摘要
古代佛教从"等视有情"和"毕竟平等"的双重意义上论述"平等",但与以"权利"为中心的现代平等观念依然有基本的差别。通过考察"平等"在现代嬗变中的佛教诠释,即从近代思想家从佛教中发掘现代平等观念的传统资源这一现象出发,反观佛教的理论说明与宗教实践之间的紧张,可以凸显佛教"平等"观念的历史轮廓。反思"消极平等"和"积极平等"之间的变形,从而提示观念嬗变的现代性条件不应被研究者忽略。
Ancient Buddhism explains the idea of ＂equality＂ with the dual meaning of ＂regarded as one sentient being＂ and ＂all living beings universal and equal＂,which differs fundamentally from the modern concept of right-centered equality.A Buddhist interpretation of ＂equality＂,based upon the phenomenon that modern thinkers exploited the traditional resources of the concept of modern equality in Buddhism to study the tension between Buddhist doctrines and religious practice,can disclose the historical evolution of the idea of equality in Buddhism.The reflection on the difference between ＂negative equality＂ and＂positive equality＂concludes that researchers should pay more attention to the modern conditions of the transformation of the concept.
