大理国写经《诸佛菩萨金刚等启请》中“灯请十王斋掷延寿命火食次第”及段前残文的缀合研究

An integrated study of an incomplete paragraph of a ritual text of the Dali Kingdom and Dengqingshiwangzhaizhiyanshouminghuoshicidi

云南省图藏大理国写经《诸佛菩萨金刚等启请》残叶五张。其中一张残叶中抄有残文一段以及"灯请十王斋掷延寿命火食次第"。通过对其录文、整理发现,二者实际上都与"十王斋"相关,因此当同属一系,应缀合起来研究。据此,对比唐宋之际的相关经典和彼时业已完善的水陆道场仪,可以窥知残文和该次第实际上是配合水陆法会使用的仪式文本;具体讲二者是属于荐亡(延寿命)法会中的仪式,即在"十王斋"内,设法作会,在追荐亡灵的同时,又可为生人"延寿命",其中施饿鬼荐亡和为生人"延寿命"的斋意,圆融一体,并行不悖。

Yunnan Library houses five fragments of Zhufopusajingangdengqiqing which belongs to a Buddhist scripture of the Dali Kingdom, and one fragment has an incomplete paragraph and Dengqingshiwangzhaizhiyanshouminghuoshicidi . A thorough study of this incomplete paragraph and Dengqingshiwangzhaizhiyanshouminghuoshicidi re- veals that both are related to shiwangzhai 十三斋 and should be studied as a whole. Hereby, by means of comparing them with the rele- vant scriptures and the ritual texts of Shuilu - Bodhimanda in the period of the Tang and Song dynasties, this paper concludes that the two are actually from the ritual texts used in Shuilu- Bodhimanda; to be exact, they belong to a kind of rituals for releasing the dead from suffering or almsgiving for the hungry ghost, and for extending life for the living at the same time.
