Revoicing the Buddha: Ancient Wisdom in a New Vernacular by Mu Soeng (2025)
In this book, Mu Soeng, scholar and practitioner, seeks to rediscover the voice of the Buddha for the twenty-first century through an ongoing dialogue between ancient wisdom and contemporary realities: (1) an exploration of how the Buddha’s teachings on greed, hatred, and delusion remain as relevant today as they were in ancient India, amidst conditions that may amplify these tendencies a thousandfold; (2) a re-imagining of how the Buddha might speak in today’s world, offering fresh possibilities for engaging with his teachings; and (3) an approach that moves beyond ideological frameworks, inviting readers to listen anew and cultivate a direct, personal connection with the Buddha’s wisdom in the context of modern life.
