The influence of Buddhism on Chinese literature permeates.The paper analyzes Du Fu’s “Qinzhou- Tonggu”group poems from the perspective of Buddhism.The group poems，often read and appreciated independently， actualy imply conscious naration of reaching Buddha.Du Fu’s self-annotation combined 12separate poems into an or- ganic whole.If the “Qinzhou-Tonggu”poems are read as Du Fu indicated in his self-annotation as a group，readers can find that the structure of the group poems are not complete until the last poem of the group.This structure reflects the trials and final epiphany of the poet which is a kind of Buddhist narative structure.The poem “Fa Qinzhou”begins and ends with its echoes with Confucius，while the Buddhist narative structure of quest-self-release-self-sacrifice runs through it.Even though the relationship betwen religion and literature could be discused in the multi-discipline way，the perspec- tive of literary studies or religious studies wil bring about diferent readings.Focusing on the form and suggestions of the poems，a literary reading reveals the religious spirit of the group poems.
