Social Transformation Of Kham Tibetan Buddhism Situation Research

China's terrain is high in the west and low in the east. From EL 95 degree to WL 105 degree, several long rivers divide the Qinghai—Tibet Plateau into lots of valleys. In the ancient ages, north-western and south-western ethnic groups migrated norm -al through this zone. Lattimore named this zone "The Inner Frontier". Chinese anthropologists call it historical nationality passageway.This article comes from my experience in Kangding several years and fruits of religion changing research in this zone .The first chapter of this article is beginning of the article. It's main content is the back of research, relevant research condition, Memory of the researching story g main research methods.It also introduces the historical and geographical feature in the Khampa zone. Khampa zone in culture, political, economical all have notable difference from Tibet, including different social formations, different languages and dialects, different religious sects and thick Khampa culture traits.The second background chapter talks about feature of the Khampa Tibetan Buddhism. Buddhism reached Khampa zone long ago from Tibet. It is here that the ancient groups have big influences and lots of disciples. It is here that all Buddhism group yield dozens of famous live Buddha. Every group has good relations with central governments.The third chapter is fieldwork cases. Firstly, the case of Daoziba Village demonstrates two features: in a long term perspective, especially comparing with the social information before Liberation, religion function is withering. But in recent years, religion goes up steadily. About the Culture Revolution, religion basically is none. From the data , person understanding Buddhist knowledge is 51%. They got it from religion books and they are 35% in the believer. Lots of them is youth. So we can find out the youth is going back Believing.Then with Nanwu temple as example, from the investigation, lamas love their religion. Most lamas hope to inherit their ethnic tradition religion and culture .they are 73%.They hope to be the most important function.Then I talk about the experience in entire Champak zone. From the 12 years experiences, the people leave the tradition unity of politics and religion, so the younger students have more nationality consciousness.In the end, over all , new historical era is the time when temple have a thin political function (comparing Before Liberation) and believing become strong The forth chapter there are two angle of view about religion wakening. The social development view hopes to lead religion to beneficial to social economics construction .But culture pluralism tell us: we should cherish a broader understanding toward religion.Combining culture pluralism and Chinese cultural tradition with the Chinese theory of diversity in unity, Tibetan Buddhism has its positive functions and it is our obligation to safeguarding its inheritance.
