摘要

本卷的A部分介绍了Avadānaśataka及其主题和关注的问题,特别侧重于将文本的前四章-那些在本卷的B部分翻译的-置于关于佛陀和佛性的发展思想的背景下。在对文本进行一般性介绍之后,讨论进入了每个章节的核心主题:在第一章和第二章中出现的许多过去和未来的佛陀;最近的佛陀的前世,Śākyamuni,在第二章和第四章中有相关的内容;以及第三章的pratyebuddha(无佛教时代觉醒的众生)。然后,讨论使用了整个文本的共同特征,包括奇迹、愿望和预言,来提出一个论点,即Avadānaśataka在承认三条觉醒之路的有效性(完全佛性、pratyebuddha佛性和arhatship)与明确地将完全佛性置于顶峰之间走了一条微妙的界限。此外,即使在完整的佛陀类别中,Śākyamuni佛陀作为我们这个时代的奇迹创造者,预言者,神奇的微笑者,完全令人敬畏的佛陀,占据了中心位置。

One Buddha, Many Lessons
Part A of the volume introduces the Avadānaśataka and its themes and concerns, with a particular focus on placing the first four chapters of the text – those translated in Part B of the volume – into the context of developing ideas about the Buddha and buddhahood. After a general introduction to the text, the discussion moves through themes that are core to each of the chapters under discussion: the many buddhas of the past and future who feature in chapters 1 and 2; the past lives of the most recent Buddha, Śākyamuni, which are related in chapters 2 and 4; and the pratyekabuddhas (beings awakened in times of no Buddhism) of chapter 3. The discussion then uses features common to the whole text, including miracles, aspirations and predictions, to mount an argument that the Avadānaśataka treads a fine line between acknowledging the validity of the three paths to awakening (full buddhahood, pratyekabuddhahood and arhatship) while clearly placing full buddhahood at the pinnacle. Furthermore, even within the category of full buddhas, Śākyamuni Buddha takes centre stage as the miracle-working, prediction-making, magical-smiling, utterly awe-inspiring Buddha of our time.
