摘　　要：自性是慧能禅的核心概念,主要有三种含义。通过“见”与“现”的辨析,可以说明慧能之“悟”具有六个方面的特性。般若学所讲的中道实相思想对于慧能禅具有根本性影响,这主要表现在“无念、无相、无住”中,慧能禅的基本特色就在这三“无”中。通过“性”与“心”的关系的辨析,可以见出“性”是慧能禅的最重要的概念。Buddha-nature is the core concept that HUI Neng expatiated. It contains three different level of meaning. Through the discrimination of ＂appear＂ and ＂show＂, we can see that HUI Neng＇s buddhahood, which means the same as awakeness has six aspects of features, although they are different on the level of social, material, cultural life, people are equally available and open to this strange aptitude of our spirit which is the buddhahood, the awakeness. Buddhahood is not the result of our efforts and cannot be gained either by merit - leading a moral, virtuous life -, or by study - therefore spiritual exercises. It is an asset common to all of us, but people are not aware of its presence, generally. The spirit is naturalness, unaffectedness, opposite to artificiality.
