한국 노인문제의 불교 이념적 접근 = Approaches to Welfare Ideological in Buddhism of Aging Problems

국문 초록 (Abstract)

현대 한국사회에서의 화두는 노인복지이다. 노인복지는 노인의 빈곤, 질병, 소외와 역할의 상실로 표현되는 4고(苦) 가 그 대상이다. 불교에서 추구하는 기본정신인 상구보리 하화중생(上求普提 下化衆生)의 개념을 노인복제에 접목시켜보고자 하였다. 사실 노인복지는 생로병사의 인생의 라이프사이클에서 거의 마무리 단계에 있는 것이다. 불교의 이념에서는 보살도 이념과 행도덕목인 사섭법, 자비사상, 보시사상, 복전사상, 지은보은사상, 생명존중사상을 논의 하였다. 또 불교경전에서의 부모존중 이념으로 부모은중경, 효자경을 설명하였다. 결론적으로 현대의 노인문제를 불교적 이념에 접목시키는 실천적 복지가 필요함을 강조하였다.
