I hope this email finds you well.  I am writing to share with you my new article "The Strategic Context of China's Advance in Latin America: An Update" just published by the French think tank The Asia Centre.  This brief article gives an overview of the expansion of Chinese activities and influence across the region in military, commercial and other areas, with an emphasis on the acceleration of such engagement and PRC assertion of initiative toward the region during the past year, an analysis of declared and implicit PRC strategic objectives, and the principle vehicles that the PRC has used in pursuing them, concluding with a discussion of the strategic implications for the United States.

As always, this article is include here as a PDF format document, and is also available through Asia Centre, which published it:

CFP> Critical Review for Buddhist Studies (CRBS)

by Juhee Jeong

Dear Colleagues,

Geumgang Center for Buddhist Studies (GCBS) is calling for papers related to studies covering Indian, Tibetan and East Asian Buddhism, to be included in the publication Critical Review for Buddhist Studies (CRBS).
This publication has been issued on a semi-annual basis since February 2006. 21 volumes have been published to date by GCBS, which is based at Geumgang University in Korea. (All papers can be downloaded free of charge at http://gcbs.ggu.ac.kr/sub04_1. An English webpage is currently under construction.)
GCBS was selected and financed by the National Research Foundation (NRF) in 2007 as a 10 year project, named the Humanities Korea Project. Our agenda being, “Inspection of the Cultural Processes of Formation, Transformation and Reception with regard to the Buddhist Classical Languages and their Texts.”
Since then, we have released a volume titled, “The Foundation for Yoga Practitioners. Buddhist Yogācārabhūmi Treatise and Its adaptation in India, East Asia, and Tibet”, which was co-published by Harvard University in the Harvard Oriental Series Vol. 75.
CRBS consists of articles that were presented at conferences, guest lectures, workshops, and colloquiums. Almost half of the articles in our journal are written in foreign languages, other than Korean, such as English, Japanese and Chinese.
Consequently, our journal (despite its short history of 11 years) was nominated as a Registered Journals of the Korean Research Foundation in July 2017. Based on this momentum, the editorial board of CRBS is calling for papers that will showcase various researchers’ remarkable academic achievements.
We cordially invite you to submit articles based on the broad field of Buddhist studies, covering Indian, Tibetan and East Asian Buddhism. In particular, textual studies on Buddhism, or a topic that is relevant to the focus area of GCBS, are welcomed. In addition, critical reviews of recent research, as well as books written in English, are welcomed.
We adopt a thorough blind peer-review system to verify submissions, and each submission is examined via the KCI (Korea Citation Index), which is supported by the NRF. Research articles will be selected for publication, from among all eligible submissions, through an impartial blind peer-review conducted by three specialists in the field.
Authors, of the papers that are selected for publication, will receive a modest remuneration.
  1. Submission Guideline: Concerning the style of the manuscripts, please adhere to the Chicago Manual of Style (the 15th and 16th edition). For specific exceptions, or to view a detailed guideline for our journal, please download the submission guideline of CRBS(pdf file) at http://gcbs.ggu.ac.kr/sub04_1/articles/view/tableid/sub04_1/id/744#none
  2. Word count: - Research paper: 5,000 words~10,000 words (bibliography included)/ - Review: more or less 2,000 words
  3. Deadline: Papers, including reviews, will be received throughout the year, but for volume 22 published December 31, 2017, it will be received until October 20 at criticalreviewforbs@gmail.com.
  4. Language: Please note that only papers written in English will be considered for publication.
We welcome your continued intrest, and wait with eager anticipation for submissions from Buddhist scholars around the world. Thank you.

Best wishes,

CFC> Chart of Chinese Buddhist Monastic Positions

by Gregory Adam Scott
Call for Contributions: Chart of Chinese Buddhist Monastic Positions
Dear colleagues,
I've put together an H-Net page as a reference to the 48 standard monastic positions in Chinese Buddhist monasteries. I often run across these positions referenced in primary sources such as gazetteers and stele inscriptions, and wanted a quick reference guide to their meanings. I've adopted Holmes Welch's translations of the position names, but I recognize that these could be improved quite a bit. I welcome suggestions and/or corrections to the data. The page is located here:
https://networks.h-net.org/node/6060/pages/312959/chinese-buddhist-monastic-positions
and I will continue to update and revise it in the future. Please contact me off-list with any suggestions for improving this resource.

