摘要

星雲大師畢生致力於打造人間淨土，而他的禪宗與淨土宗觀點是他建構人間淨土的重要依據：禪宗是吾人在生活中實現人間淨土的主要實踐方法；淨土宗是規劃人間淨土藍圖的主要參考。進一步的說，星雲大師秉持佛法生活化及現代化的原則，將淨土宗思想適應新時代與新社會的步調，期望人間淨土是莊嚴的、富裕的、和諧的、慈悲的；而配合禪宗修行，調適身心，由個體而群體，由個人修養到社會互動，方有望建造人間淨土。

Venerable Master Hsing Yun has devoted his whole life to building a Pure Land on earth. The Chan School and Pure Land School are important bases for his construction of Pure Land on earth. The Chan School is a practical method applied by enlightened practitioners in daily lives to realize a Pure Land on earth. On the other hand, the Pure Land School is a reference for planning the blueprint of Pure Land on earth. In other words, Venerable Master Hsing Yun held onto the principles of making Buddhism applicable to daily living and in this modern age. He adapted the ideas of the Pure Land School to suit the new age and the pace of society, with the hope that the Pure Land on earth is solemn, abundant, harmonious and compassionate. In bringing together the practices of Chan School as well as mental and physical adjustment, this shift from individual to the multitude, and from personal accomplishment to social interaction, contributes to building a Pure Land on earth.
