This research focusing specifically on the Pa-Auk tradition of Buddhist meditation, seeks to examine the aspect of modern change of Burmese culture.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n This research shows how Buddhist clergy in contemporary Japan are engaged in suicide prevention in ways that contrast with conventional mental health approaches. The collaborations between caregivers and recipients compel to both contemplate life, death, and welfare from new perspectives, which constitutes a new type of Buddhist healing.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nResearch Departments\u30fbPosition<\/h2>\n
