§4. The root foundation for the practice.

四、修習的根本基礎

The two elements, namo, when mentioned by themselves, aren't adequate or complete. We have to rearrange the vowels and consonants as follows: Take the a from the n, and give it to the m; take the o from the m and give it to the n, and then put the ma in front of the no. This gives us mano, the heart. Now we have the body together with the heart, and this is enough to be used as the root foundation for the practice. Mano, the heart, is primal, the great foundation. Everything we do or say comes from the heart, as stated in the Buddha's words:

　　當提到 na mo'南無』兩個元素本身時，並不適當也不完全，我們必須重排母音字母和子音字母如下：從 n 取 a 給 m，從 m 取 o 給 n，然後把 ma放在 no 前面，這就給我們 mano ─心意，現在我們有了身體伴連著心意，而這就足夠做為修習的根本基礎了，mano－心意，是最初的，偉大的基礎，我們所做或所說的每一件事都從心意而來，如佛陀所說：

mano-pubbangama dhamma
mano-settha mano-maya:

　　『諸法意為先導，心意最勝，心意所成。』

'All dhammas are preceded by the heart, dominated by the heart, made from the heart.' The Buddha formulated the entire Dhamma and Vinaya from out of this great foundation, the heart. So when his disciples contemplate in accordance with the Dhamma and Vinaya until namo is perfectly clear, then mano lies at the end point of formulation. In other words, it lies beyond all formulations.

　　『一切法以心意為先導，由心意所支配，由心意所成就。』佛陀從這個偉大的基礎—心意，來明確解說所有的正法律，所以當他的弟子們依據正法律思惟，直到 namo'南無』完全地清楚明白時，然後 mano '心意』做為詳細解說的結束，也就是它位于所有解說之後。

All supposings come from the heart. Each of us has his or her own load, which we carry as supposings and formulations in line with the currents of the flood (ogha), to the point where they give rise to unawareness (avijja), the factor that creates states of becoming and birth, all from our not being wise to these things, from our deludedly holding them all to be 'me' or 'mine'.

　　所有的想像來自心意，我們每個人都有他自己的重擔，我們帶著它做為假設和公式，隨波逐流，直到它們生起無明，也就是創造『有』和『生』的因素，都是從我們對這些事情無知，從我們愚癡地執著它們都是『我』或『我的』而起。
