| 抄録 | In Master Shengyen’s teaching system, he teaches about the mind numerously. When Master Shengyen teaches Buddhism, he utilizes Master Tiantai Zhiyi’s material variously. For example, Master Shengyen teaches the novices of meditators in modern language and methods. The material is very similar to Master Zhiyi’s Xiaozhiguan 小止觀.
In Master Sheng Yen Teaches the Pure Land Method, Master Shengyen thinks that mindfulness of Buddha is one kind of meditation. This thesis will focus on the opinions of mind in Master Shengyen’s works, and analyze these opinions, then Master Tiantai Zhiyi’s opinion about mindfulness of Buddha will be discussed, later to ponder Master Shengyen’s opinion about mindfulness of Buddha, finally compare Master Shengyen’s opinion about mindfulness of Buddha to Master Tiantai Zhiyi’s.
The mind has many names, such as eight consciousnesses, Tathāgatagarbha, Buddha nature, dharmatā, dharmadhātu, bhūtatathatā, Dharmakāya, Emptiness, Reality, Middle Way, etc. These names follow correspondent with their content. First, the opinion of mind and the eight consciousnesses will be discussed. In Master Shengyen’s book, Exploring the Domain of Consciousness: A Study of Xuanzang’s Bashi guiju song《探索識界》, he argues that the sentient beings’ transmigration or reincarnation are caused by the sixth consciousness. The crucial point is in the eighth consciousness which provides the opportunity to the sentient beings from the ordinary one into the enlightened one. Second, the relationship between mind and Emptiness, or Middle Way. In Master Shengyen’s book, Master Sheng Yen Teaches Huatoa《聖嚴法師教話頭禪》, he reasons that if one understands the Dependent Origination, one understands the Dharma; one realizes the Dharma, one realizes Emptiness; one perceives Emptiness, one perceives Buddha. He points out how to exercise Emptiness or Middle Way in the real world. Third, in The Treasure in Our Own Backyard, Master Shengyen claims that the thought of Tathāgatagarbha means that the sentient beings are the Buddha in the womb, have not been born yet. This can encourage sentient beings to practice achieving Buddhahood. The sentient beings are called Tathāgatagarbha or Buddha-nature before becoming a Buddha. He persuades that the studies of Tathāgatagarbha will be popular in the future. It is because the thoughts of Tathāgatagarbha can satisfy the people who have the need of philosophical thinking, or faith. In addition, it can connect to the Dependent Origination, Reality, etc. According to Master Shengyen’s opinion and experience, the thought of Tathāgatagarbha is most useful and popular. In the mind of sentient beings, there are the august of Buddha. It is called Tathāgatagarbha. When one meditates on Buddha, the Buddha’s names, Buddha’s virtues, or Buddha’s images, one is in the Pure Land. Therefore, it can be trusted when one is mindfulness Buddha’s name ten times can be reborn into Pure Land.2
Furthermore, Master Tiantai Zhiyi’s opinion about mindfulness of Buddha will be discussed. In Mohe Zhiguan Vol. 2, Master Tiantai Zhiyi deliberates four kinds of samādhi, which are constantly sitting, constantly walking, part walking part sitting, and neither walking nor sitting. In constantly sitting samādhi, he discourses that one can sit and be mindfulness one Buddha’s name or ten direction’s Buddha’s names. Consistent with Master Zhiyi’s other works or his memoirs, this one Buddha’s name is Amitābha Buddha. In constantly walking samādhi (the pratyutpannasamādhi; in Chinese is pronounced banzhou sanmei 般舟三昧), the practitioner anticipates seeing the present Buddhas in ten directions of the worlds standing in front of him. Consequently, constantly walking samādhi is also called meditation of the Buddha's appearance 佛立三昧. During the 90 days, Master Zhiyi gives instructions that the body should constantly walk without rest; the mouth should stay shut, except for chanting Amitābha Buddha’s name without rest; and the mind should reme |
