一二六 無言之教
「你的師父傳授你們什麼?」一位訪客前來探問。
「什麼也沒傳。」
「那麼他為什麼還給這許多開示?」
「他只點出方向,却不傳什麼。」
這位訪客聽了,百思莫解。於是此徒為他解析一番:「如果大師傳授我們某事,則我們就應努力去信解這些內容。但大師根本不在意我們信什麼--他只關心我們真正認識了多少。」
NON - INSTRUCTION
“What does your Master teach?” asked a visitor.
“Nothing,” said the disciple.
“Then why does he give discourses?”
“He only points the way he teaches nothing.”
The visitor couldn’t make sense out of this, so the disciple made it clearer. “If the
Master were to teach we would make beliefs out of his teachings. The Master is not
concerned with what we believe — only with what we see.”
