Abstract

This paper introduces Mahāyāna Buddhist medicine into the contemporary international relations (IR) literature. In this paper, we will elucidate the perception towards subjectivity and relationality based upon the non-binary relationality of Mahāyāna Buddhist medicine, and strive to provide a refreshing understanding of the world. In order to achieve this goal, we start this article by focussing upon the way in which the essentialised subjectivity became the norm of contemporary IR even in non-Western regions. Second, we will provide a general introduction to Mahāyāna Buddhism. Here, we will explain the fluid subjectivity of this particular philosophical tradition, particularly its assumptions of subjectivity, relationality and temporality. Third, we will shift our focus to a practical application of this line of thought, Mahāyāna Buddhist medicine. We argue that Mahāyāna Buddhist medicine is extremely suggestive to contemporary colonial/postcolonial relations in the sense that it provides a practical way to cure those who are suffering from fear and anxiety generated by the assumptions of autonomy and independence. Last, we will return to the discourses of IR, in particular a recent discussion on temporality, relationality and ethics, to consider the possible contributions of Mahāyāna Buddhist medicine to IR.

政治治疗与大乘佛教医学:对当代国际关系的批判性介入

摘要

本文将大乘佛教医学引入当代国际关系文学中。在本文中,我们将基于大乘佛教佛教的非二元关系来阐明对主观性和关系性的认识,并努力使人们对世界有新的认识。为了实现这一目标,我们将从关注于本质的主观性成为当代IR(甚至在非西方地区)的规范的方式开始本文。第二,我们将对摩Mah那那佛教进行全面介绍。在这里,我们将解释这种特殊的哲学传统的流动主观性,特别是对其主观性,关系性和时间性的假设。第三,我们将把重点转移到这种思路的实际应用上,大乘佛教医学。我们认为,摩Mah摩耶那佛教医学对当代殖民/后殖民关系极具启发性,因为它提供了一种切实可行的方法来治疗那些因自主和独立的假设而产生的恐惧和焦虑之苦的人。最后,我们将返回IR的论述,特别是关于时间性,关系性和伦理学的最新讨论,以考虑大乘佛教对IR的可能贡献。
