The Social Philosophy of Buddhism : The Elements of Ethical Rights and Duties

Abstract

The social philosophy pf Buddhism has been shown that one of the essential parts — perhaps the most essential of the Buddha’s effort through out his missionary life — is to restore, patronize, enhance and develop moral values and mental health. What the Buddha expects man to do, in order to live a successful life is that one should discharge one’s duties according to one’s social status constituted out of social relationships and operated under the moral principles.
