僧安道壹身世新证

New Evidence of the Life of Monk Seng An Daoyi

僧安道壹的身世一直是学者关注的热点,但无论是历史典籍、佛学僧传还是地方志书,皆没有正面文字介绍。《魏书》《北史》等典籍中有关于南北朝鲁西第一家族东平毕氏的相关介绍,其中关于“僧安袭爵于东平公”的记载及其它文献资料均指向毕僧安与僧安道一为同一个人。

The life of the monk Seng An Daoyi has always been a hot topic for scholars,but it has not been positively described in any of the historical texts,Buddhist monks'biographies,or local chronicles.However,there is no positive introduction in the historical books,be it Buddhist monks'biographies or local chronicles.In Wei Shu,Northern History and other books,there are introductions about Dongping Bi,the first family of Lushi in North and South Dynasties,in which the record of"Seng An inherited the title of Duke of Dongping"and other documents point to the fact that Bi Sengan and Seng An Daoyi were one and the same person.
