《黄庭外景经》先出新证

New Evidence on Huang Ting Wai Jing Jing Came into Circulation First

关于《黄庭经》内外二景经成书先后问题的争论,一直存在着两种不同的观点。《黄庭外景经》先出之说可以得到三个方面论据的支撑。首先,《黄庭外景经》原为天师道典籍,并且现存的金石文献显示,内外二景经在遣词上有着明显的完善过程;其次,内外二景经传经祖师和说经道君在仙真谱系中存在品阶差异,说明《黄庭内景经》为上清道士所构造;再次,《黄庭内景经》中存在的众多有关上清道法的术语,在《黄庭外景经》中却全然不见。这些道法阶次上的差异,显露出置上清派于天师道之上的隐秘判教意图,可以进一步支持《黄庭外景经》先出的观点。

There always exist two kinds of controversial viewpoint on which one was circulated first about two scenes of the inside and outside of the book Huang Ting Jing. The view that Huang Ting Wai Jing Jing was circula ted first was supported in three aspects. Firstly ,Huang Ting Wai Jing Jing was originally Tianshi Taoist＇s classics, and the existing literature of inscription on stone tablet and bronze demonstrated the obvious perfecting process be tween the inside and outside of the scripture in the wording; Next, the difference of hierarchy of the Daoists who taught the scripture of inside and outside of two scenery in the immortal family shows Huang Ting Nei Jing Jing was made up by Shangqing Taoist; Third, in Huang Ting Nei Jing Jing there were numerous terminologies related to Shangqing Taoist; while they couldn＇t be seen actually in Huang Ting Wai Jing Jing. The difference of rite hierar chy revealed the secret intention of teaching that set Shangqing Taoist above the Tianshi Taoist; it can further sup-port the viewpoint that Huang Ting Wai Jing Jing was circulated first.
