學術界自十九世紀末以日本及西方範式對漢傳佛教之研究以來,當中一個論述就是指漢傳佛教有各個宗派之創立,而其中的淨土宗乃是一種純他力信仰。然而,當代學者卻在方法論上提出應以漢傳佛教之範式,對漢傳佛教和淨土法門重建出更有根據之新論。本書之英文原著A Chinese Paradigm of the Jingtu Famen: The Buddhist Thought and Practice of Sheng'an Shixian and Other Patriarchs以該新範式仔細研究清初淨土祖師省庵實賢(1686-1734)及眾祖師之論註,闡明漢傳佛教不曾發展出各個宗派之另一論述,並重塑出淨土法門乃是一種根植於大乘佛教中觀和瑜伽行以自他二力方便法門來修持智慧及慈悲之禪修傳統。該原著乃是作者將其博士論文重新增補修訂後,於2023年經荷蘭博睿(Brill)出版的專書,現由作者翻譯成本譯著。
