积极推进五台山的研究和开发

五台山,中国佛教四大名山之首,是和印度灵鹫山相媲美的世界佛教圣地之一。因此,它不仅是山西的五台山,而且也是中国的五台山,乃至世界的五台山。五台山不仅有历史悠久的佛教文化,而且还有丰富的旅游资源．是我们取之不尽、用之不竭的一大宝藏。     

持续推进新时代五台山佛教中国化

正五台山是中国佛教四大名山之一,佛教历史悠久,早在东汉永平十一年(68)就建有佛寺。五台山青黄庙并居,是汉传佛教和藏传佛教的道场,在中国佛教史上具有十分重要的地位。在五台山,不同民族的佛教僧人之间进行广泛文化交流,形成极具融合特色的五台山佛教文化,突出表现在佛教文学、佛教美术、佛教音乐和佛教建筑等各个方面。这些成果在促进五台山佛教文化自身发展的同时,也促进了不同时代、不同民族思想文化的传播、创新和发展,而且对于传承农耕和游牧融合的特色文化乃至山西的文学艺术、民居建筑、民间雕塑艺术等,也功不可没。     

五台山佛教素食文化旅游开发研究

佛教素食文化是一种重要的文化旅游资源。五台山作为我国佛教四大名山之首,具有丰富而独特的佛教素食文化旅游资源。在开发五台山佛教素食文化旅游可行性分析的基础上,提出了进一步推动五台山佛教素食文化旅游开发的对策建议,以期深入挖掘五台山佛教素食文化的内涵,丰富其佛教文化旅游产品,形成文化旅游特色,增强五台山旅游的竞争力和发展潜力。     

在首届五台山论坛闭幕式上的讲话

我说的第一点就是希望“五台山论坛”能坚持办下去,步步提高,把五台山研究上升到一个新水平。第一届论坛我认为是很成功的,就我个人来说受教育启发不少,我这次来参会主要就是想受教育,增加知识。就目前而言,五台山是中国佛教文化的缩影。为什么这么说呢？因为五台山是中国唯一的汉传佛教与藏传佛教并存、各个宗派竞相发展的佛教名山,五台山佛教文化汇萃了中国佛教文化的精华。

以五台山为龙头 提升山西佛教文化

正一、五台山得天独厚的佛教文化价值五台山是唯一汉藏佛教并存的佛教圣地和大乘佛教华严宗的发源地,2009年以文化景观入选世界遗产名录,其文化价值得天独厚。代表佛教最高智慧的明证。五台山佛教是中国佛教起落兴衰的典型代表,包含了所有中国佛教宗派,代表智慧的文殊思想是五台山佛教文化的核心,五个台顶供奉的五方文殊——聪明文殊、智慧文殊、狮子文殊、孺童文殊和无垢文殊,就是佛教最高智慧的明证。真正名副其实的华严圣境。《华严经》是大乘佛教经典,南朝刘宋永初二年(421)译出后就传入北魏,也是五台山佛教的开山圣典。唐代清     

嘉庆帝巡幸五台山之始末——以《清实录》资料为主的考察

五台山作为中国佛教四大圣地之一,距离北京较近,遂成为清代皇帝经常巡幸之地。祭祀朝圣作为国家的一件大事,除其前期的长期准备外,每个皇帝要求的出行规格也不一样。嘉庆帝巡幸五台山,前期准备长达8年之久。从巡幸五台山的整个过程可以看出,嘉庆帝崇实黜华的出行风格和对于五台山佛教文化的发展,以及五台山佛教地位的提升,都起了很大的推动作用。     

从日常生活中普遍使用的佛教文化语汇看中国人的文化自信

佛教是世界三大宗教之一,自传入中国后,就成为中国人日常生活中密不可分的一种文化,发展出许多带有中外文化交流融合特点的名词、语汇及用语,极大地丰富了中国传统文化,成为中国传统文化的一个有机组成部分。从五台山佛教文化、中国人日常生活中常用的佛教词汇及中外文化融合衍生出的文化常识等3个方面,论述了佛教文化在中国传播、流变的过程,揭示出佛教文化已成为中国传统文化的有机组成部分,深植于中国人的血脉之中,从而构成中国人文化自信的重要方面。     

我与五台山佛教音乐

五台山佛教音乐古老而独特,是五台山佛教文化的重要组成部分,也是中国传统音乐的重要组成部分。2004年五台山佛教音乐被山西省公布为首批民族民间文化保护工程试点项目,2006年被国家列入“第一批国家级非物质文化遗产名录”。     

