略论朱子对佛教的超越

On Zhu Xi's Transcendence of Buddhism

朱子对佛教的超越体现在:不仅热爱生活,更要认真应对生活;由佛教"本心"的立场转换到理学"本天"的立场;由禅门的"理障"上升到理学的把物理与虚灵结合起来;承认"情"的积极性价值,提出"四端说";最终由佛学的"豁然顿悟"上升到理学的"豁然贯通"。朱子的哲学触及佛教的灵魂深处,的确称得上构成中国思想史上放射出异彩的"深造自得之学"。

Zhu Xi＇s transcendence of Buddhism is embodied in ： the love of life, and the serious attitude towards life; the conversion of position from Buddhist ＂conscience＂ into Neo-Confucian ＂nature＂ ; rising from the ＂avoidance＂ of Zen to the Neo-Confucian combination of the physical and ethereal; accepting the positive value of ＂emotion＂ and putting forward ＂four ends＂ ; rising from the Buddhist ＂sudden enlightenment＂ to Neo-Confucian ＂sudden mastering＂. The philosophy of Zhu Xi touched the soul of Buddhism, which can indeed be considered as a radiation of ＂Esoteric doctrine＂ of Chinese history.
