The Hidden "God": Towards a Christian Theology of Buddhism (English Edition) Kindle Edition
English Edition by Peter Baekelmans (著) Format: Kindle Edition


5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars 4 ratings


Winner of the Frederick J. Streng Book of the Year Award 2022 from the Academic Society of Buddhist-Christian Studies in North-America

"Theology" means "discourse about god." 

Christian theology is a reflection on the Christian faith in which God takes a central place. 

Therefore, the Christian theology of other religions seeks to understand 

if and how "God" as Christians call their experience of Him may be present 

in the thought, devotion, and ritual of those other religions. 

Christian theology of Buddhism is then 

a Christian reflection on the Buddhist faith in "god" or "gods." 

Now, Buddhist teaching contains many seeming contradictions (as does Christian teaching). Accepting these, and looking for clues to understand 

how they came about and how they might be reconciled, is not only an intellectual challenge but also a religious duty.

The Hidden "God" feels like a detective story, 

taking the reader along on an exacting investigation of the manifold themes, concepts, and persons of the different Buddhist faith traditions 

in order to discern whether they can be related to the Christian understanding of who God is. The result, which is both complex and simple, will enable readers to take steps toward uniting both religions in the mystery that God or the Dharma is.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

"This book is courageous and necessary: courageous because it breaks a taboo of placing interreligious dialogue on a theological level; necessary because it brings to light a sincere comparative study of the relationship between faith and practice—which is common ground for all the great spiritual traditions. This is the more necessary in the case of Buddhism, which, in the West, is increasingly secularized and confined to the field of psychophysical well-being disciplines."—GUGLIELMO DORYU CAPPELLI, Zen Anshin temple, Rome

"The 'god' question is almost absent from Buddhist scriptures and teachings, yet everywhere present in the searching eyes of a Christian. Peter Baekelmans is well equipped to tackle this elusive question owing to his many years in Japan and long acquaintance with several branches and schools of Buddhism. On the Christian side, his approach is both academic and theological: a scholar and a believer, which allows him to consider the 'god' question in Buddhism from different and sometimes surprising angles without losing sight of the global picture."—FR JACQUES SCHEUER, author of Wisdom and Compassion: The Two Wings of Buddhism

"In The Hidden 'God,' Peter Baekelmans develops a Christian theology of Buddhism in the sense of a Christian reflection on the Buddhist faith in 'god' (or 'gods'). As he is a renowned theologian and scholar of Buddhism, whom I consider the Christian expert on esoteric Buddhism—both theoretically and practically—the reading of this challenging work will be deeply illuminating."—MARTIN REPP, author of The One God and the Other Gods: A Historical and Systematic Introduction to Ecumenical Theologies of Religion

"Peter Baekelmans' The Hidden 'God'takes us along with the author on a journey to the discovery of Buddhism and its many facets. His path-breaking manner of comparing Buddhism to his native Christianity with a view to enhancing the understanding of both is immensely respectful. He has undertaken an arduous task. Many have tried it, and many have failed. Remarkably, this book is simple in its completeness, pointing out what has been right before our eyes all along even while opening up a limitless horizon."—ALICIA GUINOT, Europe Books

Spinoza: Freedom's Messiah Hardcover – 11 June 2024
by Ian Buruma (Author)
4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars 79 ratings
Part of: Jewish Lives (68 books)

Ian Buruma explores the life and death of Baruch Spinoza, the Enlightenment thinker whose belief in freedom of thought and speech resonates in our own time

Baruch (Benedictus) Spinoza (1632–1677) was a radical free thinker who led a life guided by strong moral principles despite his disbelief in an all-seeing God. Seen by many―Christians as well as Jews―as Satan’s disciple during his lifetime, Spinoza has been regarded as a secular saint since his death. Many contradictory beliefs have been attached to his name: rationalism or metaphysics, atheism or pantheism, liberalism or despotism, Jewishness or anti-Semitism. However, there is no question that he viewed freedom of thought and speech as essential to an open and free society.

