	Anarcho-pacifism
		Anarcho-pacifism is a form of anarchism emphasizing the complete rejection of violence in any form for any purpose (esp. political).
		It is most commonly associated with religious anarchism, such as Christian anarchism[?] or Buddhist anarchism[?].
		However, the punk rock band Crass polemicised a variant of anarcho-pacifism whilst at the same time explicitly rejecting all religions, especially the symbols of 'establishment' Christian mythology.

	Statelessness
		The early Buddhist monk had a solution to a society controlled by a government that confuses and conflates issues of property and rights of possession and literally runs off the stolen possessions of its subjects.
		The rulers and kings that came into contact with communities of Buddhist monks were often shocked to find that this way of life dismantled their power through not granting it as having substantial importance.
		Though Buddhist tradition was destined to diverge from this source, these ancient teachings provide an example of a 2,500-year-old system that shares commonalities with modern anarchist theory.

	Dimensions of Chinese Anarchism - an interview with Arif Dirlik \| libcom.org
		I came to study Chinese anarchism by tracing the origins of this notion of social revolution, and I believe that Chinese anarchism was a radical, new idea.
		When I began working on Chinese anarchism I sensed that there was a renewal of interest in anarchism, in a very broad sense, and I hoped to write this book as a contribution to that.
		Also, to the extent that anarchism is laden with such valuable insights, obviously it is important to revive it and bring it to the forefront of discussions.

	Social Anarchism or Lifestyle Anarchism Part 6
		From the standpoint of primitivist lifestyle anarchism, human beings are at their best when they adapt to nonhuman nature rather than intervene in it, or when, disencumbered of reason, technology, civilization, and even speech, they live in placid 'harmony' with existing reality, perhaps endowed with 'natural rights,' in a visceral and essentially mindless 'ecstatic' condition.
		Where social anarchism called upon people to rise in revolution and seek the reconstruction of society, the irate petty bourgeois who populate the subcultural world of lifestyle anarchism call for episodic rebellion and the satisfaction of their 'desiring machines,' to use the phraseology of Deleuze and Guattari.
		The steady retreat from the historic commitment of classical anarchism to social struggle (without which self-realization and the fulfillment of desire in all its dimensions, not merely the instinctive, cannot be achieved) is inevitably accompanied by a disastrous mystification of experience and reality.

		Anarchism is the name of a political philosophy or a group of doctrines and attitudes that are centered on rejection of government, or the state, as harmful and unnecessary and support its elimination.
		Individualist anarchism is an anarchist philosophical tradition that has a strong emphasis on equality of liberty and individual sovereignty, drawing much from the tradition of classical liberalism.
		While big 'A' Anarchism referred to ideological Anarchists, small 'a' anarchism was applied to their methodological counterparts; those who viewed anarchism as "a way of acting, or a historical tendency against illegitimate authority." As an anti-ideological position, small 'a' anarchism shares some similarities with post-left anarchy.

	Buddhist Anarchism (Gary Snyder)
		In the Buddhist view, that which obstructs the effortless manifestation of this is Ignorance, which projects into fear and needless craving.
		Historically, Buddhist philosophers have failed to analyze out the degree to which ignorance and suffering are caused or encouraged by social factors, considering fear-and-desire to be given facts of the human condition.
		Avatamsaka (Kegon) Buddhist philosophy sees the world as a vast interrelated network in which all objects and creatures are necessary and illuminated.

	Dimensions of Chinese Anarchism: An Interview with Arif Dirlik (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Unlike Peter Zarrow in Anarchism and Chinese Political Culture, you de-emphasize the role of Daoism and Buddhism in the constitution of Chinese anarchism.
		There may be Taoist elements in it, there may be Buddhist elements in it, there may even – through Tolstoy – be Christian elements in it: nevertheless, my concern was with the new ideas that anarchism brought into the Chinese intellectual scene, chief among them this idea of a social revolution.
		Feminism and anarchism have had a difficult and complicated relationship in Europe and America, yet feminism was apparently integral to Chinese anarchism and not even a contentious issue within the anarchist movement.

	Buddhism in the West
		He said: 'Buddhist or not Buddhist, I have examined every one of the great religious systems of the world, and in none of them have I found anything to surpass, in beauty and comprehensiveness, the Noble Eightfold Path of the Buddha.
		It should be emphasized that true Buddhist renunciation is not a cowardly escape from life, but the giving up of all selfish desires and interests to face life boldly in a higher and nobler way in order to be able to serve humankind.
		Though Buddhist countries might have gone to war for political or other reasons, there is not a single example of persecution or the shedding of blood in order to convert people to Buddhism, or to propagate it, during its long history of two thousand five hundred years.

