| Dissertation note |
This thesis addresses a much debated controversy as to whether violence as pre-emptive self defence to protect the Buddhasāsana is provisionally allowed in the original spirits of Buddhism. Based upon early Buddhist texts, namely the pāli Mahāparinibbāna-sutta, its parallels in Dīghagama and Mūlasarvāstivāda Vinayavastu, and other suttanta texts, especially Anguttara-Nikāya in the Pāli canon and the Chinese Āgama, factors contributing to the longevity of the Buddhasāsana are compared and analysed. The overwhelming majority of these texts point to internal factors within the Sangha as crucial for the long-lasting of the Buddhasāsana. These factors include unity of the Sangha, mental cultivation, higher virtue, Saddhamma learning and preservation. Particular emphasis is directed to unity of the Sangha with reverence for the teacher (the Buddha), the Dhamma and the Sangha being foremost on which all other supportive factors are founded. When compared with factors leading to the decline of medieval Indian Buddhism by contemporary scholarship, we find a close resemblance with those listed in early Buddhist texts. There is absolutely no justifiable violence explicity encouraged in these texts. It is, therefore, concluded that it is the internal affairs and conducts of the Sangha which play principal roles in the non-decline of the Buddhasāsana. |
