韶关创建国家历史文化名城的禅文化载体思考

发挥好禅文化载体的作用在韶关市创建国家历史文化名城中具有非常重要的现实意义。禅文化是佛教的心法,传到中国后在六祖慧能的弘扬下与中国文化高度结合,生发出禅宗"一花五叶""五家七宗",对中国思想文化产生深远影响。六祖慧能在韶关弘法37年,演绎出佛教的圣典《六祖坛经》。韶关还有众多的佛教重要寺庙、遗址和文物,是当之无愧的历史文化名城。对此,韶关应加大认可、宣传力度,发挥好原有载体、潜在载体和新建载体的作用,把韶关市建成为一座名副其实的历史文化名城。

Developing Zen culture carrier plays a key role and has important practical significance for Shaoguan,especially in the course of developing Shaoguan to become a national historical and cultural city.Zen culture is the Buddhist heart,when it was spread to China,it was highly integrated with Chinese culture by the Sixth Patriarch Huineng cultivated and carried forward it,historical called ＂A flower with five leaves＂,which has a deep effect on the Chinese culture.The Sixth Patriarch Huineng,who had wrote a generally acknowledged canon Platform Sutra after propagate the dhamma in Shaoguan for 37 years.There is no doubt that Shaoguan is a famous historical and cultural city with many important Buddhist temples,sites,and relics.Therefore,Shaoguan should strengthen recognition,propaganda,playing the role of original carrier,potential carrier and new carrier to built Shaoguan as a veritable historical and cultural city.
