| Abstract | 四、五十年代的台灣佛教，與初期大專青年學佛的推展，有著密切的關係。現今台灣佛教第三代領導人，大部分都出自於當時的大專佛學社團。而首位真知灼見、推動開啟成立大専佛學社團的創始者，是周宣德居士。他為接引青年，不僅首創空中弘法，也將自己的六十壽辰賀禮匯集印贈佛書，轉贈大專院校學生閱讀。同時設置各項「獎學金」，吸引一批大專生投入研究佛學，進而推動全台第一個佛學社團——「台大晨曦學社」的成立。接著輔導其他大專院校成立佛學社團，創辦針對大專生的一本月刊《慧炬月刊》、舉辦「慧炬粥會」增進「佛學社團」的凝聚力與交流的平臺等等。周宣德居士積極的推動接引大專生研究佛學，也逐漸提高台灣佛教的知識水準，對台灣佛教的發展有廣泛貢獻與影響，故被稱為「大專佛學社團之父」。
本文研究目的，旨在探討促使周宣德居士推動「佛教青年化」的背景和源由。探討他採取哪些做法，竟能讓大專青年對佛教，從過往的悲觀、落伍、迷信、無知的刻板印象，轉為積極、先進、睿智的良好形象，並加入正法的實踐與弘傳行列。他培養了許多優秀青年投入僧伽或護法居士的行列，為佛教帶來一股新的生機與力量。
In the 1950s to the 1960s, Buddhism in Taiwan was very closely related to efforts encouraging college youths to study Buddhism. The third generation leaders of Buddhism in Taiwan at present mostly come from Buddhism societies and clubs organized in colleges at that time. Zhou Xuan-de was the pioneer and founder of these college Buddhist societies and clubs. To attract youths, Zhou first used the radio to spread the messages and teachings of Buddhism. He used monetary gifts received on his 60th birthday to print books on Buddhism and gave them to college and university students for further study and reading. At the same time, Zhou established various scholarships which attracted the first batch of university and college students to study the religion. This act then propelled the formation of NTU Sunrise, Taiwan’s first Buddhist association. Zhou then provided counseling to other colleges and universities to establish their own Buddhist societies and clubs, and created a monthly publication titled Huiju Yuekan (Torch of Wisdom monthly) as well as Huiju Zhouhui (Torch of Wisdom porridge meeting) platform to enhance the cohesiveness and exchange of Buddhist societies. Zhou’s active encouragements exposed many college and university students to the study of Buddhism, helped to improve knowledge levels of Buddhism, and resulted in wide ranging impacts to the development of the religion in Taiwan. Many people therefore gave him the title of Father of Buddhist Societies in Colleges and Universities.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the background and reason for Zhou Xuan-de to encourage youth participation in Buddhism. The study then reviewed Zhou’s actions that transformed the stereotypical image of Buddhism as a pessimistic, backward, superstitious and ignorant belief system into an active and advanced study that promoted wisdom, and the measures that Zhou had adopted to convinced many youths to start practicing Buddhism and spread its teachings. Zhou helped to see many youths of excellent standing joining Buddhism as its ordained monastics (the Sangha) or lay Buddhists, which reinvigorated the religion and gave it new life. |
