華嚴杜順故事所述支配角色解析:韋伯社會學的視角=An Analysis of the Role of Domination Played by the Venerable Dushun in His Stories: A View from the Perspective of Weberian Sociology
The Venerable Dushun, the First Patriarch in the Huayan zong (Flower Garland School) with the title of “Sacred Heart”, was renowned for his unsurpassed achievements in Buddhist history. However the monographs on Dushun‟s life have never been more. Based upon some Buddhist terms, such as eightfold path, six perfections, six supernormal powers and three fields of merit, the author tries to suggest a new interpretation of the „stories‟ of Dushun in sociology using Weberian concept of three pure types of legitimate domination. It is hoped thatthis study will broaden the researchers‟ horizons in a degree.
