论加比尔的宗教哲学

On the Religious Philosophy of Kabirdas

加比尔承认上帝的存在又反对偶像崇拜,他在综合奥义书哲学和伊斯兰教哲学观点的基础上,创立了印度中世纪虔诚运动的“无性派”理论。他的理论在中世纪印度特定的社会条件下,为印度教的改革开辟了一条道路,也为印度教徒和穆斯林的和睦相处提供了理论基础,因而对促进两种不同文化的交流起到积极作用。此外,加比尔的思想还直接影响到锡克教的形成和发展,也在一定程度上促进了印度多元文化格局的形成,并间接影响了印度历史的发展进程。

The author evaluates the religious position and philosophical thinking of Kabirdas in this study of Kabirdas ' poems as primary sources. Kabirdas both opposed idolatry and acknowledged the existence of God. He synthesized the philosophy of Upanisads and Islamic philosophy, and established the doctrine of Nirguna for the Bhakti Movement in the medieval India. The doctrine opened a path for the reform of Hinduism, and laid an ideological foundation for a harmonious relationship between Hindus and Moslems. Kabirdas played a positive role in promoting the exchanges of the two civilizations. In addition, the thinking of Kabirdas exerted immediate impact upon the formation and the development of Sikhism, which contributed to the multicultural development in Indian history.