In this insightful account, the award-winning author Ian Buruma stresses the importance of the time and place that shaped Spinoza, beginning with the Sephardim of Amsterdam and followed by the politics of the Dutch Republic. Though Spinoza rejected the basic assumptions of his family’s faith, and was consequently expelled from his Sephardic community, Buruma argues that Spinoza did indeed lead a Jewish life: a modern Jewish life. To Heine, Hess, Marx, Freud, and no doubt many others today, Spinoza exemplified how to be Jewish without believing in Judaism. His defense of universal freedom is as important for our own time as it was in his.

Product description

Review
"A brief but forceful entry in Yale's sprawling Jewish Lives series. . . . Mr. Buruma succeeds admirably in capturing the man as well as the essentials of his thought. Rather than unhappy and isolated, as he's sometimes been depicted, the stoic Spinoza portrayed here practically glows with serenity and grace."--Daniel Akst, Wall Street Journal

"Undoubtedly the most readable introduction to Spinoza's life now available."--Joe Moshenska, The Guardian

"In his new book, Spinoza: Freedom's Messiah, . . . Buruma observes that 'intellectual freedom has once again become an important issue, even in countries, such as the United States, that pride themselves on being uniquely free.'"--Adam Kirsch, New Yorker

"A fresh biography of one of the leading lights of the Enlightenment, whose views on rational thinking and secularization still resonate. . . . An elegant, relevant biography of a vital thinker."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Buruma does a magnificent job of demonstrating the enigmatic nature of Spinoza's thought and life. Given that mystery breeds possibility, one leaves the biography feeling like Spinoza can indeed speak in many registers to many different people."--Marc Katz, Jewish Book Council

"Ian Buruma tells the story of Spinoza's star-crossed Jewish life engagingly, drawing on his own Dutch background to give it added relief. His jargon-free critique of Spinoza's philosophy, while placing it in his time, also asks trenchantly what it might say about our time."--Gary Schwartz, author of Rembrandt in a Red Beret: The Vanishings and Reappearances of a Self-Portrait

"Ian Buruma has written a wonderfully lively and instructive introduction to the great philosopher who led a 'modern Jewish life, ' and whose struggles for freedom of thought provide a model for us today."--David A. Bell, Princeton University

"In this short and splendid book, Ian Buruma incarnates Spinoza as an exceptional human being, but human all the same. His immensely vivid account breathes new life into Spinoza, freeing him from mummified versions of this great man."--Avishai Margalit, author of On Betrayal

