Buddhism and its adaptation to social networks and the Web 2.0 era: A socio-ethical perspective

Abstract

The article analyzes the applicability of Buddhism in the Web 2.0 era - the era of social networks, interaction and sharing, and emphasizes the role of Buddhist ethics as a guide for individual and community behavior in cyberspace. Through the analysis of theoretical aspects such as semantics, virtual identity, information ethics crisis, combined with meditation methods, the article proposes practical applications of Buddhist teachings to create a mindful and humane cyber culture. In particular, the theory of the five kings and ministers of Cao Dong Zen is used as an analytical model to explain the parallelism between reality and illusion, between the worldly and the worldly in the context of socialization.
