自甘贫贱

 一四二 自甘贫贱

大师向一位来自遥远异乡的弟子问道:「你究竟在寻找什么?」

「明心见性。」

「你自家已拥有一座宝库,为什么却跑到外地寻宝?」


「我的宝库在哪儿?」


「就是这自你心内扬起的渴求之心。」

这位弟子当下即开悟了。在往后的岁月里,他常向朋友说:「开启你自己的宝库,享用你的宝藏。」

IMPOVERISHMENT

When a disciple came from a far-away country, the Master asked, “What are you
seeking?”

“Enlightenment.”

“You have your own treasure house. Why do you search outside?”

“Where is my treasure house?”

“This seeking that has come upon you.”

At that moment the disciple was enlightened. Years later he would say to his friends,
“Open your own treasure house and enjoy your treasures.”
