“Emptiness” is an experience that many people have had—mostly stumbled upon unexpectedly. What exactly is emptiness? Can it actually be practiced? The Heart Sutra is the shortest, most condensed teaching on emptiness among all of the Prajanaparamita Sutras, seems to be focused exclusively on emptiness. How can this sutra be used to help you progress in your spiritual practice? Ultimately, the realization of the heart of prajnaparamita is, in and of itself, the Path. In this book, you will read about how to use the Heart Sutra as a compact guide to practice and the Path. Master Nan’s teachings are packed with pith instructions, both the do’s and don’ts, for success in practice. Practical, to the point, and illustrated with thought-provoking anecdotes, his teachings are relevant to practitioners of all proclivities, from beginners to advanced.

內容簡介 Wisdom That Transforms Lives Twenty-five centuries ago, a man who had once lived in royal luxury walked barefoot across the dusty plains of India, sharing insights that would forever change human history. The Buddha—“the Awakened One”—dedicated forty-nine years of his life to illuminating the path beyond suffering for all who would listen. This first volume presents 36 stories from the Buddha’s life and the lives of his disciples, each revealing the Buddha’s remarkable ability to meet people where they were and guide them toward realization. Readers will discover the Buddha’s insights on the importance of kindness, right speech, right actions, and community living that remain profoundly relevant to our lives today. Each story concludes with “Words of Wisdom” that connect ancient guidance to contemporary challenges. Throughout the collection, we see how the Buddha’s gentle yet powerful approach led others to profound insights, inspiring many to become his disciples and

Chinese medicine has a rich history that has only been made more complex by its integration with `Western' biomedicine. Legitimization of Chinese medicine in biomedicine-dominated health systems, such as that in Hong Kong, has posed significant issues. This anthology of articles explores relevant social issues related to various Chinese medicine treatments, including acupuncture and medicinal oils, as well as insight into practitioner licensing and public perception. Each chapter tackles a topic related to the complicated process of legitimizing knowledge and power within a specific social and historical context. Written by professors and researchers with extensive knowledge of Chinese medicine, government regulation, and sociology, this collection provides an overview of the challenges and current social context of Chinese medicine that affect students and practitioners of Chinese medicine, health and para-health biomedical professionals, and patients alike.

Sustaining Landscapes: Governance and Ecology in Chinese Visual Culture, 960–1368 CE examines ecological thought contested amid the rise of the Chinese landscape genre, tracing its intersections with infrastructure governance, natural resource management, and geospatial knowledge. It traces the pre-industrial notion of “sustainability” in policy debates, legal regulations, and arts. Landscape imagery on paintings, maps, as well as mass-produced artifacts such as fans and ceramic pillows documented both appropriate and exploitative use of natural resources, and critiqued on social inequity and political turmoil. This book breaks new ground by bringing together research on visual and material culture with analysis of politics and ecology. Wang argues that the Chinese landscape genre embodied a holistic approach to negotiating debates on human-nature interdependence and people-state relationships. It joins the increasing literature on ecocriticism and offers alternative perspectives to ad

Influenced by his upbringing in post-war Japan, and the ideological, social, economic and artistic transformations of the era, Noda Tetsuya started to build a diary of prints in the 1960s, recording his daily life and mastering the challenge of documenting the reality around him in both true and artistic fashion. Works presented in this publication offer unparalleled insights into the artist’s hand skills and color palette, as well as his intense personal feelings and trademark humility. Few printmakers are quite as exploratory in terms of their technique and so precise in their choice of depicted subjects. Noda Tetsuya’s Diary of Contemporary Japanese Prints represents the long-accumulated knowledge of a well-practiced artform by one of Japan’s bestestablished artists, while also documenting—in true diary fashion—events that have shaped his personal life, while also standing for the collective experience of Noda’s generation and the societal change witnessed over the last several de

A Sketch of Truth Theory The Truth Theory refers to a natural attribute which all things embody during cosmic movement. And which features the inherent quality of the universe, that is, the attraction between Yin and Yun, the negative cosmic gas and the positive cosmic gas. It is the natural and scientific reality of the universe. The appearance of this theory will completely shatter the barriers that have hindered human understanding of life and all things in the universe for thousands of years. It will put an end to the idealism-materialism dichotomous outlook on the world and completely terminate the theism-atheism dualistic religious concept that people have disputed for thousands of years. It will enable humankind on Earth to see the universe in the true, clear-minded and correct manner for the first time. It will enable humankind to explain mysterious cosmic phenomena with our acquired part of scientific knowledge about the universe in a deep and complete manner for the first

