The highest ideal of the modern West has been social transformation: to restructure our societies so that they are more just. The most important goal for Buddhism is to awaken (the Buddha means “the Awakened”): personal transformation. Dr. David Loy explores how we need both, not just because these ideals complement each other, but because each project needs the other if it is to be successful.
Dr. David Loy is a writer, scholar, and Zen teacher in the Sanbo Kyodan tradition of Japanese Zen Buddhism. Dr. Loy’s recent research has focused upon the encounter between Buddhism and modernity, exhibiting special concern regarding social and ecological issues.
