According to the Ecological Footprint (EF) index, we are consuming
one year's worth of the world's renewable resources within the
first eight months of every year in recent times. So, during the
next four months of the year, the world is living beyond its
ecological limits. The consequences of our accumulating ecological
debt result in global climate change, species extinctions, insecure
energy supplies, water shortages and crop failures. This book is an
endeavor to reorient the community towards practicing optimum
consumption and environmental protection.
"Applied Buddhism" is the foundation of our true understanding of
all the events occurring in nature. It explains how every person
can relate Buddhist ideas in his or her daily life and in
profession. This book provides guidance for understanding the
Doctrines of the Buddha and their effective applications to reduce
our sufferings. In recent times, some of the new concepts that have
evolved in Buddhism are Engaged Buddhism, Social Buddhism, Socially
Engaged Buddhism and Green Buddhism. "Applied Buddhism" is an
effort to integrate all these scattered aspects of Buddhism under
one single and unified concept. Through this Applied Buddhism, one
should be able to follow Buddhism without being a Buddhist.
"Applied Buddhism" is the foundation of our true understanding of
all the events occurring in nature. It explains how every person

profession. This book is a humble endeavour to motivate the new
learners and provide them first-hand guidance on the vastness of
the Philosophical approach of Buddhism. It provides effective
guidance on the application of Buddhist teachings in modern
mathematics.
The Buddha himself admitted that he was the Buddha and not a
supernatural being. Though the concept of glorification was never
desired by the Buddha, but it had attracted various communities
across the world for centuries (in the form of Buddhist Art,
Meditation and Prayers) and served as an invisible and inseparable
bond of unity and harmony in the society. It is impossible to
perfectly identify the time when the first concept of glorification
of the Buddha and the Bodhisatta was initiated in Buddhism. This is
due to the fact that by the time the Canon was put to writing, the
Buddha concept had already undergone significant glorification. So,
what we have today in the Canon is a mixture of old and new
materials.
This book is a humble endeavor to make the new learners understand
the vastness of Philosophical approach of Buddhism. This book is a
simplified version and provides guidance on how to apply the
Buddhist concept of emptiness in modern science. This is the first
episode in this series which basically deals with the emptiness of
matter in perspective of Applied Buddhism. "Applied Buddhism" is
the foundation of our true understanding of all the events
occurring in nature. The term "Applied Buddhism" explains how every
person can relate Buddhist ideas in his or her daily life and in
profession. However, many people even today, are unaware of the
fact that modern science has its long history of origin which can
be traced back far from the Buddhist era.
A collection of Buddhist mystic songs entitled, 'Caryacarya
Viniscaya' or 'Caryagitikosa' is still being considered as the
first literary composition in the Bengali Language. These songs
were accidentally discovered from Nepal by Mr. Haraprasad Sastri
during 1907. After about 56 years following that sensational
discovery of Mr. Haraprasad Sastri, almost in the same accidental
manner, Professor Sasi Bhushan Dasgupta could discover some more
Buddhist mystic songs from Nepal during 1963. In order to
distinguish the newly discovered Carya-songs from their older
counterparts, Professor Sasibhusan Dasgupta had himself given his
collections, the title of 'Nava Cary pada' or 'New Cary pada.'
