| 摘要 | This essay analyzes the structure and contents of the booklet referred to as Quan hua ji 勸化集, also known as Quan hua wen 勸化文 (“Tracts Encouraging Transformation”), a compilation containing fifteen texts attributed to the Chan master Changlu Zongze 長蘆 宗賾 (d. 1106), including the earliest known version of Zongze’s Zuo chan yi 坐禪儀 (“Principles of Seated Meditation”). This rare book with preface dated 1104 was recovered in the early 20th century together with a cache of Tangut documents preserved outside the city walls of Khara-Khoto. This codex predates by over a century the appending of Zuo chan yi to a later 1202 edition of Zongze’s opus Chanyuan qinggui 禪苑 清規 (“Rules of Purity for Chan Monasteries”), which heretofore was the main object of pertinent scholarly inquiry. This paper considers the significance of the inclusion of Zuo chan yi in the Quan hua ji booklet, which I argue was a collection for lay readers. The Quan hua ji compilers placed the Zuo chan yi alongside instructions for reciting Pure Land hymns, repentance rites, admonitions to abstinence from meat and alcohol, and exercises to generate bodhicitta. Finally, this paper draws this evidence together to corroborate and nuance the earlier scholarly insights by Master Sheng Yen and by my teacher Prof. Carl Bielefeldt. It is hoped this initial inquiry will be a foundation for further study of Yunmen masters and their place in the broader religious culture of the late Northern Song. |
