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).
##這本書去除瞭超自然現象,隻留下哲學和冥想修行的方法論,隻把佛陀當成一個覺悟瞭的哲學傢,用現代科學的知識,嘗試解釋一些佛學的概念和觀點。

評分##在Coursera的“佛教與現代心理學”上知道這個作者,結閤進化心理學討論佛法這個路子非常對胃。其實在接觸作者作品以前我就構想過提綫木偶的比喻,現在那個string和puppeteer的真麵目越發清晰瞭。
