從靈性發展談生命教育的護生意涵

（劉易齋，2001）指出生命的存有、生滅和一切生命的內容與現象，都是生命的學問。所有生命的學問都需要教育才會成爲學問，而生命教育廣泛直指所有人與自己，人與他人，人與社會，人與自然，包括動物及宇宙等面向的互融關係。「護生」（生命權）是生命教育核心議題，並非宗教專利，而靈性的發展與行爲實踐即在日常生活，食、衣、住、行中，如何發揮護生，讓人類靈性得以昇華，而又如何牽繫著身、心、靈獲得健康的均衡發展！值得吾人深思。生命是世界上最值得珍貴的東西，殺生是世界上最殘忍的事情。爲了健康，每天我們都必須吃、喝、拉、睡，有人運動，有人練習吐納，爲了得到知識，具競爭力，我們拼命地塞進一些所謂“有價值的東西”，但我們花了多少時間去滋養我們的靈性？本論文將分爲生命教育的核心價值護生、護生與靈性發展的彌合關係、靈性發展的生活實踐、護生的飲食觀以及護生、靈性發展與生命教育的健康進路等五部份進行探討。
