問53：禪修者需要多長時間才能成就各階內觀智？

Q53: Venerable Sir, how long does it take a yogi to accomplish his or her progress of Vipassana insights?

問53：禪修者需要多長時間才能成就各階內觀智？

It depends. Only a few people can describe their accomplishment of insight knowledge within a week or so, while most people usually mention their complete set of insight knowledge after one and a half months, or two. There are, however, some people who have to take three or four months to accomplish it. If, however, one practices seriously as instructed, he or she is likely to describe his or her achievement within a month or so. That』s why a yogi is typically encouraged here to practice for at least a month.

這要看情況。只有少數幾個人能在一周左右講述他們成就觀智，而大多人通常在一個半月或兩個月講述所有階次的觀智，然而有些人要三、四個月才能完成。不過，只要你能嚴格按照老師的教導用功，可能會在一個月左右描述你得到成就。這是為什麼我們通常鼓勵禪修者在此至少修一個月。
