宗教療癒=Religious Healing; 自我敘述=Self-Narrative; 生命敘事=Life narrative; 生命意義=Meaning of Life
摘要
本研究旨在探討佛教觀點下的自我抉擇與生命意義，以及宗教療癒在個體生命中的角色。通過參與式觀察法，強調個人經驗和見解的分析，採用自我敘述、自我反思和自我抉擇的生命敘事方法，進行以自我為例的研究進路。筆者試圖通過這樣的自我探索之人生旅途，尋找建構自我理解與生命自我救濟的答案。在此人生自我敘事的過程中，目的是能否引起共鳴與反響。 本研究試圖理解每個個體在面臨生死問題時的精神超越或徹底解決之道。通過自我敘事和參與式觀察法，探索「智慧的宗教」或「哲學的宗教」，以期發現生命的終極真實，並據此確立終極目標，深入佛法「義趣正覺、了悟實相」。通過宗教詮釋與信仰轉念，提升自我為純善純淨的價值主體，發現疾病乃是主體獲得重生的契機，在不痊癒也不發作的平衡狀態中，親近自性，融入中國傳統文人的「真知」體會，重構主體，完成自我的淨化與療癒。 本文旨在理解和體驗「敬、靜、淨、盡」的整體生命創造轉化歷程，實踐「和氣天真，以心念佛、敦倫盡份，求生淨土、圓成佛道」的目標。 This study aims to explore self-determination and the meaning of life from a Buddhist perspective, as well as the role of religious healing in the individual's life. Utilizing participatory observation, the research emphasizes the analysis of personal experiences and insights through a life narrative approach involving self-narration, self-reflection, and self-determination. By embarking on this journey of self-exploration, the author seeks to find answers for constructing self-understanding and self-salvation in life. The process of life narration aims to evoke resonance and response from others. This study attempts to understand the spiritual transcendence of death or the ultimate resolution of life and death issues for each individual. Employing self-narration and participatory observation, the study explores "religion of wisdom" or "philosophical religion" in the pursuit of discovering the ultimate reality of life and establishing ultimate goals based on this understanding. The research delves into Buddhist principles such as "meaningful right awakening" and "realizing the true nature." Through religious interpretation and the transformation of faith, the study aims to elevate the self into a pure and virtuous value entity, recognizing disease as an opportunity for the subject to achieve rebirth. In a state of balance where the disease neither heals nor worsens, the subject can approach their true nature and integrate the "true knowledge" experience of traditional Chinese literati, thereby reconstructing the self and completing purification and healing. This thesis seeks to understand and experience the holistic life transformation process characterized by "respect, tranquility, purity, and completion." It aims to practice the goals of "harmonious sincerity, mindfulness of Buddha, fulfilling moral duties, seeking rebirth in the Pure Land, and achieving Buddhahood."
