It is the earliest sutra of Mahayana Buddhism. It means a sutra that shows the path (principle) to the true state of Buddhahood. The full title is the Prajnaparamita Sutra. In Amoghavajra's translation, the full title is the Greater Blissful Vajra Sutra of Empty Truth, and the Prajnaparamita Sutra of Rishū-bon is an alternative title, and it is sometimes interpreted the other way around. It is one of the later Prajnaparamita Sutras, and is an advanced form of the Rishū-bon in volume 547 of the Great Prajnaparamita Sutra. As one of the esoteric sutras, it can also be interpreted as a part of the sixth complete Vajrasekhara Sutra (the Greater Blissful Supreme Sutra). In short, this sutra should be understood as the idea of "prajna = emptiness," which is the pinnacle of Mahayana Buddhism, reaching the pinnacle of development and now showing the state of absurdity and absurdity, higher than emptiness. Emptiness is no longer an ideal state, but has come to mean a state of non-attachment that makes all practice free and unhindered. To demonstrate this, the place where this sutra is preached is now the "Palace of the King of Other Transformations," the master of the preaching is Bagabonbirushana Nyorai, and everything has left the traditional real Indian stage and moved completely to the secret Buddha land. Behind the worldview of "Amida" and "Great Joy" that thoroughly affirms reality, a strong path to self-subjugation (surrender) is shown. This sutra is always recited and danced in the Shingon sect as it shows the secrets of esoteric Buddhism.

大乗仏教の最初期の経典。仏の真実の境地に至る道(理趣)を示せる経を意味する。具名(ぐみょう)を『般若(はんにゃ)理趣経』という。また不空(ふくう)訳では、『大楽金剛(だいらくこんごう)不空真実三摩耶(さんまや)経』が具名で、「般若波羅蜜多(はらみった)理趣品(ぼん)」が異名であるとされ、その逆に解釈することもある。後期の『般若経』の一つで、『大般若経』の547巻の「理趣品」の発展形態である。密教経典の一つとしてみれば、第六全の『金剛頂経』の一部(大楽最上経)とも解釈できる。要するに本経は、大乗仏教の極地である「般若=空」の思想が発展の極地に達し、いまや、空より不空、不空真実の境地を示すに至ったと理解すべきものである。空は理念上の境地でなく、実践のすべてを自由無礙(むげ)たらしめる無執着の境地を意味するに至った。ここを示すため、いまやこの経典を示す説法の場は「他化自在天王宮」の中となり、説法の主は薄伽梵毘盧遮那如来(ばがぼんびるしゃなにょらい)となり、すべて従来の現実のインドの舞台を離れて、完全に秘密の仏国土に移っている。徹底した現実肯定の「不空」「大楽」の世界観の背後には、強い自己調伏(ちょうぶく)(降伏(ごうぶく))の道が示されている。本経は、密教の極意を示すものとして真言宗では常に読踊(どくじゅ)される。 [金岡秀友] 『八田幸雄編『梵蔵漢対照 理趣経索引』(1974・平楽寺書店)』 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
