No Ajahn Chah《171》

《171》有一次阿姜 查問他的一位弟子，他是否曾想還俗，他是否終身為僧。那位弟子說，這個問題很難，雖然他並不打算還俗，可是，他並無法很確定他永遠不會。他說，他的想法似乎毫無意義。阿姜 查于是回答：「真正毫無意義的是真實的佛法。」

One of Ajahn Chah』s disciples was once asked if he was ever going to disrobe, if he was going to die in the yellow robes. The disciple said that it was hard to think about, and that although he had no plans to disrobe, he couldn』t really decide that he never would. When he looked into it, he said, his thoughts seemed meaningless. Ajahn Chah then replied by saying, “That they are meaningless is the real Dhamma.”
