「什麼是一個人最高明的作為?」
「靜坐冥思。」
「可是我們很少看見大師自己靜坐冥思。他常在家務事及田裏來囘奔波,或是接待訪客,從事寫作等等。他甚至還負責整理寺內圖書這類瑣事呢!」
「你為什麼把所有時間都耗在工作上呢?」
「當一個人工作時,他未必不在靜坐冥思啊!」
CREATIVITY
“What is the highest act a person can perform?”
“Sitting in meditation.”
“But the Master himself was rarely seen to sit in meditation. He was ceaselessly
engaged in housework and fieldwork, in meeting people and writing books. He even took
up the book-keeping chores of the monastery.
“Why then do you spend all your time in work?”
“When one works one need not cease to sit in meditation.”
