藏密各族高僧对现代政治共同体建构的贡献

On the Contributions of Eminent Tibetan Buddhist Monks to the Construction of Modern Political Community of Chinese Nationality

在中国历史上,“藏密东传”运动对元、明、清时的传统多民族国家政治共同体的建构有着重大贡献。辛亥革命后,传统多民族国家政治共同体破灭,资本帝国主义势力继续入侵,边疆与内地同时陷入危机。面对民族危亡,“藏密东传”运动再次兴起,藏密各族高僧与广大信众并再次推动了中华民族现代政治共同体的建构:民国初期,藏密各族高僧翊赞“五族共和”,引导蒙藏等族信众接纳中华民族现代政治共同体;内战期间,藏密各族高僧在内地主要城市传播藏密,在汉蒙藏各地召开祈佑国家和平的法会,引导汉藏蒙各族民众建设中华民族现代政治共同体;抗战时期,藏密各族高僧在汉蒙藏等地开展抗日宣传与抗日募捐,引导汉藏蒙各族信众共同维护现代中华民族政治共同体。

Tibetan Buddhism spreading eastwards was a major contribution to the construction of the traditional Multi-ethnic empire in Yuan,Ming and Qing dynasties.After the 1911 Revolution,the traditional political community of the multi-ethnic state was disintegrated.In face of the border crisis and the invasion of capital-imperialists,its eastward movement rose again.It helped to construct the modern unified multi-ethnic country in China,especially to promote the construction of the modern political community of Chinese nationality:Tibetan monks supported the“Republic of Multi-ethnicity”and all ethnic groups accept modern political community of Chinese nationality;Tibetan monks spread Tibetan Buddhism in the mainland,guiding people participate in political community of Chinese nationality;they appealed people to counter against Japanese in the Anti-Japanese War,which promoted people to maintain modern political community of Chinese nationality.
