本課程的目標在於透過「主題引導」與「經典導讀」的進路與學生共同研讀《六祖壇經》。首先，透過預先設定的主題，從《六祖壇經》中找尋可能或適切的解決方案，並反思其與吾人現實生命所產生的聯繫，期能將其義理與生命實踐接軌。再者，引導學生提綱挈領地閱讀《六祖壇經》的章節，培養學生從經典中把握、分析問題的能力。因此，學生們在閱讀的動態歷程中，將會面對不同的主題，教師將以「仔細」、「詳盡」、「深入淺出」與「共讀共學」的原則來引導大家共同學習，進而使得學生從閱讀中發現經典的智慧，期許學生們皆能從中反思生命的價值與意義的問題，並從閱讀經典的中獲得自我肯定的成就感。

The purpose of this course is to study the Sixth Patriarch's Sutra with students through the approach of "theme guide" and "classical guide" and "simplified reading". First, through the pre-set theme, we find possible or appropriate solutions from the Sixth Patriarch's Forum, and reflect on the connection with our real life, hoping to connect its meaning with the reality of life. Furthermore, students are guided to read the chapters of "The Sixth Patriarch's Sutra" in a stake, and cultivate students' ability to grasp and analyze problems from classics. Therefore, students will face different topics in the dynamic process of reading. The teacher will guide everyone to learn together with the principles of "careful", "detailed", "deep and clarity" and "co-reading and communicating", so that students can discover the wisdom of classics from reading. It is hoped that students can reflect on the value and meaning of life from reading, and gain a sense of self-affirmation from reading classics.
