要以佛陀為榜樣,並將他的願景付諸實踐就必須摒棄所有形式的憍慢「他利用佛教歷史的文獻來證明他的批評是有事實根據的,並揭露因無知於經典所教而散播令人瞠目的誤解。因此,任何閱讀此書的人,很可能會像我一樣,覺得它應當被整個佛教界廣泛地閱讀和理解。」——Richard Gombrich(牛津大學退休教授)當代著名學者無著比丘,透過對巴利經藏的嚴謹研究,深入探討不同佛教傳承中的四種「憍慢」,以簡單易懂的方式,帶領讀者認識佛教中最具爭議的議題。一、佛教中的父權思想,導致尼眾地位長期受到貶抑。二、大乘佛教將非菩薩道修行者貶為小乘,視其為低等。三、上座部佛教認為自身所傳承的教法,才是最原初、最正統的佛陀教法。四、新興的世俗佛教,聲稱自己比傳統佛教徒更準確理解佛陀的思想。無著比丘根據經典重新審思以上議題,指出這類優越心態其實無助於修行,並提醒我們:「不論你屬於哪一個傳統,唯有放下自我、捨棄憍慢與我慢,才能成為更好的佛教徒。」當我們釐清何為憍慢,以及如何跨越憍慢,進而平等相待、異中求同,不僅有助於打破成見的藩籬,更能體會佛陀本懷,提昇自我修行。

對於西藏佛教歷史或教義感興趣的讀者來說,這是一部難得的讀本。
「這本書是藏學家羅納德.戴維森的代表作之一,反映的是歷史文獻學者視角下的西藏歷史與教法演變,特別是薩迦派道果系統教法的文獻成型過程。希望此中譯本的出版,對於臺灣佛學、藏學研究社群,能有所助益。」——梅靜軒〈導讀〉
西元950~1200年之間的西藏社會,是如何從武裝游擊兵的交鋒與體制崩潰的邊緣,轉化為由瑜伽士與學者所引導的佛教文化世界?
作者羅納德.戴維森(Ronald M. Davidson)認為這是由於一群活躍於此時期的僧侶、瑜伽士與貴族們合力激盪出的成果。西藏僧侶與瑜伽士翻譯了大量的印度佛教典籍。他們運用這些密續佛教的文獻與修持法為基礎,重塑西藏宗教、文化與政治體制。最終促成了西藏佛教的崛起,乃至取代印度,成為全亞洲的佛教文化中心。
作者生動地描繪了這些現身歷史舞台的人物,引領讀者觀看一群宗教菁英與權貴之士,如何打造出一個佛教文化世界,徹底地改變了西藏社會與文化的發展方向,鮮活地呈現了中世紀西藏發展的內在張力與轉型過程。

在西藏被否定,在中國被遺忘,傳入西藏的中國禪法幾乎已完全消失?西藏禪法顯然曾經融入密法的元素,而發展成一個獨特的傳統,然而這個神奇的融合卻仍鮮為人知。二十世紀初以前,西藏傳統文獻幾乎不見中國禪佛教的痕跡。然而,隨著敦煌洞窟的開鑿,發現寫於十世紀左右的各種語言寫本,改變人們對於早期禪佛教的認識。本書翻譯自一些倖存於敦煌的早期重要藏語禪本。這些譯文傳達出禪佛教傳統的不同面向。譯文前的導讀,除了討論儀式的功能、法諍、傳承與早期禪修傳統,也解釋這些文本如何用於實際修持。西方在對禪宗發生興趣的早期階段,認為禪宗不奉行任何形式的儀式,實則不然,這是由於當時的新教情結,以及反制式化活動所造成的錯誤印象。事實上,有關禪宗儀式的新近研究指出,禪的日常其實是最淋漓盡致的儀式性生活。本書在提供藏文禪法寫本譯文的同時,也試圖描繪當時宗教型態與人民生活,讓人一探中國禪法在吐蕃統治敦煌時期的流布與傳承。

This is the fourth volume of proceedings of the Āgama seminars convened by the Āgama Research Group at the Dharma Drum Institute of Liberal Arts (formerly Dharma Drum Buddhist College). It comprises nineteen studies, contributed by eighteen different scholars, on various themes related to the Connected Collections of discourses (suttas, sūtras) — Saṃyutta-nikāya in Pali, Saṃyukta-āgama in Sanskrit — transmitted by different early Buddhist lineages of reciters, preserved in their Indic originals in Gandhari, Pali and Sanskrit as well as in Chinese and Tibetan translations. This research draws attention to fundamental methodological points posed by the study of these scriptural collections as windows into the formation of early Buddhist texts and the organisation of their transmission.

This is the second volume of proceedings of the Āgama seminars convened by the Āgama Research Group at the Dharma Drum Institute of Liberal Arts (formerly Dharma Drum Buddhist College). On this occasion, the Āgama Research Group met to discuss the early collections of long discourses transmitted by the different Buddhist schools. Thanks to the discovery and ongoing publication of the incomplete Sanskrit Dīrgha-āgama manu¬script from Gilgit, three different versions of the Collec¬tion of Long Discourses are now avail¬able for comparative study: the Pali Dīgha-nikāya transmitted within the Theravāda tradition, the just-mentioned Dīrgha-āgama in Sanskrit, identified as Sar¬vās¬ti-vāda or Mūlasarvāstivāda, and the Chinese translation of an Indic Dīrgha-āgama (長阿含經), generally considered to be affiliated with the Dhar¬ma¬¬guptakas. The six papers collected here focus on research on these various incarnations of the collections of long discourses in comparative perspective.
