| 摘要 | The topic of the recent "sudden/gradual" debates in Korean Buddhism on the Zen doctrine of enlightenment and practice touches the very core issue of the whole Buddhist tradition, that is, the nature of enlightenment experience and endeavor for practice. The debates have provided a rare opportunity for Buddhist scholarship to engage in philosophical discourse on the legacy of Zen doctrine of enlightenment and practice in contemporary milieu. However, one of the striking features of these debates is that the arguments presented in them lack a fully shared context in which an effective discourse can take place. A closer examination reveals that each dispute is framed within its own unspoken premises, thus preventing any real discourse. In particular, outstanding discrepancy can be found between the premises of Songch'ol's subitist doctrine and those of the modern Buddhist scholarship regarding Zen enlightenment and practice, which explains why Songch'ol's doctrine has been under-represented in the debates. The objective of this dissertation is to obtain contextualized understanding of the arguments presented in the debates, so that the involved issues can be addressed effectively in further development of the debates. To achieve that objective, attempts are made to present: (1) a systematic understanding of Songch'ol's subitist doctrine regarding Zen Buddhist enlightenment and practice; (2) critical analyses of arguments presented in the debates; and (3) a critical review of the issues involved in the relation between modern Buddhist scholarship and the Buddhist tradition it studies. |
