摘要
中唐以来,中国禅的禅师们在启悟弟子时常常弹指,以之为一种特殊的身体语言,传递宗门心法。这既是对原始佛教传统的承袭,也是中国禅活学活用、进而衍生出新意的典范。弹指行为在原始佛教交际行为中有赞叹、警示、嗟叹三个基本意旨,禅宗弹指继承了这三个基本交际意旨,并结合宗门禅法思想的特征,开拓出了新的交际用途。
From Mid-Tang dynasty,Zen＇s masters have taught students with the action of fillip which was not only the inheritance of Indian Buddhism but the good example of Zen＇s innovation.In the communicative behaviors of primitive Buddhism,fillip has three basic meanings： praising,warning and sighing.The fillip of Zen inherited the three basic meanings,and developed new communicative uses combining with the characteristics of Zen＇s thoughts.
