本文研究目的在於探討釋聖嚴（1930-2009)思想中，對體育運動的觀點與 態度，以作為未來系統性研究的基礎。採用詮釋學方法，企圖描繪出聖嚴思想 中的體育觀點與應用方向。討論過程如下：首先，本文從理論背景中呈現出原 始佛教思想裡的「出世思想」，以及對身體的存有保持著負面態度，並提及佛教 思想演變至今，已轉向肯定身體的存有與其入世意義，而逐漸轉為正面態度。 接著，本文以聖嚴思想做為對象，探討其對「身體」所採取的態度與觀點，發 現聖嚴在態度上傾向正面的肯定立場；接著，則依循此立場，對聖嚴的體育思 想進行理解，主要從四個面向進行討論，包括：競技/競賽的意義、自我覺察的 意義、調適情緒的意義、自我完成的意義。而後，則進一步檢視聖嚴對體育活 動的主張，包括：體育活動之原則、輔助襌修的意義、保養身體的目的。文末， 以一統整論述作為本文結論，並標示後續研究者可資深入的方向。
