佛學的發展立基於各個根本理論，面對不同的文化背景，發展了十分精彩也十分繁瑣的義理與哲思。本課程的設計首先將介紹當前國內外佛學研究的學術資訊與工具，其中包含了慣用的電子資料庫與網路資源，使得學生在學習上有參考的研究方法與依據。再者，從思想史的角度闡述佛學興起的背景，以及其對於時代反省的意義，接著深入介紹佛學義理的基本理論與內涵。本課程在課程的討論上也將以哲學問題作為主軸來穿針引線，從佛學各個不同的學派與思想，引導學生們慢慢認識與理解佛教哲學。希望透過這樣的學習與訓練，能夠讓學生們從認識佛學，進而有獨立閱讀佛學文本以及反思其中哲學問題的能力。
The development of Buddhism is based on various fundamental theories. Facing different cultural backgrounds, it has developed very exciting and complex principles and philosophy. The design of this course will first introduce the academic information and tools of current Buddhist research at home and abroad, including habitual electronic databases and online resources, so that students can have reference research methods and basis in learning. Furthermore, from the perspective of thought history, we describe the background of Buddhism’s rise and its meaning for reflection in the times, and then introduce in-depth the basic theories and connotations of Buddhist principles. In the discussion of the course, this course will also use philosophical questions as the main axis to penetrate the lead line, learning different schools and ideas from Buddhism, and guiding students to slowly understand and understand Buddhist philosophy. I hope that through this kind of learning and training, students can understand Buddhism and then have the ability to read Buddhist texts independently and reflect on the philosophical problems in it.