Appropriate for use by students at varying levels of competence, Burmese: A Cultural Approach provides a thorough and systematic introduction to the Burmese writing system in Part One and a series of true-to-life conversations in Part Two. Students with some prior knowledge of the spoken language but little familiarity with the Burmese script can use Part One to solidify their grasp of the Burmese sound system as well as its orthography. Intrepid beginners could also start their study of the language by making use of Part One. Doing so would mean making a slower start at formulating phrases as compared to using a romanization system but learners would gain a firmer foundation for the later—and eventually, faster—development of their speaking and reading skills. The conversations in Part Two are extensively annotated in order to illustrate grammatical patterns, characteristic turns of phrase, and typical habits of social interaction. True to an anthropological approach to language le

English Explained explores the areas of English grammar that are most affected by misinformation and confusion and supplies the learner with the knowledge to finally grasp the workings of this multifaceted language. The fifty sections of English Explained cover the misunderstood, the misleading, and anything that appears to break the standard grammar ‘rules’ we are all taught. The book has been written, in the first instance, for teachers and prospective teachers (TESOL/TEFL) whose first language is not English. A key aim of the book, then, is assisting both students and teachers on a practical level by equipping them with the knowledge and the awareness to answer any challenging questions a teacher or an enquiring student may pose over the course of an English class. It will also prove invaluable to students of all disciplines who seek a better grasp and understanding of English grammar—essential for achieving competency in both writing and reading.

Lens on China: Intermediate and Advanced Readings on Film for Learning Chinese is an innovative textbook that uses film to teach Mandarin Chinese. It not only provides students with a non-traditional way to learn Chinese by combining visual and textual materials, but also creates real, sociocultural and linguistic situations where students can use their acquired skills. Each lesson of the textbook focuses on one film in a highly engaging and effective way of learning. Each lesson comes with a comprehensive vocabulary list, detailed grammar explanations, and exercises in various forms. Such a design ensures a balance between basic language training in vocabulary and grammatical structure, and more advanced goals in interactive communication and in-depth reflection. Ten films are chosen to help the student achieve sociocultural knowledge that will deepen their understanding of contemporary China. Half of the films selected are light-hearted works on youth, love, and aspirations, with d

For myself, however, it is the human element, the recollected words, the remembered faces, which give life to the printed record.” James Hayes’s many writings have made a major contribution to knowledge about life in rural Hong Kong. This book presents sixteen of his illuminating and original articles, each of which is rooted in his experiences as a district officer, administering and visiting villages under his care. His interest in the life and lives of the people went far beyond the formal demands of his official work, and Dr Hayes grew to admire and respect the villagers. As a result, his writings are suffused with his affection and esteem. Intended for scholars in the field of New Territories history as well as general readers interested in rural life in the region, A Pattern of Life provides a fascinating, academically important, yet highly readable picture of traditional life in rural South China and reinforces Dr Hayes’s reputation as one of the most important writers on the N

To know where we are going, we must also know where we came from. This book gives an account of Hong Kong’s medical and health development from the Second World War to the present day, investigates how medical and health services grew and adapted as Hong Kong’s political and the socio-economic landscape—and the world beyond it—changed, and continued changing. The author is a clinician-scientist rather than a social scientist, her writing is therefore based on her first-hand knowledge of the changes in the Hong Kong medical and healthcare scene during the period 1942–2015, and the book has also been enriched by her meticulous research via the archives of available government publications, other literature, and media reports. This book is a sequel to A Medical History of Hong Kong: 1842–1941. ~~~~~~~ “This book presents an unbiased and scientific analysis of events which prompted the authorities and the public to consider, evaluate, and ultimately implement policies that resulted in

As such the collection epitomizes the path that transforms passion into perfection and enshrines the drive of the Faculty of Medicine at The Chinese University of Hong Kong to gain and apply knowledge and understanding for the benefit of all.

Even though molecular biology has long been a basic tool in biomedical research, scientists still face the question of why certain molecular biology methods are used for certain experiments.

The principles and applications related to each technique included in the text are all described in full detail.

