Humanistični budizem navadno uresničuje budistične ideje v vsakdanjem življenju z namenom spodbujanja družbene harmonije in osebnega zadovoljstva. S poudarkom na treh osrednjih vidikih – individualnem, univerzalnem in transcendentalnem – ter šestih značilnostih humanističnega budizma sta avtorja članka raziskovala prepričanja in prakse te filozofske usmeritve na Tajskem, podporo, ki je je v lokalnem okolju deležna, in ovire, s katerimi se v njem srečuje. Kvantitativne podatke sta v študiji zbirala s kombiniranim pristopom, in sicer s pomočjo vprašalnikov, razdeljenih med 400 anketirancev na dveh lokacijah na Tajskem ‒ v dobrodelni fundaciji Tzu Chi v Bangkoku in v organizaciji za mahajanski budizem Fo Guang Shan ‒, s tridesetimi anketiranci ‒ med katerimi so bili verski voditelji, člani skupnosti, strokovnjaki za budizem, ki preučujejo njegovo humanistično idejno linijo, in drugi ‒ pa sta opravila še poglobljene intervjuje. Rezultati so pokazali, da so prepričanja in prakse humanističnega budizma skladne z vsemi tremi razsežnostmi te tradicije. Trije poglavitni izzivi uresničevanja humanističnega budizma v vsakdanjem življenju na Tajskem so tako: (1) reševanje notranjih konfliktov, (2) spodbujanje sočutnosti v družbenih odnosih in (3) obvladovanje bivanjskih vprašanj. Avtorja na podlagi študije priporočata večstranski pristop k razvojnim politikam, ki spodbuja trajnostne prakse humanističnega budizma na Tajskem, cilja katerih sta krepitev vloge budističnih organizacij za dobrobit skupnosti in spodbujanje sodelovanja med budističnimi, vladnimi in civilnodružbenimi ustanovami.
