摘要

當代提倡人間佛教、人生佛教最早最有力的是太虛大師。而在臺灣，1949年之後的臺灣最早接續著談的則是東初法師。東初法師為太虛大師學生，與印順法師為同輩屬閩南佛學院的同學，晚輩則有星雲法師、聖嚴法師。這些同屬人間佛教取向但在不同的時代不同的社會環境，自然會呈現人間佛教的不同樣貌。本文就東初法師1949年後在臺灣的業績與著述，呈現人間佛教在動亂時代的堅持與應變能力。

The earliest and most powerful advocate of Human Buddhist and Life Buddhist in the contemporary era is Master Taixu. While In Taiwan, the earliest follower after year 1949 is Master Dong-Chu. Master Dongchu is Master Taixu's student. He is also a fellow student of Master Yin-Shun, who both belonged to Minnan Buddhist Institute. His juniors are Master Hsing-Yun and Master Sheng-Yen. Though they are all considered as human-oriented Buddhism, different eras and different social environments will naturally make human Buddhism appear in different ways. This paper is about Master Dong- Chu's accomplishments and writings in Taiwan after year 1949, which present the persistence and adaptability of human Buddhism in the era of turmoil.
