少林寺三教九流碑说

少林寺院内的《混元三教九流图赞》碑刻,充分肯定"三教"、"九流"的地位和作用,在中国所有遗留碑刻甚至文献记载中可谓首屈一指,具有较高的历史和文物价值。它也是反映明朝宗室朱载堉人文思想的珍贵资料,与其他崇佛抑儒、崇儒反佛论者相比,其思想性高于艺术性。碑刻图赞对中国传统思想文化的反思和认识,具有很高的意趣和深邃内涵。

The stele of Three Religious and Nine Schools in Shaolin Temple has some history and cultural value, because the inscriptions on it fully affirmed the status and function of the religious and schools. The contents also reflected the idea of Zhu Zaiyu, so it also has artistic value.