Ian Buruma’s 2024 “Spinoza: Freedom’s Messiah,” a significant addition to Jewish studies, is published by Yale University Press. This book is a comprehensive introduction to the life of the short-lived renowned Jewish philosopher Baruch Spinoza (1632-1677), who died at the early age of 45. Only two of his books were published during his lifetime: Theological-Political Treatise in 1670 and Ethics in 1677. Buruma's unique approach to Spinoza's life and ideas will captivate readers.
Buruma is the author of twenty-two other books and a Professor of Human Rights and Journalism at Bard College. His book is a valuable addition to the Jewish Lives series, a prizewinning collection of interpretive biographies that delve into the various aspects of Jewish identity. In partnership with the Leon D. Black Foundation, Yale University Press has published over sixty books, including this volume in Jewish Lives. With over thirty more books forthcoming, the series enriches our understanding of Jewish history and culture.
Buruma’s book is 216 pages long, with 12 chapters comprising 174 pages, 13 pages of notes, a page of acknowledgments, and an index of 10 pages.
The book is not a traditional biography but a collection of speculations about Spinoza’s life. It does not delve into Spinoza’s ideas and philosophy. Instead, it describes the many debates surrounding Spinoza's life and work. Buruma emphasizes that virtually everything said to be known about Spinoza is pure speculation, and scholars have different ideas about them. He praises “the excellent biography by Steven Nadler, whose book is about as exhaustive as one can be about a short life full of unknowns.”
Buruma added, “Spinoza’s complicated ideas are (also) open to many interpretations.” Scholars differ on how to interpret them. As a result, we have no definitive picture of what Spinoza was teaching other than that he was a rationalist who stressed using one’s intelligence. He writes, “The Israeli scholar Yirmiyahu Yovel has portrayed Spinoza as a philosopher whose thinking was profoundly influenced by his Marrano family background. He believes that Spinoza’s use of language and his ‘mastery of equivocation’ were rooted in the habits of his ancestors who had to hide their faith behind a veil of Christian conversion in the face of the Iberian Inquisition.” (I agree and will give my interpretation below.)
Buruma tells readers that since the fourteenth century, Jews in Spain were forced to convert to avoid persecution. Many converted while continuing to be faithful Jews secretly. Those who publicly converted but were discovered to be secretly practicing Judaism were killed. The remaining Jews were expelled in 1492. Many, including Spinoza’s family, fled to Amsterdam, where Jews were tolerated as long as they did not “clash with (Amsterdam’s) Calvinism on such matters as the immortality of the soul, belief in the afterlife, God the creator or the divine origin of the Holy Scriptures – all dogmas that Spinoza would later repudiate.” The state felt it must protect its citizens from false religions. Strict theologians were in favor of banning Jews and Catholics from the country. However, the majority agreed to tolerate them as long as they caused no clash. Noting the very sensitive situation, the Jewish leaders, including the rabbis, were cautious not to speak about subjects that might endanger their lives.
Jews and Catholics were not the only groups facing the danger of causing the Amsterdam government to stop tolerating them. English Quakers escaped persecution and fled to Holland in large numbers. However, unlike the Jews, after being in Holland for some time because of the possibility of offending the government with their religious beliefs, they left Holland for America.
Spinoza was placed in herem, meaning ostracized, on July 27, 1656. As with virtually everything regarding Spinoza’s life and thoughts, what prompted the herem is unclear. This is especially difficult to understand since we know that Spinoza was cautious throughout his life not to endanger his own life and the lives of fellow Jews by revealing what he believed.
Indeed, I am convinced that this is why his writings are unclear and subject to widely different interpretations. In this respect, he was very similar to Maimonides (1138-1204), who also hid his true rational ideas. He did so in his own way. He mixed them with the ideas of non-educated Jews. He did this because he was very compassionate and did not want to hurt fellow Jews in any way.
Buruma writes that Spinoza “was cautious about how much he was prepared (to reveal of his thinking). (This) makes his enthusiasm to publish (his book) Ethics (in 1677, long after the herem, the year he died) a bit puzzling. He must have known that this book” would enflame the passions of the Amsterdam government.
In my view, it is possible that in 1677, when he was deathly ill and died, he was not thinking very well.
