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.

評分"When we live without awareness, numb to small delights, we may more easily fall into addictive behavior, as we need increased levels of stimulating sensations, either pleasant or painful, in order to feel alive."
評分“佛學是真實的”這一陳述並不包括佛學中宗教性的內容,它指的是釋迦摩尼最早對於人類狀況(human condition)最基礎的洞見和理解。在2500年前幾乎沒有現代科學知識的背景下,釋迦摩尼通過冥修對人性根本狀況進行瞭深刻洞察,而在此洞察基礎上提齣的一係列主張,和現代科學對人腦的認識、對進化心理學的理解竟是完全可以印證的。因此,佛學幾韆年前提齣的道德主張、精神追求不是憑空而來,而是基於和現代科學一緻的對人性的洞察,它沒有過時,對現代人同樣意義深遠。這就是此書的主旨。 這本書的前半部分主要闡述佛學對人腦基本狀況的觀察、理解、洞見,指明人痛苦的來源以及解脫方式,把這些與現代科學對人腦的基本認知互相印證。後半部分則著重於講述這些洞見對人的道德主張、精神追求的意義。
評分從進化心理學角度看冥想、佛學很有趣。不過齣版商起這個書名未免有點過,作者本人並沒這麼狂妄。Robert Wright 和 Sam Harris 都成功地印證瞭靈修和科學可以兼容。這本書作為冥想、西方佛學入門書很閤適。特彆那些對冥想不屑一顧的人尤為閤適,比如我。
評分既饒有趣味,又腦洞新開,掌握瞭一些認知科學的最新前沿知識。賴特的文筆也頗具幽默感,讀起來蠻有意思。

評分有段时间挺认同,“做人最重要的就是开心”,当然,能让自己开心的还包括了关爱别人等等:出发点虽自私,效果却可能正面。 后来知道了,这是功利主义。而康德说,尊崇功利主义的人是不自由的;事情的衡量标准,除了为你带来的功用”utility“,还有人心中的“道德律”。只是…....
