在线互动。。。 学弟妹问，Can we investigate or even question Buddhadharma? (哇！年纪轻轻的他们就已经很有智慧哦。) 我回答， “The Buddha counselled his followers to be sceptical, to critically examine what he told them, not to accept what he said merely in good faith. The buddhist philosophers such as Nagarjuna, Aryadeva, Buddhapalita, Chandrakirti and Shantideva took this advice to heart. They made an effort to investigate and understand dharma. Today, science has evolved in the West among scientists who engage in a correspondingly strict investigation of dharma, e.g. reality. Despite cautions that ‘science is the killer of religion’, today, many of them are showing interest in, for example, ancient Indian knowledge of the mind.”
