No Ajahn Chah《092》

《092》戒、定和慧共同形成了佛教修行的核心。戒，使身體和言語保持清淨，而身體則是心的住所，因此，修行是具有戒之道、定之道和慧之道的。就如同一塊木頭分成三段一樣，但實際上卻是同樣木頭。如果我們要拋掉身體和言語來修行，是沒有辦法的。我們必須和身體及言語一道修行。因此，事實上，戒、定和慧是個一起運作的和諧共同體。

Virtue, concentration, and wisdom together make up the heart of Buddhist practice. Virtue keeps the body and speech intact. And the body is the residence of the mind. So practice has the way of virtue, the way of concentration, and the way of wisdom. It』s like a piece of wood cut into three sections, but it』s really only one log. If we want to throw away body and speech, we cannot. If we want to throw away mind, we cannot. We must practice with the body and the mind. So in truth, virtue, concentration, and wisdom are one harmonious union that work together.
