Abstract

abstract:This essay will focus on three kinds of practice that help structure Śāntideva's Bodhicaryāvatāra (BCA): (1) practices of faith and devotion, (2) practices for cultivating compassion, and (3) practices for cultivating the nondual wisdom of emptiness. We will explore how these three types of practice, as explained in the BCA text, function synergistically to inform and empower each other on the path of a bodhisattva. I will draw on selected verses of the BCA to illustrate this point, and then relate it to recent writings on Śāntideva by Christian theologians Perry Schmidt-Leukel and Mark Heim.

虔诚、慈悲和智慧的协同作用在Śāntideva为佛教徒和基督徒

本文将重点讨论有助于构建Śāntideva的Bodhicaryāvatāra (BCA)的三种修持:(1)信仰与虔诚的修持;(2)培养慈悲的修持;(3)培养空性的非二元智慧的修持。我们将探讨这三种修持，如BCA文本所述，如何协同作用，在成菩萨的道路上相互告知和赋能。我将引用BCA的部分经文来说明这一点，然后将其与基督教神学家佩里·施密特·洛克尔和马克·海姆最近在Śāntideva上的文章联系起来。