Buruma ends his fascinating book, from which readers will learn much, by writing that Spinoza “showed the way all human beings can think freely and discover truths that apply to everyone. For that, we all owe him a debt, not as a ‘good Jew,’ or a secular saint, but as a great and humane man.”
While Buruma does not explain Spinoza’s ideas, I would like to do so.
First, we should realize that a policy of toleration is intolerable. Imagine a husband and wife lying in bed together. He taps his wife’s shoulder, and when he gets her attention, he says, “Whatever anyone says, I want you to know I tolerate you.” I think such an attitude is grounds for a divorce. I also think we should recognize that Jews in Amsterdam were very fearful, as were the Quakers, that the toleration policy could easily slide into a situation resulting in their death. So, they were very careful about what they said. This is why Spinoza hid his true opinions.
Second, it is reasonable to assume that Spinoza knew Maimonides’ philosophy. He most likely learned about Maimonides during his years of study of Judaism. Because of his strong interest in philosophy, it is almost certain that he read his books either in his youth or later. It is also likely that he found Maimonides’ rationalism closely akin to his own, if not identical.
Third, true Spinoza criticized some biblical laws and practices and even called some superstition and pagan. So did Maimonides. Maimonides stressed that the Torah needed to be presented to the Israelites in a way they could accept. He said it is impossible to change a person and certainly not a nation immediately. This was why the Torah had to allow slavery, sacrifices, an eye for an eye, and gave many hints that the laws needed to be changed. This is why the Torah stresses the goal of the change, “You should love the stranger as yourself,” which means to treat others as you want to be treated yourself.
This law about strangers was repeated in the Torah and thereby emphasized thirty-six times. If I were a mystic, which I am not, I would point out that the Hebrew word for “life” is made up of two Hebrew letters, the letters chet and yud. The Hebrew alphabet was used to indicate numbers. The two letters number eight and ten. The statement about strangers being said thirty-six times is twice eighteen. Thus, if I were a mystic, I would have said the Torah emphasizes the rule about the proper treatment of strangers twice “life” to teach that this law is so significant that it impacts life in this world and the world to come. Although I am not a mystic, I agree, and so does the New Testament, that “Love your neighbor as yourself” and “Love the stranger as yourself” are fundamental principles of religion.
Fourth, since, as Buruma and others pointed out, virtually all “facts” about Spinoza’s life are speculations, and Spinosa clearly never converted to Christianity, it is possible that he observed Jewish practices even after the herem.
Fifth, we should not dismiss the idea that Spinoza followed the teachings of Maimonides. For example, there is Spinoza’s unclear famous statement that God is seen in nature. Based on Exodus 33:18-23, Maimonides taught us that nothing is known about God. All that we can know is what has been created. Although not full knowledge, we get some clues about God by studying the laws of nature and learning the sciences. (We can think about God being all-powerful, all-knowing, and the like even though we do not know because the ideas are not harmful, but we should remember that we do not know.) Thus, I am convinced Spinoza stated Maimonides’ teaching in his own cryptic way.
Sixth, while I suggest that Spinoza accepted the views of Maimonides or most of them, and while I think Spinoza was brilliant, I do not believe he was as bright as Maimonides. While Maimonides was very practical, Spinoza was not, and while Maimonides devoted his life to helping fellow Jews, Spinoza secluded himself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reason v. superstitionReviewed in the United States on 11 March 2024
Verified Purchase
This is a delightful read on top of Steven Nadler's brilliant works on Spinoza. Buruma brings an added twist by being from the same Nederlandish environs in which Spinoza was born. The portrait of Spinoza here is of course based on rather scant information about his personal life. But, the few data that exist support the idea of someone whose life was lived in accordance with his writings. Buruma does not just paint a hero icon, however. He details the flaws or inconsistencies in Spinoza's works, such as S.'s belief that an orderly state should include recognized religion. He does not mention or address the disconnection between S.'s dismissal of free will and yet inducement to people to live their lives differently by using reason rather than unbridled emotion or religious rituals. Doesn't it take will to enact change in one's life? And if S. argues to persuade people, he must think he is talking to free agents.

