  • Secretary Pompeo On the Centenary of the Founding of the International Labor Organization

    MICHAEL R. POMPEO, SECRETARY OF STATE
    JUNE 21, 2019

    The United States today celebrates the 100th anniversary of the founding of the International Labor Organization (ILO). The dignitaries that convened in Paris in 1919 to end the Great War knew that any lasting peace needed to be rooted in the protection of individual rights, including the rights of workers and employers to associate freely and bargain collectively. The United States proudly hosted the first International Labor Conference in 1919 and the war-time conference that enshrined the ILO’s enduring founding principles and aims in the Declaration of Philadelphia. As strong supporters of the ILO and its mission, we reflect on the important role played by Americans to create and sustain this organization, including David Morse, who served as ILO Director-General for 22 years, and under whose leadership the ILO won the Nobel Peace Prize.

  • 三十年前哈佛大学的佛学盛会

    【佛教是世界上最早的世界宗教，比基督教早上五百年，比伊斯兰教早一千两百年。为什么称为世界宗教呢？因为它虽然属于一个特定的时间及地点，在某一程度上也反映了当时的历史、社会等背景，但是它传教的对象并不限于某一个国家及人民。佛教传遍不同的文化地区，不像一神教那样排斥当地的宗教，却通过跟本地文化的互动，而发展出不同的佛教传统与特色。因此我们在讨论佛教时，通常说南传佛教、藏传佛教、汉传佛教，其中汉传佛教也包括中国、韩国、日本佛教。】

    法鼓山圣严法师，节选自《悼念‧游化》

    在波士顿一下飞机就见到三位迎接我的青年，其中一位是吴玉如小姐，另一位是哈佛大学中国同学会的副会长欧阳正先生，另外一位则使我感到非常惊喜，他竟然是中国文化大学历史系的教授蒋义斌博士，他是一位虔诚的居士，曾在文大哲研所听过我的华严哲学，当时他已经是讲师，所以他说他是我的学生，我说他是我的同事，他是由教育部奉派到哈佛大学神学院研究深造，主修东西方的宗教哲学，为期一年。我说已经好久不见，想不到在美国会面。他却告诉我说，我们去年在台北新店燕子湖召开的东方宗教研讨会上还见过面；又告诉我说，东方宗教研讨会的成员之中，另外一位周伯戡先生也到了美国。
