 | | Fo Guang Shan, or Mountain of Buddha's Light, is a Chinese school of Humanist Buddhism that encourages its followers "to incorporate into our day-to-day lives the teachings of Buddha about generosity, compassion and happiness, not only for our own benefit but for the benefit of all those around us," explains Cheuh. |
 | | Fo Guang Shan is not the only school of Buddhism in Brazil, but it has the best chance of growing and taking root in Brazil, according to Frank Usarski, a religious studies professor at Sao Paulo's Catholic University. |
