| - L’Évangile du Bouddha est un livre de Paul Carus paru en 1894. Il prend pour modèle le Nouveau Testament et relate l’histoire du Bouddha par le biais de paraboles. Il fut un instrument important dans l’introduction du bouddhisme en Occident et est utilisé comme outil d’enseignement par certaines sectes asiatiques. Carus pensait que le monde moderne avait besoin d’une nouvelle religion de la science. Inspiré par ses rencontres et ses conversations lors du Parlement des religions en 1893, il jugea que le bouddhisme était la foi la plus proche de son idéal et écrivit L’Évangile du Bouddha pour populariser cette religion en Occident. L’ouvrage est composé à partir des traductions anglaises de textes bouddhiques, avec des révisions et des reformulations significatives. Le choix des textes met en avant un bouddhisme philosophique, sans éléments surnaturels. Bien que critiquée par les spécialistes contemporains, cette interprétation s’est avérée populaire en Occident. Le livre, réédité à de nombreuses reprises, fut un succès populaire. Il influença aussi le développement du néo-bouddhisme en Extrême-Orient, particulièrement dans sa traduction japonaise par Daisetz Teitaro Suzuki. (fr)

By the 1890s, inspired by the meetings and conversations at the Parliament of the World's Religions in 1893, he had decided that Buddhism was the closest faith to his ideal and created The Gospel of Buddha to popularize the religion in the West. The work was assembled from existing English translations of Buddhists texts, with significant amendments and reworkings. His selection of texts favoured Buddhism as a philosophy without any supernatural elements. While criticized by contemporary scholars, this interpretation proved popular in the West, leading to a number of reprintings. It also influenced the development of Modern Buddhism in the 18th century in East Asia, notably in a Japanese translation of the book by D. T. Suzuki. (en)
