楞伽經

(楞伽經, 楞伽经)

The Laṅkāvatāra sūtra, a philosophical discourse attributed to Śākyamuni as delivered on the Laṅka mountain in Ceylon. It may have been composed in the fourth or fifth century A.D.; it "represents a mature phase of speculation and not only criticizes the Sāṅkhya, Pāśupata and other Hindu schools, but is conscious of the growing resemblance of Mahāyānism to Brahmanic philosophy and tries to explain it". Eliot. There have been four translations into Chinese, the first by Dharmarakṣa between 412-433, which no longer exists; the second was by Guṇabhadra in 443, ca11ed [lang id =1028]楞伽 [lang id =1028]阿跋多羅寶經 4 juan; the third by Bodhiruci in 513, called [lang id =1028]入楞伽經 10 juan; the fourth by Śikṣānanda in 700-704, called [lang id =1028]大乘入楞伽經 7 juan. There are many treatises and commentaries on it, by Faxian and others. See <Studies in the Laṅkāvatāra Sūtra> by Suzuki and his translation of it. This was the sūtra allowed by Bodhidharma, and is the recognized text of the Chan (Zen) School. There are numerous treatises on it.

全稱《楞伽阿跋多羅寶經》。 劉宋求那跋陀羅譯， 凡四卷。 楞伽本為山名；阿跋多羅為‘入’之義。 意謂佛陀入此山所說的寶經， 為唯識宗所依六經之一。 本經宣說世界萬有皆由心識所造， 吾人認識作用的對象不在外界而在內心。 繫結合如來藏思想與唯識阿賴耶識思想， 為代表印度後期大乘佛教思想的經典， 其成立年代約在公元四百年前後。 全經一再强調， 迷的根源， 乃在於無始以來的習氣， 及未能了知諸法乃自心之顯現， 故若能徹悟意識之本性， 舍離能取、 所取之對立， 則可臻於無所分別之世界。 本經注疏極多， 有《入楞伽經疏》五卷（菩提流支）、 《楞伽經疏》七卷（新羅元曉）、 《楞伽經疏》六卷（隋代曇遷）、 《楞伽經注》五卷（唐代智嚴）、 《入楞伽心玄義》一卷（法藏）等。 十四劃
