Abstract

Dharma Mudra includes: (1) All phenomena are impermanent; (2) all Dharma are not-self, and (3) the eternity is Nirvana. The purpose of social entrepreneurs is to transform the society, not to make profits. Their spirit is to solve social issues in the way of commercial power and business operation. Venerable Master Hsing Yun spared no effort in promoting Buddhism throughout his life and is a successful social entrepreneur in our views. He believes that the “Buddhism of freeing from desire" may be practiced by a small number of practitioners and monks. On the other hand, the majority of sentient beings must implement the “Buddhism of reducing desire". In an interview, Venerable Master Hsing Yun said that Fo Guang Shan has hundreds of Buddhist temple and dojos all over the world, and they were not built by one person, they were all made by everyone. If you want to be successful yourself, you must first let others succeed, and you will succeed as living among the sentient beings.
