汉晋河西地缘政治与汉译佛经中心的转移

汉晋时期河西地域学术经历了从无到有,进而发展壮大为北中国学术中心的历史过程。从地理空间上来看,儒学是由东向西传播的。外来之佛学则与之相反。佛学在其东传过程中,必然要与地域社会发生关系,尤其与地缘政治。汉晋河西汉译佛经中心经历了由敦煌到姑臧,以及姑臧中心解体的过程。敦煌成为汉译佛经中心,得益于其华戎交会、远离中原政治中心的地缘政治环境;姑臧成为中心,得益于其为河西礼佛小国,如前凉、后凉、南凉、北凉等本土豪族政权的政治、经济和文化中心;姑臧汉译佛教中心的解体,则是由北魏荡平北凉政权所致。由此可以看出,河西汉晋佛教与地缘政治的关系是:地缘政治控制着士族在区域社会的发展空间,士族势力的涨落左右着区域佛教的兴衰,而佛教僧团则利用其为家族佛教与王室佛教的影响力,与区域政治势力相颉颃。因此,汉晋河西文化的繁荣,不仅有本土士族与外来避乱之儒英之贡献,传教之僧侣亦功不可没。
