近代中国佛教对道教善书伦理的接受——以印光大师为例

The Acceptance of Taoist Books about Moral-Instruction Ethics in Modern Chinese Buddhism——Taking Yinguang Master as an Example

近代中国,道教善书在民间社会广泛流行与兴盛,其所蕴含之劝善去恶等宗教伦理被普遍认同与接受,以印光为代表的佛教僧人对其亦甚为褒扬与推崇。通过梳理印光言论,探究其对道教善书伦理认同的因由与实质,认为印光承袭三教合一思想,将之视同佛经,作为推行因果救世与伦理教化之方便法门,以弘扬佛教慈悲济世的大乘菩萨精神。此类善书通俗晓畅,易于普通大众所领会与接受是其中一项因由。印光秉持佛本精神,以佛摄道,在需要时对此类善书加以佛学理解与诠释甚至转化,这充分彰显印光为弘法护教、利济群生所作的伟大贡献,从一个侧面折射出近代佛教对道教善书伦理所持的真实态度。
