CIKU held Academic Talk Program “Confucius and Sakyamuni Buddha”
 
 

On June 6, 2009, Confucius Institute at Kathmandu University held Academic Talk Program “Confucius and Sakyamuni Buddha”. Professor Sun Yong from the Academy of Social Science in Tibetan, China was invited to present a lecture on “Confucius and Sakyamuni Buddha”. Professors from Tribhuvan University, Faculties and students from Confucius Institute, School of Management, School of Art, School of Education and Buddhist Studies at Kathmandu University presented in the program.
Prof. Sun Yong gave a clear picture about the two ancient culture and education giants, Confucius born in China and Sakyamuni Buddha born in Nepal, share much in common although they are respectively the founder of Confucianism and Buddhism. They both focus on the objective of truth, kindness and beauty and take it as their own responsibility to realize a harmonious world. They also resembled greatly in some thoughts and behavior such as “ teachers should set a good example for students”, “treating students equally”, “build oneself good virtue for both family and society” etc.
The vivid lecture arouse the attendants interests and finally leads to a warmly discussion about Confucius and Sakyamuni Buddha as well as today’s application of the giants’ thoughts and behaviors. This talk program shortened the distance between Nepal and Chinese culture, and helped the Faculties and students understand more about Confucius and Chinese culture.
