摘要:

相较敦煌遗书中唐前期《金刚经》写卷仅抄经文的情况,晚唐五代宋初时期的许多《金刚经》写卷在经文前后都抄有“启请文”和“真言”等内容,逐渐形成了相对固定的“诵经前仪”和“诵经后仪”。此种现象所反映出的是持诵仪轨在《金刚经》信仰中的作用越来越突出。另外,敦煌遗书中所保存的《佛说金刚经纂》还体现出经典持诵与斋仪活动的融合,开启了后世《金刚经》科仪文献的某些端倪。通过对敦煌遗书等出土文献中《金刚经》及其相关的资料的梳理,我们可以看出《金刚经》信仰中的仪式化倾向,而且此种倾向至少可以追溯至唐代中后期。

Abstract:

Compared with the situation of merely copying the Diamond Sutra in the early and middle Tang Dynasty revealed by Dunhuang manuscripts, the texts of invitation and mantras are often added to before and after the scriptures of the Diamond Sutra in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties period. Gradually it forms a relative fixed practice of "the chanting scripture before the sutra" and "the chanting scripture after the sutra". This phenomenon demonstrates the important role of reciting ritual in the Diamond Sutra belief. In addition, Diamond Sutra Chanted by Buddha kept in Dunhuang manuscripts also reflects a fusion of classic reciting and fast ceremony activities, and it has some relation with the ritual documents of the Diamond Sutra of later generations. Through studying the documents on the Diamond Sutra in Dunhuang manuscripts and other related materials, we can easily find the tendency of the ritualization of the Diamond Sutra belief, which can be traced back to the late Tang Dynasty at least.
