Kūkai's Bodily Absorption and Modern Scientific Philosophy — A Rigorous Analysis from the Self-Referential Mind-Field to T⁶⁴ Sectional Projections

Traditional Buddhist scholarship has offered doctrinal interpretations of this phenomenon, yet a dialogue interface with modern scientific philosophy has been lacking.

Abstract

Kūkai (Kōbō Daishi) entered meditative absorption in 835 CE; his body remains incorrupt to this day and receives daily homage from devotees at Okunoin on Mount Kōya. Traditional Buddhist scholarship has offered doctrinal interpretations of this phenomenon, yet a dialogue interface with modern scientific philosophy has been lacking. While preserving the depth of Buddhist textual research, the present paper introduces the cognitive framework of Yuanxian Theory: 1. defines a “section” as a projection operator \(\pi_{\sigma}\) on the fibration of \(T^{64}\);2. clarifies the subordination relation between \(\Psi^{*}\) and \(T^{64}\): \(\Psi^{*}\in\mathrm{Fix}(F)\), where \(F\) is the self-referential operator on \(T^{64}\);3. restricts “immutability” to the axiomatic layer, leaving derivative analyses open to future empirical evidence. **Core claims**: - Bodily incorruptibility is not “material structure that has not decomposed” — it is the steady-state manifestation of \(\Psi^{*}\) after self-referential closure has been completed on the “bodily section”.- The “spiritual-information energy field” is not “another kind of field” — it is the self-inspection phase structure of \(\Psi^{*}\) on the latent-phase section.- The six supernormal powers are not “supernatural abilities” — they are projection readings of \(\Psi^{*}\) on six specific sections. --- 空海(弘法大师)于公元835年入定,至今肉身不坏,每日于高野山奥之院接受信徒顶礼。这一现象在传统佛学研究中有教理层面的阐释,但始终缺乏与现代科学哲学的对话接口。 本文在保持佛学研究文献深度的基础上,引入元宪理论的认知框架: 1. 将“截面”定义为 \(T^{64}\) 纤维化上的投影算子 \(\pi_{\sigma}\);2. 明确 \(\Psi^{*}\) 与 \(T^{64}\) 的从属关系:\(\Psi^{*}\in\mathrm{Fix}(F)\),其中 \(F\) 是 \(T^{64}\) 上的自指算子;3. 将“不可更易”限定于公理层,派生解析向未来经验敞开。 **核心论点**: - 肉身不坏不是“物质结构未被分解”——它是 \(\Psi^{*}\) 在“肉身截面”上完成自指闭合后的稳态显影。- “精神信息能量场”不是“另一种场”——它是 \(\Psi^{*}\) 在隐相截面上的自检相位结构。- 六神通不是“超自然能力”——它们是 \(\Psi^{*}\) 在六个特定截面上的投影读数。
