초록

This research offers a comprehensive exploration of the unique role and implications of garlic within both Pāli and Chinese Buddhist scriptures, which stands in stark contrast to Buddhism's typically neutral stance towards food. This study unfolds through three interconnected inquiries: tracing the origins of the aversion to garlic and its links with Indian Brahmin tradition, undertaking an intertextual analysis across Pāli and Chinese scriptures to unearth consistent themes and divergent narratives, and evaluating whether garlic can constitute substantial karma, including negative actions, and comparing it with meat, which shares similarities in origin. Through each of these considerations, this study aims to identify the inherent negative attributes of garlic in Hindu and Buddhist scriptures, akin to the cāṇḍāla in Hindu dharmaśāstra literatures, as well as its common exceptionality allowing consumption for medicinal purposes. Moreover, by delving into garlic’s smell and the view of women related to garlic as depicted in Pāli and Chinese scriptures, the objective is to understand the diverse contextual meanings and implications associated with garlic. And striving to transcend conventional research approaches concerning garlic, garlic is examined by its botanical characteristics, and compared to meat. This effort seeks to reassess the parallelism between diverse Buddhist doctrines and the inherent negativity associated with garlic from a more comprehensive viewpoint. Through this prism, it is postulated that we can elucidate a more comprehensive understanding of the significance of garlic within Buddhism, offering a multidimensional perspective.

Abstract

This research offers a comprehensive exploration of the unique role and implications of garlic within both Pāli and Chinese Buddhist scriptures, which stands in stark contrast to Buddhism's typically neutral stance towards food. This study unfolds through three interconnected inquiries: tracing the origins of the aversion to garlic and its links with Indian Brahmin tradition, undertaking an intertextual analysis across Pāli and Chinese scriptures to unearth consistent themes and divergent narratives, and evaluating whether garlic can constitute substantial karma, including negative actions, and comparing it with meat, which shares similarities in origin. Through each of these considerations, this study aims to identify the inherent negative attributes of garlic in Hindu and Buddhist scriptures, akin to the cāṇḍāla in Hindu dharmaśāstra literatures, as well as its common exceptionality allowing consumption for medicinal purposes. Moreover, by delving into garlic’s smell and the view of women related to garlic as depicted in Pāli and Chinese scriptures, the objective is to understand the diverse contextual meanings and implications associated with garlic. And striving to transcend conventional research approaches concerning garlic, garlic is examined by its botanical characteristics, and compared to meat. This effort seeks to reassess the parallelism between diverse Buddhist doctrines and the inherent negativity associated with garlic from a more comprehensive viewpoint. Through this prism, it is postulated that we can elucidate a more comprehensive understanding of the significance of garlic within Buddhism, offering a multidimensional perspective.
