This study examines the content and practice of a middle-path civil servant from the Buddhist point of view. First, the author describes the meanings of the middle path and a middle-path civil servant as well as the relationship between the“heart”value and ethics which a civil servant should uphold. Second, the author discusses the content and practice of an“informed,”“affectionate”and“sentient”civil servant who realizes the middle-path values. The main conclusions are: an“informed”civil servant should have a pure and beautiful mind; an“affectionate”civil servant should actively follow the Buddhist teachings; finally, a“sentient”civil servant should firmly take the middle path. A civil servant with these three valuable virtues will become a true man with great characteristics dedicated to serving not just human beings but also all sentient beings. |