"Arthur's depth and breadth of knowledge on growing food plants are beyond compare, both theoretically and practically. His love of plants in general, and growing vegetables in particular, is clearly evident in the quality and variety of vegetables he grows in his own garden. He is also an excellent teacher, who gives clear and detailed explanations for everything he demonstrates, both in person and in his inspiring books. Arthur’s hard earned experience is an invaluable source of information and he constantly researches and experiments to enhance understanding of growing food plants.

The book provides guidelines and practical creative exercises which equip creative-major students in early semesters as well as creative practitioners with fundamental knowledge on creation methods. Combination of functionality, simplicity and aesthetics in modern design is considered a fundamental design principle in the Bauhaus School in Germany,and, inspired by the School, the creative handcrafting exercises and the concepts introduced in this book are primarily coherent with this principle. The book draws a direction between two and three dimensional material-based design and modern digital creation process. The first part of the book introduces various creative handcrafting exerciseson proportion, geometry and modularity, among other fundamental design principles. The creative exercises will sensitise students on aesthetical and structural issues, and thus serve as an essential building block for application of the design principles to computer-based creative processes, which ar

Agriculture builds upon the integration of crops and the environment, with which its yield depends strongly on a healthy soil foundation. With that in mind, the knowledge of the soil and fertilizer is crucial to maintaining an environment with optimal nutrients, water and oxygen for crop production. Soil is one of human's precious resources, the protection and nurturing of our soil is thus an integral part of sustainable development. Effective soil management is considered not only a technology, but also an art. In practice, to make use the full potential of the land, the management strategies need to take account of the differences and characteristics of the soil, plant and climate that are unique to each geographical location. Such an approach is increasingly more important nowadays because of the increasing loss of cultivable land and need of high quality agricultural products.

More than any other treasure, Shijing 詩經 contains the historical roots of China, from which much of modern culture grew. From a lovelorn young man to an aging woman spurned by her wedded husband, from an elder statesman admonishing a young sovereign, to foot-soldiers facing the unspeakable fate of sacrificial burial, the love and war in Shijing serves as a key to unlock the cultural roots of Ancient China. The book presents the reader with a fascinating glimpse of the peoples of Ancient China by analyzing many poems in Shijing and discussing aspects of culture and events reflected in the poems from a wide range of disciplines, including archeology, ethnography, history and linguistics. Reading this book will enhance the general reader’s knowledge of Chinese culture as well as familiarity with the language as a “bare-bone”. Minimalist English translation is used which enables readers to get closer to and gain a better sense and flavor of the original text.

Feng Shui practice has become an important reference for the planning and design of buildings, monuments and even entire cities. In fact Feng Shui is an evolved study of the natural and built environment. By utilizing the natural elements and practical environmental changes, we may improve upon our well-being, relationships, prosperity, health and living environment. People in many advanced countries seek to establish a deeper understanding of these relationships between human and natural environment. Architects from around the world also begin to recognize Feng Shui as a broad ecologically and architecturally connected paradigm. To remove the shadow of superstition for Feng Shui practice, it is essential to use a scientific approach in the hope of combining and fusing ancient wisdom with modern knowledge in building science. Scientific Feng Shui has two meanings, namely (1) the verification of Feng Shui principles scientifically and (2) studying Feng Shui logically in a scientific wa

This is a novel, not a text book, although the reader may like to use some of the content of this book for German language teaching or learning. This is a novel that is intended to serve a dual purpose: For reading pleasure and for picking up and/or boosting one’s existing knowledge of German. The book should be read chapter by chapter, starting from Part I all the way to the end of Part II, as the story and the progression of the language instruction and discussion follow a linear thread. As far as the story goes, the reader will find the two main characters, William and Becky from Hong Kong, both college students who have just completed their first year of a degree programme and are now on exchange to University of Freiburg in Germany for a semester – August to December, which eventually turns out to be a bit longer, extending to end of February. This is part of an internationalization programme that they are going through and capitalizing on. On arrival in Germany their first stop

This volume explores the management of conflicts arising from the siting of unwanted projects in the Asia-Pacific, a region inadequately explored by the relevant literature. The work includes studies on a variety of locations, including Hong Kong, Japan, Mainland China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Singapore, and others.

