| Abstract | The merging of Tiantai and Vinaya ideologies represents a defining characteristic of the Tiantai school during the Song dynasty. When did this merging begin? This study intends to conduct some preliminary investigations on this topic. The paper will divide the subject into three parts: the first analyzes the transmission and lineage of the Ximing Monastery’s 西明寺 Vinaya monks. Although Ximing Monastery represented a vital center for Vinaya study during the medieval period, its monastery’s transmission lineage remains unclear. This study focuses chronologically on sorting out the Vinaya monks stationed at Ximing Monastery. Secondly, this study traces the trajectories of the monks of Ximing Monastery who spent time at Guoqing Monastery 國清寺. By investigating their trajectories, the study forms a clearer picture of the contributions made by Vinaya monks of Ximing Monastery to the Vinaya studies of Zhejiang. Lastly, this study examines the merging of the Tiantai and Vinaya traditions. The study will examine the process of those Vinaya monks of Ximing Monastery who gradually shifted towards the Tiantai teachings. Through the investigation of the above aspects, this study will offer a clearer understanding of the relationship between the Vinaya monks of Ximing Monastery and Mount Tiantai, and thus will advance our knowledge on the integration of the Vinaya of Tiantai teachings in this period. |
