The spread of Buddhism is a particularly special connection in the northern wei dynasty’s social and historical change,therefore, in this article we take the spread and flow of the northern wei dynasty Buddhism as the breakthrough point, take the buddhist scriptures’interpretation combining with the artifact on the whole and the individual spiritual level as investigation object, On the basis of the " Hermeneutics’ that constructed by the phenomenologist and tries to make a relative system architecture for the northern wei dynasty secular buddhist society, especially observed in Buddhism historical records representatives(tanyao,tanjing,faqing,fayu.) under the background of Buddhism spread personal problem awareness and individual survival status problems.From the middle century of the forth to the fifth, is the "classic" period in the history of the development of Chinese Buddhism,to translate the Buddhist Scriptures, there are centra china system-. later Qin dynasty system and Northern Liang system, On the ground in China created a special buddhist development pattern.In the "post-classical" period, Buddhism in circulation within the limits of space and time of the northern and southern dynasty, when the northern wei dynasty (386-534) absorb centra china、later qin dynasty and liangzhou culture and form inherent buddhist ecological pattern under foreign rule. This paper studies mainly focus on the northern wei dynasty Buddhism’s development that have a significant affects by the three culture systems of the origin and impregnated by the northern wei dynasty buddhist society overview, and considering the northern wei dynasty monks’"awakening", how to step out of the "classic" before the period of the shadow of the meaning philosophy, to find to seek breakthrough of "two lines" and to adapt to the thrive of the crowd stage. The Article mainly from the perspective of artifacts on the whole level of statues, buddhist scriptures and understand the perspective of hermeneutics and inherent cultural perspective, the body in elucidating the morphology development of northern wei dynasty buddhist mutual harmony, and through the full text of the four main line is the northern wei dynasty monk buddhist interpretation of life. Full text main body is divided into four parts:the first part of northern wei dynasty once buddhist social development history is briefly discussed; Represented in the second part about the buddhist faith in the curing of "ritual" problem; The third part discusses under the rule of xianbei tuoba, the out-going fo eminent monks and tanyao、tanjing rethink the self-reflection of Buddhism development route after the religious disaster of the Taiwu emperor, as well as the underlying people’s secular buddhist faith; The fourth part briefly describes the origin of northern wei dynasty Buddhism spread problems and to discuss the social phenomenon problem again, such as " the mahayana uprising"and" offering sacrifices to buddha by burning the body".After reviewing the above, we believe that the northern wei dynasty buddhist society was guided by the northern Hang dynasty secular buddhist line consciousness of the individual,the problem of the individual’s survival ecological and buddhist thoughts have great degree of perturbation force "inside", make people thinking clearly "subject to" exposition of buddhist thought, its action and code of conduct or active or passive to meet when there is a meaning of buddhist classics.The Northern wei dynasty buddhist society completely lose the consciousness of individual independent thoughts just as " the ten sages of" shi sectarianism " but do more articles under the infrastructure that constructed by the buddhist Scriptures, around the concentrated areas that secular psychology tendency of the masses (which means, poor reasoning, hurry to action, the pursuit of secular utilitarian). And we also cannot obliterate tan yao,tan jing’s contribution to the Buddhism development,which bring about significant influence on later Chinese buddhist culture.
