Chinese Buddhist Hsien-shih chien chu-i (現世間主義)

&nbsp;&nbsp;This paper aims at proving the hsien-shih chien chu-i (現世間主義) of Chinese Buddhism through analyses of five Chinese Buddhist thoughts. At first, shi-hsiang lun of T&quot;ien-t&quot;ai (天台實相論) is examined. T&quot;ien-t&quot;ai‘s shi-hsiang lun consists in i-nien san-ch&quot;ien shuo (一念三千說) and i-hsin san-kuan (一心三觀). I-nien san-ch&quot;ien shuo is a teaching that a human being has infinite possibility, and i-hsin san-kuan is a teaching that k&quot;ung (空), chia (假) and chung (中) are all one and the same. I think that this i-hsin san-kuan is an example par excellence of hsien-shih chien chu-i of Chinese Buddhism.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;We can see in four other Chinsese Buddhist sects doctrines similar to the i-hsin san-kuan theory of T&quot;ien-t&quot;ai. One of them is the doctrine of erh-ti ho-ming chung-tao (二諦合明中道) of San-lun tsung (三論宗). It consists in the concepts of ti-i fang-yen (第一方言), ti-erh fang-yen (第二方言) and ti-san fang-yen (第三方言) that respectively corresponds to k&quot;ung, chia and chung.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Hui-y？an of Ching-ying ssu (淨影寺 慧遠) also suggested a doctrine similar to T&quot;ien-t&quot;ai&quot;s i-hsin san-kuan in structure: k&quot;ung, yu (有), and fei-yu fei-wu (非有非無).<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;The doctrine of shi-hs？an y？an-ch&quot;i of Hua-yen (華嚴十玄緣起) presents the theory of i-chi i-qie (一卽一切). Shi-hs？an y？an-ch&quot;i consists in five parts, and two of them, i-to hsiang-jung pu-t&quot;ung men (一多相容不同門) and chu-fa hsiang-chi tzu-tsai men (諸法相卽自在門), are especially related to our topic, for the latter corresponds to k&quot;ung and the former to chia.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Finally, Liu-tsu t&quot;an-ching (六祖壇經) presents the doctrines of wu-chu (無住), wu-nien (無念) and wu-hsiang (無相). Wu-chu corresponds to k&quot;ung, wu-nien to chia, and wu-hsiang to chung.
