Why Buddhism is True: The Science and Philosophy of Meditation and Enlightenment is a 2017 book by journalist and evolutionary psychologist Robert Wright. As of August 2017, the book had peaked at The New York Times No. 4 bestseller in hardcover nonfiction.
In Why Buddhism is True, Wright advocates a secular, Westernized form of Buddhism focusing on the practice of mindfulness meditation and stripped of supernatural beliefs such as reincarnation. He further argues that more widespread practice of meditation could lead to a more reflective and empathetic population and reduce political tribalism. In line with his background, Wright draws heavily on evolutionary biology and evolutionary psychology to defend the correctness of Buddhism's diagnosis of the causes of human suffering. He argues the modern psychological idea of the modularity of mind resonates with the Buddhist teaching of no-self (anatman).
Robert Wright is an American journalist who writes about science, history and religion, including The Evolution of God, Nonzero: The Logic of Human Destiny, The Moral Animal, Why Buddhism is True, and Three Scientists and Their Gods: Looking for Meaning in an Age of Information. He is the co-founder and editor-in-chief of Bloggingheads.tv.
实际上是在从哲学上解释色即是空,准备尝试践行一下
评分是有一点点啰嗦,但经常就以自问自答的方式address了我的疑问,非常贴心。是我最能接受的对待冥想的视角了。and revelational to me
评分佛学的意义在于:“把我们从自然选择给的局限视角中解放除了,从一个更高的水平观察和体验这个世界。”
评分从进化心理学角度看冥想、佛学很有趣。不过出版商起这个书名未免有点过,作者本人并没这么狂妄。Robert Wright 和 Sam Harris 都成功地印证了灵修和科学可以兼容。这本书作为冥想、西方佛学入门书很合适。特别那些对冥想不屑一顾的人尤为合适,比如我。
评分说实话一本有点专业性的,英文读本对我而言有些太困难了,没法打分希望会有中文版
作者曾经在耶鲁开过这个主题下的公开课,我在线上过这课。之后课程内容成书,数日前收到作者来信,其中有如下介绍,想读中文版的可以去找找。 This book is being translated into 20 languages. Here’s the list of publishers. Chinese ( Athena Press) Chinese (Beijing Un...
评分【看到105页想法】 (1)作者很啰嗦,像是在给小朋友讲道理,翻来覆去。难道是因为佛教在美国甚至英语国家普及度不够才会用这样初级的表达方式? (2)关于佛学、心理学及进化论的内容,差不多都是老生常谈。关于冥想的部分对我来说是新知识。但是通过冥想抑制疼痛,听起来怎么...
评分the writing quality and the depth of understanding about the science part of this author are pretty so so, which kind-of ruin the topic. Anyway, this book conveys a different (with a previous book) view how brain works: takes-in info, producing feelings (w...
评分And a nonfiction is only as good as its base assumptions and evidences. Unfortunately, this book, a detailed and expansive deliberation on author's Buddhism and Modern Psychology class content, is written in a pure bestselling book style: Lay out conclusion...
评分#2017-11-16#无我:“我”只是意识里,除去已经分布式计算的意识,再除去各种欲望进化模型的“我”(也是自动计算)的那一点点“计算”。很好的“冥想”能够更好的看见“我”,也会更自由(免于被各种进化模型绑架)。 无物:不是万事万物是空,而是我们赋予其的内涵应该是空,...
