Et moi, et moi, et moi ! - Le sujet dans le bouddhisme et la philosophie
written by Christophe Richard (Paris, Ile-de-France: L'Harmattan, 2019), 110 page(s)
Moi, je, ego, personne, individu, autant de termes par lesquels nous désignons le sujet substantiel que nous croyons être. Seulement, peut-on trouver en nous une quelconque unité singulière et constante ? Contre toute attente, certains philosophes osèrent en douter, mais c'est surtout le Bouddha qui fit peser...

Moi, je, ego, personne, individu, autant de termes par lesquels nous désignons le sujet substantiel que nous croyons être. Seulement, peut-on trouver en nous une quelconque unité singulière et constante ? Contre toute attente, certains philosophes osèrent en douter, mais c'est surtout le Bouddha qui fit peser les plus graves soupçons sur notre prétendue subjectivité. Si le sage indien ne nia pas l'existence de notre moi empirique, il remit en cause l'idée qu'il s'agissait d'une substance. Le moi existerait donc sans pour autant être réel. Comprendre la nature de cet ego permettrait de se libérer des souffrances qu'il engendre. Il en va ainsi de notre bonheur.

Le Prophète de l'Islam eut le privilège de créer un Etat et de le gérer pendant une décennie, tout en continuant d'avoir le bénéfice de la Révélation. De l'Etat ainsi germé, émergeront des valeurs qui n'appartiendront pas seulement au moyen-âge, mais constitueront aujourd'hui encore des référents incontournables pour une saine gestion des Etats. L'histoire ne devra jamais oublier que les premières règles du Droit International Humanitaire firent leur apparition à l'occasion des premiers conflits armés de la nouvelle religion, gérés par le Saint Prophète.

Bhakti, a term ubiquitous in the religious life of South Asia, has meanings that shift dramatically according to context and sentiment. Sometimes translated as “personal devotion,” bhakti nonetheless implies and fosters public interaction. It is often associated with the marginalized voices of women and lower castes, yet it has also played a role in perpetuating injustice. Barriers have been torn down in the name of bhakti, while others have been built simultaneously. Bhakti and Power provides an accessible entry into key debates around issues such as these, presenting voices and vignettes from the sixth century to the present and from many parts of India’s cultural landscape. Written by a wide range of engaged scholars, this volume showcases one of the most influential concepts in Indian history—still a major force in the present day.

Buddhist representations of the cosmos across nearly two thousand years of history in Tibet, Nepal, and India show that cosmology is a rich language for the expression of diverse religious ideas, with cosmological thinking at the center of Buddhist thought, art, and practice. In Creating the Universe, Eric Huntington presents examples of visual art and architecture, primary texts, ritual ideologies, and material practices—accompanied by extensive explanatory diagrams—to reveal the immense complexity of cosmological thinking in Himalayan Buddhism. Employing comparisons across function, medium, culture, and history, he exposes cosmology as a fundamental mode of engagement with numerous aspects of religion, from preliminary lessons to the highest rituals for enlightenment. This wide-ranging work will interest scholars and students of many fields, including Buddhist studies, religious studies, art history, and area studies.

'Knowledge is Power' – a statement commonly attributed to an eminent English philosopher and scientist in 1597, still highlights today the importance of knowledge in the modern world. Education forms the basis of our knowledge and its development, from our earliest experiences at school through to Higher Education. Individuals use their knowledge in their professional and personal lives, and society as a collective of individuals shapes the world in which we live. Therefore the power of education is one of the keys to developing a successful society and benefits humanity at large. But things have gone very wrong! Society, values and morals are all in decline. How has education lost its power to build an effective and fair society? How can this decline be reversed? In The Power of Education, the author goes back to first principles and asks: what is education, and what do individuals and society need from education? Reconnecting education with the 'heart and soul' of humanity, and finding that great purpose of mankind is paramount. This is distinct from a 'knowledge factory' that merely develops individuals for material advancement and personal progression. Values, morals, compassion, empathy, gratitude, mutual respect, fairness and social responsibility are all essential traits for individuals that collectively form a successful society, and these traits need to be instilled during the entire educational experience. By rethinking and developing an effective education methodology one can work towards building a better world, based upon equality and fairness for all.

The history of Islamic thought is marked by a continuous tradition of internal revitalisation and reform embedded in the principles of islah, and tajdid. The ultimate purpose has been to bring existing realities and social change in line with the transcendent and universal standard of the Qur'an and Sunnah through a process of restoration and reform. The tradition of islah-tajdid has thus consistently challenged the Muslim status quo and prompted fresh interpretation of the Qur'an and Sunnah, understood and implemented through the methodologies of interpretation and ijtihad, as well as the rejection of unwarranted accretions to the original messages of Islam. The basic theme of the paper is that civilisational renewal is an integral part of Islamic thought. The paper looks into the meaning, definition and origins of tajdid and islah and their relationship with ijtihad, and how these have been manifested in the writings and contributions of the thought leaders of Islam throughout its history. It also develops tajdid-related formulas and guidelines that should lead the efforts of contemporary Muslims in forging the objectives of inter-civilisational harmony and their cooperation for the common good.