Lecture> Numata Chair in Buddhist Studies, University of Calgary

by Wendi Adamek
“The Work of the ‘Feminine’: the Tibetan Buddhist Tradition of Chöd from Machik Labdron to Tsultrim Allione"
By Professor Michelle Sorensen (Western Carolina University)
In this talk, I will discuss my textual and ethnographic research on the transmission of Tibetan Buddhist Chöd from the eleventh through the twenty-first centuries. Chöd is a philosophy and practice developed by the Tibetan Buddhist female adept, Machik Labdrön, in the eleventh century. Chöd is considered to be the first Buddhist tradition developed by a woman in Tibet. Chöd was then transmitted to India and later became a practice integral to the main schools of Tibetan Buddhism. Following an introduction to Machik Labdrön and the foundations of Buddhist Chöd, I will then consider how notions of the “feminine”—both human and supra-human/divine—may have (and may have not) contributed to the historical development and contemporary practice of Chöd in Asian and in Euro-American contexts.
Michelle J. Sorensen, Ph.D., received her BA from the University of Calgary with a double-major in Philosophy and Religious Studies, and was greatly influenced in her intellectual development by Dr. Leslie S. Kawamura. Michelle completed her doctoral degree at Columbia University under the supervision of Dr. Robert A. F. Thurman. Her dissertation entitled “Making the Old New Again and Again: Legitimation and Innovation in the Tibetan Buddhist Chöd Tradition” (2013) offers a revisionary history of the early development of Chöd. In addition to having given numerous presentations at national and international conferences, Michelle has published several articles and book chapters on historical and contemporary Chöd philosophy and practice. She is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy and Religion at Western Carolina University and is currently working on a book project about Machig Labdrön and the development of the Chöd tradition in Tibet.

LECTURE> Dorji Wangchuk: "There is Ultimately Not Even One Truth..." at ICPBS, Oct. 10

by Charles Muller
Posted on behalf of Akira Saito
-----------------------------------------
I am pleased to announce Prof. Dorji Wangchuk's lecture as follows:

Speaker: Prof. Dr. Dorji Wangchuk, Universität Hamburg, presently Guest Professor at the University of Tsukuba.
Topic: There Is Ultimately Not Even One Truth, Let Alone Four! The Concept of One Truth/Reality (ekaṃ satyam: bden pa gcig) in Indo-Tibetan Buddhism
Date: October 10, 2017, Tuesday, from 16:00 to 18:00.
Venue: International College for Postgraduate Buddhist Studies (ICPBS), Lecture Hall, 2F.
Abstract:
Indian Buddhist sources allude to a number of models of truth or reality (satya: bden pa). The Bodhisattvabhūmi-—a huge compilatory work probably from the fourth century that deals with the theories and practices of a bodhisattva—for instance, allows us a rare view into the various models of truth/reality in Buddhism, some well known but some less known. Most popular are the model of the “Four Noble Truths” (or “Truths Accessible to the Noble Ones Only”) and the model of the “Twofold Truth” (or “Two Modes of Reality”). The model of a “One Truth/Reality” (ekaṃ satyam: bden pa gcig), which is also mentioned in the Bodhisattvabhūmi, seems to run like a red thread through a wide range of Buddhist literary sources and doctrinal systems. This paper will take closer look at various Buddhist models and concepts of truth/reality with special emphasis on the concept of “One Truth/Reality” in Indo-Tibetan Buddhism. It will also point out the idea found in the Tathāgatajñānamudrāsamādhisūtra that there is ultimately not even one truth/reality, let alone four.

Re: QUERY> Meat Eating in Monastic Contexts

by Anatoliy Anshin
Dear Justin,
Meat eating by an ill monk can be found in Shobo Genzo Zuimonki, a compilation of precepts attributed to Dogen (1200-1253), the founder of Soto Zen sect in Japan. I thought this episode could be of interest to you, especially if interpreted as an allegory of a psychiatric disease. Following is my translation (Gosoen-no E in the text seems to be a title of a kind of compilation of Zen sayings by Zen masters who lived before Dogen):
One day Dogen said: “Zen master Bussho had a disciple who got ill and wanted to eat meat. Bussho allowed him to do that. One night Bussho went to the Enjudo Hall and saw the ill monk eating meat in the dim light of a lantern. However, [when he looked close at the monk] he saw a devil sitting on the monk’s head and eating that meat. The monk thought that he was putting meat in his mouth, but it was the devil who was actually eating the meat, not the monk himself. Bussho realized that the monk wanted to eat meat because he was dominated by a devil, and he allowed him to do that later on. When I think about this it is necessary to be very careful about the decision to allow or not allow [to eat meat]. There is a mention of meat eating in Gosoen-no E. Whether they allow or not, there is a deep meaning in the decision of ancient [masters].”
(Shobo Genzo Zuimonki, edited by Watsuji Tetsuro, Iwanami Shoten, 1991, pp. 19-20).
All the best,
Anshin
