社運浪潮中之護教運動—以中國佛教會護教組為探討核心

Protecting Buddhism in the Wave of Social Movement: Protecting Buddhism Corps of Buddhist Association ROC as the Discussion Core

Abstracts


中國傳統社會不乏對佛教出家僧侶多所醜化與嘲弄之文字,造成社會對佛教思想與僧尼形象之誤解,其影響甚深且鉅。如今,隨著台灣政治形態的改變,佛教徒可以透過民主政治中請願、抗議、示威、遊行等合法、理性的方式,向社會大眾或政府機關表達意見與訴求,較之於千百年來君主威權體制的中國,「不依國主,則法事不立」的弘法方式與護教行動,實有天壤之別。佛教徒於現代政治環境中的護教活動,以中國佛教會護教組的成立與活動,最具代表性。護教組成立只有兩年,然對於台灣僧侶社會地位的去污名化,發揮極大的作用,對當代台灣佛教及社會具有極其重要而深遠的影響。本文擬對中佛會「護教組」成立的時代背景及緣起、建立宗旨,以及重要的護教個案,作一歷史性回顧,並試為分析其影響及意義。