	Maverick Philosopher - Buddhist Studies
		The Buddhist philosopher, however, could point out that there is no difference in reality between the unconnected sum of two boards and a nail, and the same three things connected.
		The commonsensical suggestion that a chariot is a whole of connected parts, and not a mere sum of parts, was rejected on the ground that this connectedness cannot be found by analysis, as indeed it cannot.
		In Buddhist terms, we could say that idolatry is the treating of something that is anatta, devoid of self-nature, as if it were atta, possessive of self-nature.

	Engaged Buddhism: Evading the Transformation of Reality
		The Buddhist Peace Fellowship’s stated purpose is “to bring a Buddhist perspective to contemporary peace, environmental, and social action movements” and “to raise peace, environmental, feminist, and social justice concerns among Western Buddhists.” In the most narrow sense, I suppose the BPF has indeed been “raising” such “concerns” over the last two decades.
		The fact that engaged Buddhists have not bothered to investigate truly radical movements is the main reason that such movements have remained equally indifferent to any advice from engaged Buddhism (assuming they are even aware of its existence, which in most cases they are not).
		Korean Buddhist leaders are praised for advising “rich people and employers to share more with the poor and with labor, as well as asking the government to improve the social welfare system and to protect human rights” (p.

		Nihilistic and sceptical anarchism (do they have to be separated?) vs. anarchisms guided by basic and agreed upon values for their members.
		Planet-wide anarchism of one particular form vs. competitive or multi-cultural forms of anarchism that compete not only with other forms of anarchism on one planet but also with various forms of voluntary statism, as panarchism does.

		Likewise, anarchism doesn;t require or ask anyone to adhere to any particular belief, merely to decide for yourself, albeit many anarchists like to tell you what is and isn't proper anarchist thought.
		Buddhism is ethically based on the non-aggression principle, but its reason have to do with altruism, the equality of all beings as suffering and impermanent, and the non-self nature of all beings.
		He is telling people to trust themselves in their journey, just as anarchism tells us to govern ourselves instead of handing this power over to an authority.

		To say that Buddhists that accept a tyrannical leader are deviod of compassion is just plain wrong, in my opinion.
		Additionally, anarchism can be practiced as libertarian socialism on a small scale within a capitalist market economy.
		When I've explored these ideas with other Buddhist friends their knowledge of issues and facts in these areas are severely lacking.

	Strong Lessons for Engaged Buddhists
		In the middle of the Vietnam war Thich Nhat Hanh and a few other Buddhist monks, nuns and laypeople broke with the 2500-year tradition of Buddhist apoliticism and founded the Tiep Hien Order in an effort to relate Buddhist ethical and meditational practice to contemporary social issues.
		A few of the engaged Buddhists may realize that it is necessary to get beyond the present system; but failing to grasp its entrenched, self-perpetuating nature, they imagine gently and gradually modifying it from within, and then run into continual contradictions.
		If the engaged Buddhists have failed to explicitly oppose the socioeconomic system and have limited themselves to trying to alleviate a few of its more appalling effects, this is for two reasons.

	Buddhist Christians?
		The entire Buddhist worldview is based on a philosophical standpoint in which the central thought is the principle of interdependence, how all things and events come into being purely as a result of interaction between causes and conditions.
		According to evangelical logic, a Christian Buddhist would be closer to salvation than a pure Buddhist, because the latter does not have a conscious, personal relationship to the Risen Christ.
		Tarjei, there is no such thing as evangelical logic, as opposed to Buddhist logic, anthroposophical logic, etc. There's simply logic, and we all use it every day, even those who deny it exists or is applicable to religious truth claims.

		Knabb is especially insightful in his shrewd analysis of Rexroth's revolutionary theory and practice, his Buddhist anarchism, his communitarian personalism, his affinities with Martin Buber.
		I regret that Gutierrez skirts the poems' Buddhist and other Asian dimensions, although his aesthetic and psychological insights are impressive and valid as far as they go.
		The excuse that the Buddhist implications are "not essential to the autonomy of the poems" (141) is like saying that Confucianism is "not essential to the autonomy" of Pound's Cantos, or Christian theology is "not essential to the autonomy" of Dante's Divine Comedy or of Eliot's Four Quartets.
