Sri Lanka), re-emerges in some of the major contemporary thinkers, engaged in dialogue with the rationalist and secular West. I will focus on the figure of the Vietnamese Zen monk Thich Nhat Hanh, one of the greatest living Buddhist masters. By developing the Buddhist theory of emptiness in his conception of being, Nhat Hanh develops a politically committed Buddhism and lays the foundations for a philosophy of dialogue and nonviolence. |
