抄録 | It is claimed that one of the innovative contributions of Nāgārjuna in his Madhyamaka thought was establishing the equivalence of emptiness (P: suññatā, Skt: śūnyatā; kōng 空, kōngxìng 空性) and dependent origination (P: paṭiccasamuppāda, Skt: pratītyasamutpāda; Ch: yīnyüán 因緣, yüánqĭ 緣起). This study examines early and mainstream Buddhist textual sources to discover what relationship between emptiness and dependent origination was established before Nāgārjuna.
In Part 1, we broadly outline the near paradigmatic modern Buddhist studies discourse on the teachings of emptiness. We then focus on the role of Nāgārjuna's Madhyamaka within this discourse. Lastly, this study rounds off with a literature review of studies on emptiness and dependent origination before Nāgārjuna.
Part 2 covers the early teachings found in the Pāli Nikāyas and (Chinese translations of) the Āgamas. It finds that the term emptiness was sometimes used independently to refer to the process of dependent arising as saṃsāric dissatisfaction and cause, and also as dependent cessation into nirvāṇa. Emptiness as the “profound” also described these two complementary processes as a whole.
Part 3 continues with the broad range of mainstream sectarian sūtra and śāstra literature. Here, the previous relationships are made more firm and explicit. There is greater association with the two doctrines as rejection of extreme views based on a “self”. The two are also brought within the Abhidharma methodology of analysis into conventionalor ultimate truths, and classification as conditioned or unconditioned phenomena.
Part 4 concludes, that while already nascent in the early literature, the relation or equation of emptiness with dependent origination, along with related terms, was quite well developed in pre-Nāgārjunian sectarian literature, and is strongest in the Sarvāstivādin literature. We recommend that aspects of the academic discourse on emptiness should be rectified as a result of these findings. |
