Sesron sect - Shoronshu

Japanese: 摂論宗 - しょうろんしゅう
Sesron sect - Shoronshu

A Chinese Buddhist school. It is a group of schools that study the doctrines of Asanga's (Asuwaka) Mahayana Treatise and Vasubandhu's (Vasuppada's) Commentary on the Mahayana, which were translated and introduced to China by Paramārtha (Zhenji, 499-569) in the Yogacara school of Indian Buddhism. The Yogacara theory attempts to describe the structure of human consciousness, including delusion and enlightenment, from a Buddhist perspective, probing into the deeper realms of that consciousness in a systematic way. In Chinese and Japanese Buddhist studies, it is generally known as the Hosso sect, which was founded by Ki (632-682) and centered on the theory of the Cheng Weishi Lun, which was introduced to China by Xuanzang (600-664). The Yogacara theory introduced by Zhenji is of a different lineage, known as ancient Yogacara, and was later absorbed into the scholarship of the Hosso sect. Study of the Mahāyāna Sūtra was not very popular during Zhenji's lifetime, but it seems to have become popular after his death when Tanqian (542-607) introduced it to the north, and it had a considerable influence on Buddhist studies in the Sui and early Tang dynasties.

Japanese:

中国の仏教学派。インド仏教で成立した瑜伽行(ゆがぎょう)派の唯識(ゆいしき)説のうち、パラマールタ(真諦(しんだい)、499―569)によって中国に翻訳・紹介されたアサンガ(無著(むじゃく))の『摂大乗論(しょうだいじょうろん)』とバスバンドゥ(世親(せしん))の『摂大乗論釈』の教理を中心として研究する学派グループをいう。唯識説は、仏教の立場から、迷悟、染浄を含む人間の意識構造を、その深層領域にまで推求しながら体系的に記述しようとするものであるが、中国および日本の仏教学では、一般には玄奘(げんじょう)(600―664)が中国に伝えた『成唯識論(じょうゆいしきろん)』の学説を中心として基(窺基(きき)、632―682)が開いた法相(ほっそう)宗の名によって知られている。真諦の伝えた唯識説はそれとは系統の異なるものであり、古唯識といわれ、のちには法相宗の学問のなかに吸収された。『摂大乗論』の学習は、真諦在世中は振るわなかったが、没後、曇遷(どんせん)(542―607)がこれを北地に伝えてから盛んになったようであり、隋(ずい)、初唐代の仏教学に少なからぬ影響を与えた。