封面故事 AI Agent風起　掀代理浪潮 從AI代理人到代理式AI　企業整備基本條件挑戰可控風險 文◎余采霏 近兩年，全球企業已然感受到生成式AI（GenAI）帶來的影響，在大型語言模型（LLM）的快速演進下，企業得以藉此生成文字、圖像或是影音來加速生產力，甚至更進一步應用在資料的擷取與洞察，以改善企業營運，創新企業價值。 但人工智慧（AI）的進展並不只於此，我們正在從以知識為基礎（knowledge-based）的GenAI，進入到可以在數位世界中執行複雜工作流程的「行動」階段 。自去（2024）年下半年以來，AI代理人（AI Agent）以及代理式AI（Agentic AI）已經開始嶄露頭角，成為科技熱門話題。調研機構Gartner甚至將其列為2025十大戰略技術趨勢的首位，並預測到了2028年，有33%的企業軟體應用程式將包含代理式AI，且至少有15%的日常工作將透過自主的代理式AI來做出決策 。 什麼是AI代理人？代理式AI又如何實現複雜的任務？本期我們邀請業界專家深度探索AI代理人與生成式AI、機器人流程自動化（RPA）差異，以及在現有的解決方案中如何運用AI Agent打造任務自動化並創造新的生產力浪潮，同時也分享Agentic AI入門指南。 專題報導 深化AI智慧轉型　製造業加速虛實整合 2025智慧製造落地攻略論壇特別報導 文◎洪羿漣 隨著全球製造業加速邁向自動化與數位轉型，生成式人工智慧(GAI)正成為推動智慧工廠革新的核心技術。透過GAI優化製造流程與決策，加上數位孿生(Digital Twin)技術即時模擬工廠運作、預測未來狀態，製造業的營運模式將迎來顛覆性變革。在這場技術演進中，智慧工廠不再只是單純的自動化系統，而是具備數據驅動決策、預測性 維護及自主學習能力的高度整合生產環境。本次由新電子、新通訊、網管人雜誌共同主辦的《2025智慧製造落地攻略論壇》，聚焦現代化新 興技術如何驅動生產效率提升、優化產品品質管 理並加速產業創新。同時，論壇也強調企業須確保營運韌性，以因應市場快速變化，進而建立競爭優勢。 產業趨勢 企業導入電子簽章　必知風險與防範對策 破解實務應用疑慮　提升安全/可信度 文◎歐陽惠怡 自台灣通過電子簽章法之後，近期對於適法性的詢問度已稍趨緩，隨之升溫的是在使用電子簽章過程中，所可能會面臨的法律風險與疑

這是一個AI的時代，也是一個人文復興的時代。 Imagination is more important than knowledge. ──愛因斯坦 寫作一事為何與AI有關？ 因為在未來，沒有一件事不是在寫作！ 隨著科技的發展進化，專屬於人類的文字、情感、思考力等「技藝」，是否會有被AI超越的一天？ 答案既是「YES」也是「NO」。 作者楊憲宏提供了一個哲學性的視野：現代人對於AI時代迎面襲來的焦慮感，更應該回到語言文化的歷史連結去重新認識與認知。 本書由此引領讀者深入探索寫作的藝術與心靈的修煉。在人工智慧時代，寫作不僅是技藝，更可視為一種人生哲學，需識得文字的魂魄與靈現，才有辦法深刻思考寫作的本質與意義。 全書共分五講，從寫作態度、技巧到心靈修煉，逐步引導讀者理解寫作是如何透過不斷的自我探索、博雅修養與創新，成為記錄時代與人性的重要工具。有AI伴飛，雖然能提升知識、事半功倍，但唯有親自動手寫作，才能開啟無邊的想像力。勇於面對寫作過程中的模糊與自由無邊際，才能在故事的拼貼與細節掌控中有所突破。 這不僅是一本寫給寫作者的書，更是獻給所有渴望透過文字連結世界、尋找自我的人。因此，本書談論的不只是寫作技巧的廣泛問題，更牽涉到一場想像力激盪的人腦修煉，以及文史學脈絡的宏大辯證。 切記，在這資訊洪流與科技變革的時代，勿忘寫作的初心： 以筆為劍，以心為燈，探尋文字背後那隱隱閃耀的智慧與真理。 ★睿智推薦 李永得　前文化部長、中央社董事長 李遠哲　前中央研究院院長 杜奕瑾　台灣人工智慧實驗室創辦人 郝廣才　格林文化發行人 張瑞昌　財團法人中央廣播電臺總臺長 黃安捷　智邦科技資深顧問 楊斯棓醫師　《要有一個人》作者 鄭俊德　閱讀人社群主編 ★專文推薦 王志宏　《經典雜誌》總編輯 姚仁祿　慈濟人文志業中心合心精進長
