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.
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

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…....
评分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...
评分看过很多所谓的科学与佛学之间的牵扯文章,当时看了很热闹,回头想想,都是扯蛋的文章,其实佛学本来是相当简单的,大部分都是关于如何实操的,对于宇宙啊、哲学啊,佛陀本人是不感兴趣的,他的核心的理论都是为了一个目的:灭苦。玄而有玄的文章,实际上离真正的佛学远之又远...
