利玛窦佛教观的转变及影响

On the transformation and the influence of Matteo Ricci's Buddhism

基于入住中国之考虑,利玛窦曾通过"以僧自居"之方式获得中国官方与百姓的认可。但随着时间的推移,其却越来越感到早期所使用的佛教权设不仅毫无意义,反而成为传教途中的一大障碍,致而他果断采取了"弃僧附儒"之策略,并公开对佛教发起攻击。然令其始料不及的是,此举虽然看似合理,但却给基督教在中国日后的传播自设了更大的障碍,乃至一度陷于被驱逐中国的危机之中。

In order to reside China, Matteo Ricci had ever acted himself as a Buddhism so as to be accepted by the Chinese. But as the time fly, Matteo Ricci had even more recognized the idea he used ifi the past had no significance, but acted as a hinder to his missionary work, so he had resolutely used the strategy of abandoning the Buddhism and following the Confucianism. The strategy had been seemed reasonable, in fact, it had acted as the more great hinder to the missionary work in China.
