Features: Taixu Master (1889—1947): A towering figure in modern Chinese Buddhism and a giant of the New Buddhism movement, as well as an advocate for Buddhist reform since the Republic of China. Taixu Master was a highly learned and deeply thoughtful Buddhist theorist. He integrated internal and external learning, old and new studies, Yogācāra and Madhyamaka, and Hua-yan and Hua-fang, proposing many original insights in Buddhist theory. Among these, his "Buddhism of Life" was later developed into the "Humanistic Buddhism" theory, becoming the guiding ideology of modern Chinese Buddhism.
