世界名人谈佛教 (13)
佛教从不强迫他人改变信仰
佛教徒从不强迫任何不情愿改变自己信仰的人接受其思想或信仰,也不企图使用任何压力,任何阿谀奉承,欺诈哄骗的手段来获取自己观点的附庸,佛教布道师们从不在商业中心地以竞争的手段获取归依。——玛拉拉赛克拉
No Forced
conversion
It was never, however, the Buddhist
way to proselytise-in the sense of forcing ideas and beliefs upon
an unwilling audience, much less to exert pressure of any kind,
or any knid of flattery, deceit or cajolery, to win adherence to
one's own point of view. Buddhist missionaries have never competed
for converts in the marketplace. ~Dr.G.P.Malalasekara
