中文摘要

太極拳是華人特有的傳統運動,這種運動是以用意為主。由意來領導動作,從而帶動內氣的周轉,是一種可以養成練習者的專注力、培養身體鬆柔度,同時又可以調整練習者呼吸狀態的訓練,所以是初習禪定者一種很好的輔助運動。此外,因為太極拳可以養成練習者的專注力,故可將之視為是一種禪定。對於無意學習禪定的人來說,練習太極拳除了可透過運動的功效達到健身的目的外,亦可以得到收攝散亂的心念與意念專注的意外效果。目的:本文旨在闡揚太極拳對初學禪定者的調身功效以及一般大眾經由練習太極拳所獲得的靜心效益,不涉入對「太極」意涵的探討。方法:由於佛教在禪定有特別的成就,因此本文主要依據佛教對禪定的看法來檢視太極拳的禪定特質,同時並佐以太極拳先賢所遺留的相關資料以及現代科學的相關研究,在太極拳的拳理與要領中領會太極拳的禪定特質。結果:太極拳運動具備禪定的特質,因此禪定的學習者透過太極拳的運動方式不但可以獲得調身的效果,亦不會因為太極拳而使心境起伏躁動,至於一般練習太極拳的大眾則可透過太極拳獲得初步的靜心的效果。結論:太極拳對心理狀態的改善與心靈的提昇所具有正面且積極性的意義。
