Publications & Resources
HBC and its researchers continue to produce quality research outcomes, including articles, bibliographies and other resources. Its flagship research publication is the Studies on Humanistic Buddhism journal.
Cultivating Compassion: Going Beyond Crises
The book Cultivating Compassion: Going Beyond Crises presents different approaches that aim to advance our understanding of the questions and dilemmas posed by current global crises and the cultivation of compassion. The book’s authors and editors explore how compassion can alleviate the suffering of climate change, the Covid-19 Pandemic, war, ever-rising inequalities, and other global challenges.
Studies on Humanistic Buddhism
Studies on Humanistic Buddhism is a journal with articles translated from Chinese by a worldwide team of volunteer translators, editors, and proofreaderes. We also publish original English articles, commentaries, and student papers. The aim of the journal is to provide access to articles on Humanistic Buddhism in english for scholars. The journal is a result of a unique translation process that employs an online work workflow with a cloud-based glossary. Hard copies of the journal are published by Fo Guang Shan Institute of Humanistic Buddhism and the Nan Tien Institute of Higher Learning.
HBC Research Outputs
HBC researchers continue produce a wide range of quality research outcomes.
The Bibliography Visualiser Project
The NTI Visualiser spurned from the first thematic academic bibliography on Humanistic Buddhism. The idea of allowing researchers to not only build their own bibliography, but further explore and quickly grasp its content was an attempt to allow a more dynamic approach to the Humanistic Buddhism Bibliography’s content.
NTI Ethos Project
The intention of this resource is to identify the pathways to integrate the Buddhist ethics positioning (called Buddhist Ethos), of NTI, into the Institute’s day to day life and operations. It can also be used as a framework for other organisations seeking to integrate Buddhist ethics into their workplaces and projects.
Mindful Check-In App
The Nan Tien Institute’s Humanistic Buddhism Centre designed this app especially for the busy lives we lead today and guides us through the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
The Detox Series
A series of free weekly webinars offering holistic guidance and support to the public in response to the COVID-19 Pandemic.
