The Concept of Applied Buddhism: Application of the Buddha's Teachings in Daily Life

By Dipak Kumar Barua and Ankur Barua

"Applied Buddhism" is the application of Buddhist teachings in our daily life. It is a broad umbrella under which all the essential aspects of life such as physical, mental, social and spiritual well-being as well as philosophical, bioethical, financial and modern scientific aspects could be incorporated. This includes the Buddhist ideas practiced by the three major schools of Buddhist thoughts in modern era, namely the Theravada, Mahayana and Tantrayana (Tibetan) traditions. "Applied Buddhism" also shares valuable information on Buddhist contributions to modern science, health and well-being. The Buddha had always encouraged his disciples to engage in examining his teachings and findings in order to relate how much of it is applicable to their respective daily life. The followers of Applied Buddhism believe in sharing their views on critical analysis of the teachings of the Buddha in modern scientific perspectives.
