Summary/Abstract: Samadhi is one of the most important ways in Buddhist practice. Why must we prac-tice samadhi? What is the effect of practicing samadhi? Has it limitations? Ven. Yin-shun, who was called the spiritual mentor of the Humanistic Buddhism, had written an important article named To Practice samadhi: To Practice One’s Mind and Idealist Mystery. According to Ven. Yinshun, someone will easily lead to deviating from the Buddhism if he practices meditation without prajnā. I think this is the problem about the virtue reality in Humanistic Buddhism.
