「尊師即修行、違逆即墮落、懷疑即業障」 佛學讀書會淪殊勝的監獄

作家「王薀」王江鎮等人囚虐蔣姓女信徒,昨遭台北地檢署起訴。王男控制信徒的手法宛如邪教教主,起訴書揭露,他對內塑造「上師」的絕對權威,禁止直呼其名,並以宗教戒律、生活監控、集體批鬥、暴力體罰削弱信徒的自主能力;位於台北市大安區的讀書會,更被內部稱為「殊勝的監獄」。

請繼續往下閱讀...

塑造絕對權威 信徒須倒退離開

王對外自稱「王薀老師」,對內則被信徒奉為「上師」,是團體最高領導者,要求信徒恪守獻上供養、視師為佛、實踐上師教言等戒律。其中「獻上供養」甚至被解釋為須將最難割捨的孩子、配偶、身體及財富全數奉獻給上師;他再以「尊師即是修行、違逆即是墮落、懷疑即是業障」等教義強化控制,逐步壓抑信徒的質疑與獨立思考。

逐步壓抑信徒的獨立思考

王的權威滲入日常生活,信徒要稱他「老師」,也不得雙眼直視他,報告完畢後須倒退離開。信徒外出須先報備、按時返回,漏接王的電話須立即回電。信徒除負責煮飯、清潔、餵狗及接送,也須處理出版、官網、晚會等事務,並輪流至王的住所及各據點值班。

若信徒觸怒王,即遭「研討」、「批鬥」、體罰或關禁閉。「研討」由王親自帶領或指定資深信徒主持,眾人包圍受罰者,以改進、消業障為名怒吼、羞辱及人身攻擊,直到對方痛哭、不斷認錯。體罰則包括掌摑、潑灑熱水,或反覆進行大禮拜、交互蹲跳及半蹲;王有時會詢問「五百還是一千」,決定責打次數,再命其他信徒執行,拒絕動手者也可能挨打。

洗澡、如廁、手機都受監控

遭關禁閉者不得回家或自由洗澡、使用手機,與他人交談也受限制;洗澡、如廁須經值班人員同意,未獲許可時,只能以塑膠袋盛裝排泄物。何人能進入讀書會或在內輪值,也須經王同意,使監控從精神服從延伸至睡眠、通訊及基本生理需求。
