佛教獲全球最佳宗教獎

200名各宗教領袖投票決定 讚揚佛教無戰事 目前無團體代表領獎 因榮譽屬於全人類

【人間社記者滿容日內瓦報導】據日內瓦論壇報報導，國際聯合宗教會票選佛教獲得全球「最佳宗教世界」獎。

總部設在瑞士日內瓦的國際聯合宗教會（ICARUS），基於提高並促進宗教和靈性的融合與交流，今年七月投票決議結果，賦予佛教團體最高榮耀獎，一致表決佛教是「世界上最好的宗教」。

這個獎項是由二百位宗教領袖共同參與國際圓桌會議，投票決定。會中值得一提的是，很多宗教領袖並沒有選擇自己的宗教，而是把自己手中神聖一票投給佛教，雖然佛教徒只占ICARUS會員的極少數，但得票數與呼聲卻最高。

國際聯合宗教會的研究主管伊卡羅斯認為，佛教能贏得世界最好宗教榮耀，是因為在過去歷史中，沒有一場戰爭是以佛教名義而戰，與其他宗教明顯不同。他認為佛教徒真正實踐所宣導的宗教精神，而這也是佛教比其他宗教做得更徹底的地方。

Belfast天主教神父泰德（Ted O'Shaughnessy）表示，他也投佛教一票，他雖崇愛天主教，但內心常深感不安，因為在宣導基督愛的同時，往往在聖經裡發現為上帝而殺害異教徒的經文。

穆斯林的神職人員塔爾阿斌‧魏塞德（Tal Bin Wassad）說： 「雖然我是虔誠的穆斯林，但看到很多個人的忿怒和瞋恨，藉用殺戮方式表達他們對宗教的崇敬，而不是自我調解的途徑。 」

另猶太教拉比羅賓‧山謬‧華聖斯坦（Rabbi Shmuel Wasserstein）說：「我愛猶太教，這是世界上最大的宗教，但自一九九三年以來，我每天都在練習內觀禪修，並將作為修持功課之一。」

「佛教徒備受肯定」，身為巴基斯坦的穆斯林社團，也是國際聯合宗教會投票權的委員之一的魏塞德（Wassad）說：「事實上，我最好朋友當中，有不少人是佛教徒。」

國際聯合宗教會目前尚未找到願意受獎團體，當被問及為什麼佛教界拒絕接受獎項時，緬甸翰達比丘（Bhante Ghurata Hanta）表示：「我們感謝佛教被肯定，但此獎是屬於全人類，因每人皆有佛性。」

委員會之一的葛力奇（Groehlichen）說，他們將會繼續尋找下去，直到找到一個佛教團體願意接受它。當找到時，一定會告訴大家.