The physical properties of the book are also wonderful - fine paper, deckled edges and sharp black font, tight binding. I didn't see a single typo - an unusual even these days.

A great read.

The book nicely describes Spinoza’s life and experiences from what seems to be somewhat limited historical documentation. Limited speculation but also limited richness of details. Nicely accessible length but also could have delved deeper into key views. I didn’t not care for the author’s attempts to find common connections to the present day and extend that to political commentary. It would have had more significance to understand how Spinoza’s views informed the American and French revolutions and other 18th and 19th century political movements.

A New Zealand hero brought out of obscurity in this fascinating 445 page biography by author Christine Cole Catley.Beatrice Hill Tinsley showed astronomers new ways of thinking and taught teachers new ways of teaching. A lover of nature and a conservationist who idealised New Zealand, she was also a musician, a feminist, a battler for zero growth population growth and a champion of the oppressed.Her life is a classic study in the interaction of nature and nurture, genetics and environment. It is also an inspiring and unforgettable picture of a girl determined to be a scientist who grows up in provincial New Zealand and wins through to world renown.

An extremely well-written biography of the New Zealand astronomer Beatrice Tinsley. Notable mostly for its sympathetic treatment of the subject, especially as Tinsley was in many ways held back in her pursuit of science by sexism, especially in how supportive she was expected to be as wife and mother while getting very little support in return. Thankfully for science, she got herself out of the backblocks of 1960s/70s Texas and off to Yale, where she immediately made an impact.

This is such an easy book to read - the writing is polished and friendly, the subject exceptionally entertaining - a really fascinating character. I was absolute engrossed. There is, however, one glaring gap. Nowhere in the book is there an exploration of Tinsley's research - not on even the barest level. It's made clear that she's a huge innovator in studying the evolution of galaxies, but not only am I left with little to no understanding of the particulars, I am left with the suspicion that Cole Catley knows nothing of them either.

I do love a biography and so perhaps I am biased. I also very much enjoyed the subject - a brilliant female scientist, who, bizarrely, I had never heard of.
Beatrice Tinsley (nee Hill) was an astronomer at the forefront of research into the universe, and how galaxies form and evolve. Her brilliance now can be easily measured in how prolific a writer she was, publishing 11 scientific papers in 1978, for example. She is an easy person to admire, being extraordinarily driven by her passion. It makes for a compelling story - you know she's going to get there, somehow, after growing up in provincial New Zealand. But how she ends up a professor of astronomy, at the forefront of galactic modelling in Yale, in the 1970s, a time when women were still struggling to be taken seriously, is a compelling tale.
What I enjoyed about her story is how incredibly productive she was. The parts in the early 1960s where she is trying to bring up two children, as well as working as an academic, are astounding, considering that at that time both she and her husband expected her to do all of the domestic chores (presumably in accordance with the social mores of the day). She would squeeze value out of every moment, working in the mornings and the evenings.

I won't spoil the story, but of course, it is a fact written on the back of the book that Beatrice Tinsley died very young, of melanoma, and this is surely at least partly why she is now remembered, because her brilliance is undimmed. "Age shall not weary them", as Binyon said. In her case, she went at the peak of her powers, a beloved professor whose commitment to science brought many graduate students along with her. The book is full of stories of how she would introduce students to people who could help them, and how her brilliant (though sometimes exposing) critiques would improve others' work. There's surely a big pinch of the obsessive compulsive in Beatrice, but despite her quirks and the fact she sometimes came across as insensitive in the interests of science, she was also a deeply caring person who loved her children, music, and above all, the science of astronomy.

A powerful book about a woman who should have accomplished more. It's easy to speculate about Nobel prizes, but I can't help thinking she would have got there if she hadn't been struck down in her prime. The last line of her obituary states:

For her the pain of having to depart from the world at the height of her career was eased just a little by the realisation that she was doing so in the full glow of attention and recognition, rather than as a forgotten relic of a past era.

I won't lie - this biography made me shed a tear or two about a woman who died more than forty years ago.

A truly in-depth account of an all too short life. (Scarily in-depth! Such a huge amount of research obviously went into this book. I couldn't help wondering what Beatrice would have thought though of us poring over the intimate details of her life.) The scientific world lost a very bright star (pun intended) when Beatrice died. And to die from skin cancer; what a horribly mundane and tragic way for such an extraordinary life to have been cut short. I didn't know much at all about Beatrice before reading this book so it was very educational. Her accomplishments deserve to be more well-known and celebrated in New Zealand. A great book; a long and at times challenging read but fascinating nonetheless.

I can't believe more New Zealanders don't know about this genius astronomer who hailed from our shores. An interesting study of a woman's career that was initially stymied by her being a woman, but clearly she made a huge contribution to astronomy and cosmology.

일본사 연구총서 6권. 일본 여성사는 제국시대를 외면하지 않는다. 남성들이 일으킨 세계 대전을 모두 남성 탓으로 돌릴 수도 있겠지만 제국에는 침략 전쟁을 ‘총구의 뒤'에서 뒷받침한 여성들도 있었기 때문이다. 일본 여성 해방 운동은 이에 대한 통렬한 반성을 전제로 삼고 있다.

