『念仏鏡』の「念仏対六度門」について：『浄土慈悲集』の諸行観と関連して=On the “nianfo dui liudu-men 念仏対六度門” of the Nianfo jing 念仏鏡: In Relation to the Various Views in the Jingtu cibei ji 浄土慈悲集
In the Nianfo jing 念仏鏡 （jointly compiled by Daojing 道鏡 and Shandao 善道）, a collection of writings on the Pure Land from the middle period of the Tang Dynasty, there is a compilation consisting of six topics called the “shizhong yihuo-men 釈衆疑惑門,” in which criticisms against other sects and schools are discussed.
However, among these six topics, in （4） “nianfo dui jiangshuo-men 念仏対講説門,” （5） “nianfo dui jielu-men 念仏対戒律門,” （6） “nianfo dui liudu-men 念仏対六度門,” among others, the subject of the argument is unclear. In particular, regarding the “nianfo dui liudu-men,” which integrates the liudu （Six Perfections） into the nianfo, the argument does not target a particular school or sect, and it is said that it reflects the subjectivity of the compiler. For these reasons, it is important to elucidate the background of the composition of the work.
This problem can be elucidated by examining the ideological link with the Jingtu cibei ji, a Pure Land anthology （compiled by Huiri 慧日） of the same period. Specifically, we first confirm the various views of Daxing 大行, a Pure Land teacher, who influenced the shaping of the Nianfo jing, and the views of Huiri. We also discuss the various views of the editors of the Nianfo jing and further elucidate the phase of ideological history of the “nianfo dui liudu-men.” It is anticipated that this work will clarify that the target of criticism of this section of the Nianfo jing is Huiri.
