AbstractLarung Gar is often hailed by scholars and practitioners alike as a last bastion of authentic Buddhist practice by ethnic Tibetans within the PRC. And yet, Larung is visited every year by tens of thousands of Han pilgrims and houses hundreds of Han monastics who have taken vows in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. The author draws on a variety of oral and written sources to show that the Han inundation of Larung was not a byproduct of happenstance, but was actively facilitated by the Larung leadership, especially Khenpo Sodargye (མཁན་པོ་བསོད་དར་རྒྱས་ 索达吉堪布), through the targeted recruitment of Han practitioners. A comparative analysis of Tibetan- and Chinese-language materials shows that the neo-scientific and therapeutic teachings used to recruit Han practitioners superficially resemble similar “Buddhist modernist” discourses in the west and Tibet, but that their content is decidedly more soteriological than this moniker suggests. The article considers whether the encounter between Han practitioners and Tibetan Buddhism might eventually represent a nascent form of inter-ethnic Chinese Buddhist modernism.

佛學者和佛教徒都同意喇榮五明佛學院是中國境內真正藏傳佛教修行的最後堡壘。然而,每年都有數以萬計的漢族朝聖者到訪喇榮,其中包含了數百名在藏傳佛教傳承中出家發願的漢族僧侶。作者利用各種口頭和書面資料表明漢族在喇榮的存在並非偶然的現象,而是喇榮的佛教領袖—尤其是索達吉堪布—主動招募漢族的佛教徒的結果。通過對藏文和語文材料的比較分析,本文展示用於招募漢族佛教徒的“新科學”和“新治療”的教法,雖然表面上類似於在西方和西藏的“佛教現代主義”的話語,但其內容在“現代主義”之上救世神學的色彩更濃。本文討論了漢族佛教徒與藏傳佛教之間的相遇是否最終可能代表了一種新興的、跨民族“中國佛教現代主義”。
