Abstract | The eight consciousnesses, which relate from Vijñānavāda perspective, involve the eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, mental consciousness, the manas, and the ālayavijñāna. These components are presented as beginning with the single mind through the increasing complexity of the process of consciousness. Herein, the eight-consciousness concept can increase our understanding of ethical decision making. The first purpose of this research is to empirically investigate whether emptiness (viz. Mādhyamaka) is positively associated with the intuitive judgment that results from eight consciousnesses (viz. Vijñānavāda). The second purpose is to empirically explore whether the intuition is positively associated with the moral intensity of ethical decision-making. The third purpose is to empirically search whether the moral intensity is positively associated with the ethical decision making. A questionnaire-based quantitative approach was used to collect data from an initial 200 participants (spirit mediums). After eliminating 43 incomplete questionnaires, 157 participants successfully entered this initial, robust research. The results show that emptiness is significantly correlated with pure brightness and that pure brightness is, in turn, significantly correlated with intuitive judgment. It is also found that only collective universal intuition has a significantly positive association with the moral intensity of ethical decision-making. Personal experience intuition and collective archetype intuition are not significantly associated with moral intensity. Based on the empirical results, the Amalavijñāna model is proposed to increase our understanding of ethical decision-making. The Amalavijñāna model can distinguish judgment from moral judgment, explain the intuition source, integrate cognitive and emotional influences, interpret the reasons for moral failure and postulate how emotions and cognition work together. Considering that The Amalavijñāna model comprehensively describes decision processes that take place in the mind, it not only provides a guideline for moral judgment but is also helpful in instructing and teaching mindfulness.
意識此一心裡現象,雖可從物理、生理面向來做解釋,但也緊密地關聯到倫理與靈性層次。正因為意識涉及到倫理道德面向,僅以自然科學來研究意識,是無法妥善回答道德對錯、善惡的問題,因為道德的對錯與善惡本身,可能才是真正艱難的問題。 因此,本文大膽地將唯識哲學、容格心理學與倫理決策三者,融合並開展其空間,以此嘗試回答道德判斷的難題。又因為意識乃以道德及宗教的修煉層面做為關注點 (例如止觀、禪定、內觀),唯有神工人員的共同參與,方能提供另類的重整與解讀。 本研究的第一個目的是研究空性是否與直覺判斷有正向關係;第二個目的是探究直覺是否與道德決策中的道德強度有正向關係;第三個目的是探究道德強度是否與道德決策有正向關係。本研究使用問卷的調查方法收集了最初200名靈乩數據,排除43份無效的問卷之後,共收集了157份有效問卷。 結果證明,空性與清明有顯著相關,清明與直覺判斷有顯著相關。同時也發現,只有集體神性直覺與道德決策的道德強度顯著正相關。個人經驗直覺和集體原型直覺與道德強度沒有顯著關聯。基於實證結果,本文提出了Amalavijñāna模型來解構道德決策的過程。Amalavijñāna模型可以說明判斷和道德判斷的不同,解釋直覺的來源,並解釋道德決策失敗的原因,可為道德判斷提供了方向與思考。 |
