AbstractWhen Buddhism was first introduced into China, there was a great conflict with Chinese traditional values. One prominent conflict lies in the idea of filial piety. In order to make Buddhism establish and develop in China, the earlier great missionaries and Chinese Buddhist monks strained their efforts in searching the conjoint point between Buddhism and Confucianism regarding filial piety. During that period, various sutras related to filial piety were translated and some of them are said to be fabricated by Chinese monks. One of the spurious sutras on filial piety that became very popular even today was the Fo Shuo Fu Mu En Zhong Nan Bao Jing (佛說父母恩重難報經), which is a good combination between Confucian and Buddhist idea of filiality. With reflection to the historical dispute between the Buddhism and Confucianism on filial piety, this thesis is meant to analyze the spurious sutra and the concept of filial piety expressed in it and to see how filial piety is practiced today in a Buddhist organization like FGS Buddhist Order. Totally, the thesis covers four chapters; the first chapter is introduction part including study motivation, purpose, problem statement and methodology and so on. Chapter two focuses on textual analysis, comparative studies between Buddhism and Confucianism on filialilty, as well as the development, historical meaning and influences of this sutra. Chapter three explores the application of filial piety to Fo Guang Shan (佛光山) Buddhist Order. An introduction to Ven. Master Hsing Yun, as a founder of FGS, and the relationship between him and his mother help to understand the idea of filial piety in FGS Buddhist Order. Chapter four is the summary of findings and conclusion.
