Even those who reject liberalism philosophically, subscribe to its view of freedom, which is a negative view, common to liberalism, libertarianism, and anarchism. The alternative is recognition of nature, thoroughly, applied fully to human beings. The Buddha set it out as a philosophy, and he lived it. It was a practice.

It brings death back into life. The common view is that death is the opposite of life. Yet death is part of life, from the beginning. We see this in many great writers, Dostoevsky, for example. His characters find human communion in suffering, despite their differences. Contradictions are inherent in life, but we find our way, not a single way. It brings realism back, which is truth.

It has been present in human societies throughout history. It has been banished because of a false view of truth, connected to a false view of freedom. It could be recognized as philosophy. The Buddha taught people simply. There was no dogma. He did not teach them to follow him but to be masters of their own salvation. Unless this view is recognized as Philosophy, as it should be, including truth, it will again become religion, rather than a way of life, an art of living. 606 $aNature$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism 606 $aBuddhist cosmology 606 $aBuddhist philosophy 606 $aBuddhism$xPhilosophy 606 $aBuddhism and philosophy 615 0$aNature$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism. 615 0$aBuddhist cosmology. 615 0$aBuddhist philosophy. 615 0$aBuddhism$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aBuddhism and philosophy. 676 $a181/.043 700 $aBabbitt$b Susan E.$0614994 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 912 $a9910758401003321 996 $aEarly Buddhism as philosophy of existence$93598421 997 $aUNINA LEADER 12094nam 22005773 450 001 9910768495103321 005 20240220084505.0 035 $a(CKB)5580000000694909 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC30752877 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL30752877 035 $a(OCoLC)1423211754 035 $a(Exl-AI)30752877 035 $a(EXLCZ)995580000000694909 100 $a20240220d2023 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aAlgal Systems for Resource Recovery from Waste and Wastewater 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aLondon :$cIWA Publishing,$d2023. 210 4$dİ2023. 215 $a1 online resource (266 pages) 225 1 $aIntegrated Environmental Technology Series 311 08$a9781789063530 311 08$a1789063531 311 08$a9781789063554 311 08$a1789063558 327 $aIntro -- Cover -- Contents -- Preface -- List of Contributors -- Part 1: Process Fundamentals -- Chapter 1 : Algal systems for resource recovery from waste and wastewater -- 1.1 Process Fundamentals -- 1.2 Algal-Based Wastewater Treatment -- 1.3 Valorization of Algal Biomass by Integrating with Different Technologies -- 1.4 Algal Biotechnology -- References -- Chapter 2 : Metabolic modelling of microalgae for wastewater treatment -- 2.1 ?
