Talk:Engaged Buddhism

message: I don't think "leaders" is an appropriate term. The movement is a loose network of organisations and doesn't really have any leaders. "Influentual figures" or "respected figures" might be a better term to use. Davidreid 07:19, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: hello, this is my first edit for a school project, so any feedback is greatly appreciated! 
I think it would be helpful to add more to the origins of Thich Nhat Hanh's idea of engaged Buddhism, particularly how Hanh's experience began with the Vietnam War and how his interactions with the French soldiers lead to his desire to work towards a more peaceful society through religion, eventually coining the term "Engaged Buddhism". - does this fit this page, or would that fit better under TNH's page? 
I also think referencing S.N. Goenka, a key figure in India, could be helpful. 
Could it be useful to reference instances of Engaged Buddhism in Thailand? Here is an example of Buddhist Monks in Thailand ordaining trees as a form of protest. 
I could also see it being useful to unpack the fourteen precepts of Engaged Buddhism, would that put too much focus on TNH? 
I could also see it being useful to insert TNH's organizations that taught/spread Engaged Buddhism, such as the Order of Interbeing and the School of Youth for Social Service
Here are some other sources I plan on using when explaining these organizations as well as the origins of Engaged Buddhism
I am also planning on removing this section about Christianity: "Some Christians have rallied in attempts of bringing peace and hope to those distressed in the midst of political and social tragedies. The intention of these evangelizing groups is not to evoke tension or violence among groups or individuals,or to force any solutions onto individuals, however their goal is to provide comfort and demonstrate acts of love and kindness." I am confused about its significance to Engaged Buddhism, if there is a reason for it please let me know. 
Overall, I plan on writing approximately 200 words and adding at least five sources. If anyone wants to comment on these changes, please let me know on this Talk Page or on my Talk Page. Any feedback and guidance is appreciated, thanks. (Vbbrown (talk) 00:23, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
