本論文從筆者自身的經驗出發，以出家法師為主體，探究寺院中可見與隱藏之民俗醫療網絡。民俗醫療之所以能夠廣為流傳，往往是結合了漢人的文化與心理因素，因而成為適合於漢人社會的醫療模式。現存於寺院中的民俗療法，它們的發展也有類似的模式，透過出家法師的「再轉化」，將民間之民俗療法轉化成適合出家法師使用的民俗療法。筆者透過民俗宗教與醫療觀點，探究「病」對人自身的意義，從而發現，寺院中存在的民俗醫療型態，是貼近寺院的生活，是人與人相待產生的醫療模式。這種隱而不顯的醫療網絡，仰仗的是人際信賴關係所形成的口碑，而它所造就的，是特屬於寺院的醫療網絡。筆者更透過研究發現，相較於西方醫學的權威和疏離，民俗醫療的力道其實已經相當深刻地存在於俗民的大眾生活之中。

The aim of this paper is based on monk subjectivity to explore the visible and implicit possession of the folk medical activities and network in the temple. From my own experience, I found the Folk medicine always combination of the Han Chinese culture and psychological factors. By doing so, it can spread widely. That’s also the reason why the Folk medicine can be adopted by Chinese society. Nowadays the existing folk medicine in the temple has similar spread mode. Monks re-convert the folk medicine in order to fit in with monk’s life. From the folk religion and folk medical practices viewpoints, I try to figure out the meaning of“disease”to people. They show the folk medical practice forms are generated from interpersonal relationships and close to the monastic life style. Depending on the interpersonal reliance and public praise forms the type of medical network which especially belongs to the temple. Comparing to Western medicine which bring out a sense of authority and alienation, the folk medicines are more close to the human daily life.
