云门宗法脉归属问题试探——文偃与南岳怀让系禅师的渊源

On Yun-men Sect's Clan Identity in Zen Buddhism

文章依据所搜集到的僧传、灯史、语录等佛教典籍资料和碑铭方志等教外遗存资料,对唐末五代时期形成的“禅宗五家”之一云门宗的法脉归属问题进行了探讨。特别对云门宗形成史上的一位关键人物道悟其人其事,以及云门宗创始人文偃与南岳怀让、马祖道一一系禅师如睦州陈尊宿和灵树如敏的渊源做了辨析。指出,云门宗虽属于青原行思、石头希迁一系法脉,但其形成也与南岳、马祖系有着密切关系,对云门宗法脉归属问题的争论,乃是后世禅宗门派自严门户、妄造争端的结果。

Based on the collected Buddhist and secular documents such as biographies of monks,stories of Zen Buddhism,quotations of Zen masters as well as inscriptions on stone tablets and files of local history,this paper focuses on the study of the religious clan identity of Yun-men Sect-one of the five Zen sects formed during the period of the late Tang Dynasty and Five Dynasties.Particularly,it studies and investigates a key figure-Dao-wu who appeared in the course of the formation of Yun-men Sect,and analyzes the close relationship between Wen-yan-the founder of Yun-men Sect,Mu-zhou Chen-zun-shu and Ling-shu Ru-ming-members of Nan-yue Huai-rang and Ma-zhu Dao-yi's clan.The paper points out that Yun-men Sect belongs to Qing-yuan-xing-si and Shi-tou-xi-qian's clan,and that the issue of the clan identification of Yun-men Sect is a result of the struggles and debates among the subsequent Zen sects.
