论支遁清谈——以《世说新语》为中心

On Zhidun's Ideas About Debates

支遁在《世说新语》中出现近五十次,是东晋名僧与名士交游的典型。支遁清谈形式多样,内容深刻。支遁在清谈中谈著结合,先后立逍遥义与即色义,又融合为《即色游玄论》,实质是以佛解庄。王羲之、王坦之、殷浩等名士各擅道、儒、玄,与支遁有长期论战。支遁清谈的目标是会三归一,促使学理佛教走入士族社会。

Zhidun, mentioned nearly 50 times in A New Interpretation of Affairs of Human Life, is a famous monk and typical character who made friends and debated with the celebrities in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. His debates had varieties of styles with profound contents. He combined debates with writings and created spiritual free soaring and Jise theory, which were joined into On rise and Peri- patetic, which aims at interpretation of Zhuangzi with Buddhism. Celebrities such as Wang Xizhi, Wang Tanzhi and Yin Hao are good at Taoism, Confucianism and metaphysics and had longtime debates with Zhidun. Zhidun＇ s ideas about debates aim at combining the three schools into one, which would stimulate their blending into the literati and officialdom.
