三界唯心與星雲大師的經典詮釋
＂The Three Realms are Created by the Mind＂ and Venerable Master Hsing Yun's Interpretation of Buddhist Scriptures
摘要
「三界唯心」是大乘佛教的重要教說之一，在現代佛教界舉足輕重的星雲大師，在其詮釋經典的義理或對信徒開示時，「三界唯心，萬法唯識」是相當核心的思想。大師對「三界唯心」的解釋，最終還是歸結到三界一切法不離我們的本心、佛性，透顯出其基本立場還是屬於禪宗型態的。他在解說《六祖壇經》時，是從一相三昧、一行三昧的修行來說三界唯心、萬法唯識。也就是說當我們不執著於任何的相，或者說我們的心可以直心而行，不再諂曲時，那麼三界、萬法也就會跟著清淨，即所謂的「心淨則國土淨」。由此可見星雲大師對義理的詮釋永遠是與實踐的關懷密切相關，也充分表現出其人間佛教的特色。

＂The three realms are created by the mind＂ is one of the most important teachings of Mahayana Buddhism. For Venerable Master Hsing Yun, an influential master of contemporary Buddhism, the concept of ＂the three realms are created by the mind; the myriad of phenomena are of the consciousness＂ is fundamental when explaining the teachings in Buddhist scriptures or giving Dharma talks to devotees. Venerable Master Hsing Yun's interpretation of ＂the three realms are created by the mind＂ ultimately comes down to all phenomena in the three dharma realms that cannot be separated from the original mind and buddha nature, also revealing that his fundamental position is still linked to the Chan school. In his commentaries on the Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch, Venerable Master Hsing Yun explains ＂the three realms are created by the mind; the myriad phenomena are of the consciousness＂ from the perspective of ＂samādhi of one characteristic and samādhi of perfect unity of body and mind in all activities.＂ Namely, when there is no attachment to any form, or one can act with an honest and frank mind, the three dharma realms and myriad phenomena will be pure, thus ＂a pure mind sees the world just as pure.＂ This shows that Venerable Master Hsing Yun's interpretation of the teachings has always been closely related to actual practice and demonstrates the qualities of Humanistic Buddhism.
