| 摘要 | There are scholars who maintain on occasion that the original position of Buddhism is not concerned with the real problems in society, politics, economy and so on. However, examining the various sutras we can find evidence that, historically, Buddhism expressed very positive concerns about the actual problems facing society. Such thought is well expressed in the idea of Cakravartin or Universal Emperor who can realize the ideal empire by governing according to the Dharma, that is, the highest Truth. This paper expounds on Cakravartin in order to establish a foundation for studies in the political thought of Buddhism. Thus, in this paper, I have scrutinized anew two kinds of conflicting hypothetical theories: The Problem of the Theory of the Pre-Buddha Age and the Post-Asoka Age. Accordingly I have reached the conclusion that the archetype of Cakravartin was formed in the Buddha`s Age and it had greatly influenced the king Asoka, and conversely, after Asoka`s Age it was inspired and developed by Asoka`s political and religious activities as a model. |
