| 摘要 | This article begins with looking at and addressing the main themes and principles of the Buddha’s teachings in terms of ontology and cosmology in Western metaphysics. It is found that the Buddha always taught metaphysical principles in entirety through comprehensive approach and vision instead of viewing ontology and cosmology as separate entities. For Buddhism various metaphysical themes are connected closely as different aspects of one issue of human life or in regard to the world. Some major topics in metaphysical discussions and teachings of the Buddha: impermanence, suffering, emptiness, selflessness and dependent origination, are visited. The formation of the twelve-chain cycle of birth and death as well as the ideal pure land in the Buddha’s teachings is also interpreted. The relationship of these ideas to and the implications of Buddhist metaphysics for social wellbeing are unveiled. |
