老齡化社會現代佛寺公共空間參與式營造研究

潘逸煒‧王計平

寺院曾長期作為許多社區的精神中心，但在當前老齡化和城鎮化同時展開的背景下，寺院公共空間的社會價值沒有被深入發掘。在寺院公共空間提倡參與式營造，能夠喚起老年人的社區認同，振興寺院空間的同時幫助老年人實現積極老齡化，最終達到生命超越。本文討論了寺院引入參與式營造的方法和原則，在此基礎上對上海P禪院的參與式營造實驗展開研究，記錄並分析其實現路徑。研究發現，參與式營造能對寺院和社區老年人帶來積極影響，是現代寺院建設人間淨土的一條社會性途徑。

Public Space Participatory Construction of Contemporary Buddhist Temples in Aging Society

Yiwei Pan, Jiping Wang

Buddhist temples have long been the spiritual center of many communities, but its social value has not been deeply explored under the background of current aging and urbanization process. Promoting participatory construction in temple public space can arouse the community identity, activate the space, help the elderly realize the goal of active aging, and ultimately achieve self-transcendence. The paper discusses the methods and principles of introducing participatory construction into temples. On this basis, by taking an experimental participatory construction in P temple in Shanghai as a case study, the paper records and analyzes its approaches. It shows that participatory construction can bring positive impact on community elders, which is a sociological approach for practicing the theory of humanistic Buddhism in contemporary temples.

Key words: participatory construction, Buddhist temple, aging society, co-governance
