No Ajahn Chah《114》

《114》受苦的人相繼的會得到智慧。如果我們不受苦,我們就不會去思惟;如果我們不去思惟,智慧就不會生起;沒有了智慧,我們便懵懂無知;無知的話,我們就無法解脫痛苦——事情就是如此。因此,在我們的修行中,我們必須訓練及忍耐。當我們反觀世間時,就不會如已往般地恐懼了。佛陀並不是在世間之外覺悟的,而是在這世間內。

People who suffer will accordingly gain wisdom. If we don』t suffer, we don』t contemplate. If we don』t contemplate, no wisdom is born. Without wisdom, we don』t know. Not knowing, we can』t get free of suffering - that』s just the way it is. Therefore we must train and endure in our practice. When we then reflect on the world, we won』t be afraid like before. It isn』t that the Buddha was enlightened outside of the world but within the world itself.

開佛知見,示佛知見,使悟佛知見,入佛知見也。
