從星雲大師的婚戀觀看人間佛教在當代社會的實踐

The Practice of Humanistic Buddhism in Contemporary Society from Venerable Master Hsing Yun's View on Marriage and Love

情感是人與人之間相繫的開端，婚姻更是建立家庭、維繫社會的基礎。從佛法為人所需、為人間所設做出發，本文將探討星雲大師的婚戀觀內涵。論文以星雲大師的《迷悟之間》、《人間萬事》為主要依據，並參照相關論著。星雲大師的婚戀觀從佛教弘法利生的角度切入，以「愛」為根本，肯定婚姻是「人間不能少」的制度。其主張「相互」尊重的平等觀，在合於佛法及道德禮法下，推動婚戀的抉擇與經營。在實踐的層面，星雲大師提出諸多婚姻中的相處之道，表現在人生儀式中，則有「佛化婚禮」及「菩提眷屬祝福禮」的舉辦。大師對婚戀的態度和主張，對於個體情感抉擇、婚姻經營、煩惱對治有著莫大的助益，更有助於家庭美滿、社會的穩定及和樂。
