Program for The XVIth Congress of theInternational Associationof Buddhist Studies
Dharma Drum Buddhist College
Jinshan, New Taipei City, Taiwan
June 20–25, 2011

Welcome Address
Huimin Bhikshu
President, Dharma Drum Buddhist College
Professor, Taipei National University of the Arts
Dear friends and colleagues:
It is an honor and a pleasure for the Chung-Hwa Institute of Buddhist Studies andDharma Drum Buddhist College to host the XVIth Congress of the International Association of Buddhist Studies (IABS) in Jin-Shan District, New Taipei City, Taiwan
from June 20th to 25th, 2011.
With the opportunity to organize such a grand and meaningful conference, we really have to show our appreciation for the support and guidance of numerous Buddhist
scholars, our staff, and volunteers. We are also grateful to welcome more than 500
scholars from more than 32 countries all over the world to present their papers, withmore than 600 scholars attending over 100 panels and sections. I would like to take thisopportunity to offer my best wishes for a successful conference, and for good healthand happiness to all of you.
Our founder Master Sheng Yen (1931-2009) mentioned in one of his books that
he attended and presented a paper at the first International Conference on the History
of Buddhism, organized by Dr. A.K. Narain at the University of Wisconsin, Madison,in 1976. In addition, he was involved in the formation of the IABS (International
Association of Buddhist Studies) and became one of the founding members.
He also attended the first IABS conference organized by Columbia University in1978 as well as subsequent congresses. Buddhist studies and the IABS were of great
importance to him. In 2007, it was his wish that Dharma Drum Mountain could havethe opportunity to host a Congress of the IABS, so that Buddhist scholars in Taiwan
might interact with Buddhist scholars from around the globe, for the benefit of Buddhist studies globally.
Therefore, in 2008 we sent representatives to attend the XVth Congress of theIABS, organized by Emory University in Atlanta, USA, to offer to host this XVIthCongress. Although Master Sheng Yen passed away before he could welcome all ofyou personally, we are pleased to express his sincere best wishes on his behalf.
This year is also the centenary anniversary of the Republic of China; it is also
the first year since the elevation of Taipei County – where Dharma Drum Mountainis located – to New Taipei City. New Taipei City is different from Taipei County:
it is transforming from an agricultural and industrial-based rural area into one which3has great potential to develop into a modern, green city. It is therefore an especially
auspicious time for us to host the IABS congress.
In addition to academic sections and panels, during the conference we will also
arrange a series of activities: an exhibition of Master Sheng Yen’s calligraphy; theexhibition and demonstration The Ink and Brush Art of Lin Chi-Fong; the Chan ofTea; a choice of Conference Excursions; and the performance “First Moon, Full Moon”
by the Seeing Smiling Theatre of the Deaf. This play is based upon the well-known
Buddhist story of the “Banyan Deer,” but with a modern interpretation and a poetic
touch. 12 deaf actors and 5 hearing actors use beautiful Taiwan Sign Language andspoken words in English simultaneously on stage.
Finally, we wish to transfer the merits of this Buddhist conference to those sentient
beings who have suffered and continue to suffer in the natural and man-made calamitiesof the world – may they have peace of mind and soon be liberated from suffering.

Excursions
Thursday June 23, 2:00 pm–5:00 pm
The Organizing Committee has arranged three excursions for Thursday afternoon that
conference attendees may choose among. Those who might prefer a restful afternoon
will be offered a Zen tea ceremony on campus. Thursday evening all are invited tohave a boxed dinner and enjoy a theatrical performance hosted by Quanta Computer
Inc. of New Taipei City.

(1) Excursion to Ju Ming Modern Art Museum
Located directly above Dharma Drum Mountain, the Ju Ming Museum is Taiwan’s
only outdoor sculpture museum. Ju Ming (1938-) is a sculptor well-known both in
Taiwan and in New York art circles. Not only the fascinating sculptures, but also thearchitecture, landscape design, and gardening were all carried out or overseen by Ju
Ming himself. The museum’s spacious grounds afford superb views of the mountains
and ocean. Inside are exhibits and cafes.

Yeliu Geopark on Taiwan’s northern scenic coast is one of Taiwan’s most interesting
tourist attractions. Believed to be 10-25 million years old, the park remins most visitorsof a surreal lunar landscape. The limestone and calcium carbonate surface of the parkis filled with bizarre shapes, sculpted giant rocks, pot holes, and fossils. About 180
mushroom rocks dot the coastline. The most famous of these is the Queen’s Head rock,believed to be about 4,000 years old.

Excursions(3) Excursion to National Palace Museum
Taiwan’s National Palace Museum was originally the Palace Museum in Beijing’s Forbidden City, established 1925. At that time the museum consisted of the treasures of
the Emperors. Today the museum’s extensive collection of Chinese artifacts and artworks makes it one of the largest in the world.
• http://www.npm.gov.tw/en/home.htm• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Palace_Museum
Due to space limitations in the National Palace Museum, we are only able to bring 200
guests. We ask those who cannot be accommodated at the museum to please choose
another excursion venue.

(4) The Chan of Tea Ceremony and Traditional Music on Dharma
Drum Mountain
Infused with the spirit of “Compassion, Wisdom, Harmony, Respect,” the Chan of Tea
ceremony is a learning experience and form of expression designed to show how tocare for others with compassion, address affairs with wisdom, and live with others inharmony and happiness.
A traditional Chinese music performance will accompany the tea ceremoney.

(5) “To Experience Chan” on Dharma Drum Mountain“Please come to join us to experience Chan in the beautiful and serene Meditation
Hall of Dharma Drum Mountain. In this two-hour program, we will begin our journeyof Chan with relaxation of our body and mind, followed by the Eight Movements ofChan Meditation in motion, sitting, walking, and finally body massage. Clear step-bystep instructions will be given in these various forms of meditation, so people new tomeditation will easily gain their initial taste of Chan joy. For experienced practitioners,
this program renders a cool break from the conference as well as refreshing bliss torestore your energy.”

Commemorative Fan
To commemorate the XVIth Congress of the International Association of Buddhist
Studies, DDBC will present each participating scholar with a traditional Chinese folding fan. The Chinese landscape painting featured on each fan was created by Hsuhua
Chien, Chief Secretary of Dharma Drum Buddhist College, who incorporates traditional Chinese landscape painting and images of Buddhism to depict the architecturaland scenic beauty of the DDM World Center for Buddhist Education. It captures therefreshing sense of ease, reminiscent of a Pure Land, that permeates the Center. Master
Sheng Yen, the founder of Dharma Drum Mountain, once remarked that, “The soundsof the streams and the scenery reflected on the water all speak of the Dharma, botharising and non-arising, the path and the pathless.”
Artist Hsu-hua Chien has been painting Chinese landscapes for more than forty
years and has been teaching the art for thirty years. She is also a yoga teacher. She
combines and integrates the aesthetics of Chan and yoga with the charm of the heavens
and nature into her Chinese landscape painting to express purity, concentration, andwisdom in the style of Chan.