评《正说五台山》

五台山位于山西省东北部,风光旖旎,巍峨庄严,享有“中国佛教四大名山之首”、“中国四大灵境之一”、“中国佛教建筑艺术的历史长廊”、“中国佛教造像艺术的历史画卷”、“世界佛教的文殊信仰中心”、“世界佛教五大圣地之一”等多项美誉。五台山的佛教历史融合了印度佛教、藏传佛教和汉传佛教的精华,见证了我国封建王朝的兴衰与近代社会的发展,更寄托着中华民族的宗教信仰与期望。     

Wittgenstein and the Dualism of the Inner and the Outer

A dualism characteristic of modern philosophy is the conception of the inner and the outer as two independently intelligible domains. Wittgenstein’s attack on this dualism contains deep insights. The main insight (excavated from §304 and §293 of the Philosophical Investigations) is this: our sensory consciousness is deeply shaped by language and this shaping plays a fundamental role in the etiology of the dualism. I locate this role in the learning of a sensation-language (as described in §244), by showing that this learning is, under another aspect, the incision of language, namely the infliction of cuts upon certain natural-primitive unities between the inner and the outer. These cuts, driven by powerful forces, eventually harden into an entrenched division between the inner and the outer, thereby providing a constant soil for the dualism. That this dualism is rooted in the very learning of a language is cause for ambivalence about language.     

Peter McHugh and Analysis: The One and the Many, the Universal and the Particular, the Whole and the Part

This paper takes the passing of Peter McHugh as an occasion to examine the intellectual development of his work. The paper is mainly focused on the product of his collaboration with his colleague and friend, Alan Blum. As such, it addresses the tradition of social inquiry, Analysis, which they cofounded. It traces the influence of Harold Garfinkel’s Ethnomethodology on McHugh and on the beginning of Analysis. The collaboration with Blum is examined through a variety of coauthored works but most especially in the two books On the Beginning of Social Inquiry (1974) and Self Reflection in the Arts and Sciences (1984). It also examines the relation of his independent writing before 1974, and since 1984 to the expression of the tradition of inquiry as exemplified in those two texts. The paper builds on some interview material with Peter McHugh and reflects on the influence of Peter the teacher as well as the theorist McHugh. Most especially, through its engagement with this material, it seeks to exemplify the dialectic and living nature of the program called Analysis.     

Yin and Yang,and the Hot and the Cold

Yin and Yang are important concepts in ancient Chinese philosophy.Western scholars have become more familiar with these two concepts recently,but for a long time almost no one considered comparing them with their own tradition such as the ancient Greek philosophy,and especially with the ideas of the Hot and the Cold in Presocratic philosophy.In this paper,I make an attempt to do exactly that,and especially make a detailed comparison between the thoughts of two ancient thinkers:Laozi and Anaximander.I discuss the thought of Yin and Yang in Laozi-who was the earliest philosopher making use of the concepts Yin and Yang-to express his cosmological thought in ancient Chinese philosophy.Comparatively,I discuss the ideas of the Hot and the Cold in Anaximander,the earlier among Presocratic philosophers referring to the Hot and the Cold as fundamental concepts used to establish his cosmological system.Through this comparison,I indicate that the similarity between ancient Chinese and Western traditions is far more significant than what people are used to imagining.     

经济全球化与东西方宗教

Glossolalia and the psychology of the self and narcissism

A survey of the religious and psychological literature on glossolalia (speaking in tongues) reviews the various ways that have been used to try to understand this fascinating practice. At the present time an impasse has been reached: glossolalists can no longer be viewed as suffering from psychopathological disorders or from sociological deprivation. Insights derived from the psychology of the self and narcissism, as presented in the works of Heinz Kohut and D.W. Winnicott, are used to suggest new approaches to understand glossolalia.     

Belief and the problem of Ulysses and the sirens

While self-contained, this paper is a sequel to my Belief and the Will (1984); see theBibliographical Note at the end of this paper for a survey of the relevant literature since then and supplementary references. I have meanwhile benefitted greatly from Brad Armendt's commentary and Richard Foley's How should future opinion affect current opinion?, both presented at a symposium at the APA Central Division, April 1993.     

Spontaneity and Self-Consciousness in the Groundwork and the B-Critique

ABSTRACT

According to some influential readings of the Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals, the view presented there of the kind of spontaneity we are conscious of through theoretical reason and the significance of such self-consciousness is irremediably at odds with the Critical theory, and thus roundly and rightly rejected in the second edition of the Critique of Pure Reason and the Critique of Practical Reason. This paper argues, on the contrary, that the Groundwork can be read as articulating for the first time the account of self-consciousness and spontaneity that Kant goes on to develop in the B-Critique, especially the B-Transcendental Deduction.
