The fundamental purpose of Master Taixu's advocacy of "Life Buddhism" is to improve society and human beings with the spirit of Mahayana Buddhism of "sacrificing oneself for others" and "forgiving benevolence and benefiting all beings", and to establish a perfect personality and monk personality. He said: "The main tide of last-day Buddhism in France must be in close human life, and the number of men and women who guide good faith will increase upwards, that is, people will become Buddhists." Therefore, he put forward slogans such as "man becomes Buddha" and "man becomes Buddha when he is round", encouraging monks and believers to start from real life and their own present situation. In other words, becoming a Buddha is in people's real life and in people's daily moral behavior. Otherwise, the personality is still lacking, and the status of the Bodhisattva will be nowhere to be placed, let alone the success of the Buddha. Master Taixu has a self-report, which fully explains this feature of life Buddhism. He said: "Buddha is the only one, and personality is the only one." It is a real reality "(that is, the real realism of becoming a Buddha). The book Realism is a theoretical argument made by the master to reveal that Buddhism is a religion facing reality, and it is also the theoretical basis for his construction of life Buddhism.

Master Taixu published many books in his life. Here is only a brief introduction to one aspect. The master has a wide range of knowledge and profound thoughts. He combined internal learning with foreign learning, old learning with new learning, and middle knowledge with law. He put forward many profound views on Buddhism and world studies. Master's writings and other works have been compiled into Master Taixu's encyclopedia by disciple Yin Shun, which is very convenient to learn.
