文学视野关照下的佛教植物

Study on the Plants in Buddhism from Literary Perspective

佛教典籍对植物表现出极大兴趣,主要有馨香轻软的花类植物、高大华美的乔木以及神奇夸张的灵异植物。这些佛教植物以客观可感的实体承载着深奥的佛教思想和佛教文化,是佛教文化的生动阐释,同时也增强了佛教典籍的文学意味,成为佛教文化中非常重要的一部分。

Buddhists showed great interest in plants. There are light, soft, fragrant flower plants, tall trees and gorgeous exaggerated su- pernatural magical plants. These plants carrying the esoteric Buddhist thought and Buddhist culture are vivid interpretations of Buddhist culture, but also enhance the literary meaning of Buddhist texts, Buddhist culture became a very important part of it.
