摘要
作为一种宗教方法,"观"在中国佛教和《周易》以及根源于《周易》思想的儒道两家都扮演着十分重要的角色。虽然"观"在佛、易、儒、道中有着不同的内涵,但它们都明显地表现为是一种技术而不是一种信仰,不管是佛教的"观心",还是《周易》"观卦"中的"观",抑或是儒家的"观物"和道家的"观妙",它们在发生作用的时候无需以信仰为前提,于是乎,中西宗教在宗教方法层面就显现出了这样的差别,即西方宗教重"信仰",而中国宗教则重"观"。
As a religious approach, ＂observing＂ plays a particular important role in Chinese Buddhism and the Zhouyi as well as Con- fucianism and Daoism originated from the thought of the Zhouyi. Though ＂guan 观＂ （observing） has different connotations in Bud- dhism, Daoism, and the Changes, it is obviously manifested as a kind of technology rather than a kind of belief. No matter ＂observing （or contemplating upon} heart/mind＂ in Buddhism, or ＂observing things＂ in Confucianism, or ＂observing wonderfulness＂ in Dao- ism, none of them relies on belief in functioning. Therefore, Chinese and Western religions differ in religious approaches in this way： the latter places emphasis on ＂observing＂ while the former holds ＂belief＂ in esteem.
