This paper takes a philosophical approach to the research topic ''love'' based on the 7th Assembly of the Sutras of the Perfection of Wisdom, which was translated by Xuanzang in Tang dynasty, as well as Saptaśatikā Prajñāpāramitā in Sanskrit, and refers to the English parallel version ''The Perfection of Wisdom in 700 Lines'' by Edward Conze. The gist of the 7th Assembly of the Sutras of the Perfection of Wisdom is teaching sentient beings to see tathāgata, bodhi, buddha, buddhadharma, and even sarvadharma from the perspective of tathatākāra, by which helping them develop the wisdom and sentiment of approaching nirvāna and transforming sentient beings. This paper, first, lays out grounds for supporting the gist. Second, the potential crux of love is expounded in terms of the overlapping key concepts ''ātman, vikalpa, apekṣā and upalabdhi'' between the literature and love. Against this background, this paper further spells out how the four key concepts ''ātman, avikalpa, apeksā and anupalabdhi'' work in the process of bodhisattvas' benefiting sentient beings. On the basis of the above understanding, this paper, finally, tries to explain how to apply the ideas of bodhisattvas' benefiting sentient beings to develop love. In this sense, this paper constructs a view on love leading to the Path to Enlightenment. |