P. 27 대략적으로 말하자면, 여성사 주인공의 공식적인 호칭은 근대 일본에서는 자칭·타칭 `부인'에서 `여성'으로 변경되는 추이를 밟아왔습니다. `부인'이라는 말은 현재 보수적인 이미지를 띠게 되었습니다. 하지만 본래 근대화 과정에서는 여자가 남자의 장난감 정도로 간주되었던 종래의 통념에 대해, 그녀들도 인간적인 존엄을 가진 존재라는 인식... 더보기
P. 60 직업인 여성의 노동에 대한 관심이 전례없이 중요하게 다루어지게 되었습니다. 나아가 그 노동에 관한 새로운 분야가 개척되려는 듯합니다. 여성의 프로페셔널, 즉 전문직이나 관리직이 초점의 하나로 등장하게 되었습니다. `법사회학'을 따라서인지, `법여성학'이라는 분야도 제창되고 있습니다. 아무래도 어둡고 은밀한 영역에 있던 이혼이 백일... 더보기
P. 112 그러한 문제의식을 최초로 가장 명료하게 내걸었던 것은 아마도 가노 미키요 씨 등이 참여한 `여자들의 현재를 묻는 모임'이었습니다. 『총후사 노트』라는 표제를 가진 이 모임 기관지의 창간호 권두에는 `간행에 즈음하여'라는 글이 게재되었는데, 여기에서 아래와 같이 모임의 목적의식을 단적으로 드러냈습니다. '어머니들은 분명 전쟁의 피해... 더보기
P. 270 그것은 장애인 자신의 달성 목표의 변화와 연동되는 사실입니다. 그 목표는 처음에는 `방치' 혹은 `은폐'에서 보다 나은 `개호'로였을 겁니다. 그러나 `개호'는 점차 `관리'로 의식되는 단계에 접어듭니다. `개호'의 대가로 일어나기 쉬운 프라이버시의 결여를 중대하게 느끼지 않을 수 없기 때문입니다. 그리고 다음의 단계에 눈뜨기 시작합니다. `자신이 자신으로 존재할 수 있는 자기실현'이 바로 그것입니다. 그 결과로서 `장애자'이라는 용어에 저항감이 생겨, 적절한 용어의 모색이 이루어지게 되었던 것입니다. 접기

"국가를 보는 눈은 지사나 성인의 그것이 아니라, 여자들의 눈이면 좋겠습니다."

● "남자 연구자니까 더더욱 여성사에 관심을 가져야죠. ... 여성사의 시점을 도입하는 것은 그것만으로도 이제까지의 역사를 사실상 남성사로서 상대화하는 것이 됩니다."
● 일본 여성사는 제국시대를 외면하지 않는다. 남성들이 일으킨 세계 대전을 모두 남성 탓으로 돌릴 수도 있겠지만 제국에는 침략 전쟁을 ‘총구의 뒤'에서 뒷받침한 여성들도 있었기 때문이다. 일본 여성 해방 운동은 이에 대한 통렬한 반성을 전제로 삼고 있다.
● 진보를 멀리서 찾는 사람들에게 저자는 간단히 답한다. "부인론을 가지고 각 사상의 진정성을 측정하는 리트머스 시험지로 삼고 싶다는 마음도 있었습니다."

에도 말기와 메이지유신 전환기를 주로 공부하는 박훈 교수는 도쿠가와 시대를 다룬 연구서가 매우 적다는 문제의식을 가지고 있었다. 그는 주변의 연구자들을 모으고 때를 기다리다가 플라톤 아카데미와 함께 연구서를 출간할 기회를 마련했다. 한일관계가 나빠질수록 서로를 알아야 미래를 기약할 수 있다는 생각으로 그간 외면되었던 일본 근세와 근대의 주요 연구를 소개하고자 한다. 빈서재 출판사는 이에 호응하여 연구총서를 준비했다. 접기
