三論宗における諍論と論義の特色：「無諍」との関係から=The Characteristics of Argumentation 諍論 and Doctrinal Debate 論義 in the Japanese Sanron School 三論宗: With Special Reference to Jízang’s Doctrine of “No Dispute 無諍”
It has been pointed out that in Jízang’s doctrine, all doctrines and disputes can be accepted in the name of the Four Siddhanta 四悉檀, and he emphasizes such a state of affairs as “No Dispute 無諍.” Jízang’s doctrine of “No dispute” also seems to have been recognized in the Argumentation 諍論 and Doctrinal Debate 論義 of the Japanese Sanron School.
In this paper, I point out the existence of descriptions applying Jízang’s doctrine of “No dispute” in active Argumentation and Doctrinal Debate in Japanese Sanron. Even in these contexts, there seems to have been an awareness that the ultimate truth could not be expressed by words and that doctrines expressed by words could only play the role of a ‘finger pointing to the moon,’ which was a characteristic of this tradition in Sanron.
