《金刚经》与中国古代报应观

The Diamond Sutra and the Ancient Concept of Retribution in China

善恶报应观是古代人民对于客观世界的一种非科学的看法,是我国古代一种极其普遍的社会心理。它深深地植根于中国文化的土壤中,但又深受佛教报应观的影响,并与其相融合成为有中国特色的一种原始文化。《太平广记》中此类记载不乏其例,并且显示了报应观与《金刚经》有着紧密的联系。

The concept of good and evil retribution of ancient people is unscientific for the objective world,and it is a general social notion. It came from the traditional Chinese culture and combined with Buddhism, then became a kind of specially primitive culture.It has been discovered that there is a close relationship between The Diamond Sutra and the concept.
