AbstractWhat is the connection between the language of sustainability and the implementation of sustainable practices? The rhetoric of sustainability and environmental concern are both rich in metaphors and vision, but does this richness translate into significant sustainability practices? Does rhetoric hold the key to the success of sustainability? This paper analyzes the concept and teaching of ‘spiritual environmentalism’ (xinling huanbao心靈環保) proposed by the late Chan monk Sheng Yen and argues that the term is part of a rhetorical strategy aimed at providing a framework for integrating humanistic Buddhist practice, environmentalism, and Sheng Yen’s particular emphasis on Chan practice. In order to extend the implications of this rhetorical aspect of the term, I will suggest how ‘spiritual environmentalism’ and the ‘fourfold environmentalism’ (sizhong huanbao 四種環保) can be situated within the context of the field of Buddhist environmentalism. I will also provide a comparison between Sheng Yen’s use of language and the way Norwegian philosopher Arne Naess develops his ‘ecophilosophy’ (commonly known as deep ecology). This comparison will allow us to clarify the way in which Sheng Yen’s discourse of environmental concern contributes to and can engage with contemporary environmental philosophy.

在語言的永續性以及永續修行的實踐之間,有什麼關聯性呢? 談起永續性與環保問題這種辭令,雖然都富含隱喻,也有相當的遠見,但是這就代表了有意義的永續實踐了嗎? 這種辭令是否真的握有永續成功的關鍵? 本論文將分析近代聖嚴法師所提出的「心靈環保」觀念與教育,並說明這個術語事實上是修辭策略的一部分,主要是為了整合人間佛教實踐方法、環保,以及聖嚴法師特別著重的禪修,所提供的一個框架。而為了延伸它修辭面的意涵,我會提到如何將心靈環保及四種環保置於佛教環保的背景及領域中。我也會將聖嚴法師對語言的使用,以及挪威哲學家阿倫.奈斯(Arne Naess) 如何發展出他的生態哲學(一般稱做深層生態學)兩者做出比較。在這個比較之下,相信我們會更清楚聖嚴法師對環境問題論述的貢獻,並且銜接上當代的環境哲學。
