Abstract
This chapter examines the ways in which Buddhists cope with violence. It reviews the doctrinal and academic methods to analyze Buddhist coping techniques concerning violence, particularly the practice of meditation. To date, most studies on Buddhist coping techniques do not use comparative models or operationalize the coping techniques in the field. As such, these studies offer incomplete data on the effectiveness of Buddhist coping techniques. In order to test meditation techniques and other Buddhist coping practices in the field, the chapter draws upon a 2012 study of Buddhists and Muslims coping with violence in a conflict zone. The operationalization of Buddhist coping techniques in a comparative environment provides alternative results. It furthermore provides possible ways to make Buddhist practices more effective in coping with violence.
