魚 Fish

〖魚〗

我們不想要欲望，但是，如果沒有欲望，為何修行呢？我們要有修行的欲望。「想要」與「不想要」，兩者皆是雜染、煩惱、無明和愚癡。佛陀也有欲望。欲望一直存在著，它只是心的一種現象。有智慧的人也有欲望，但是，沒有執著。我們的欲望，就好像在網中抓一條大魚一樣——我們需要等待，直到大魚筋疲力盡之後，便可以輕易的捕獲它。但我們得一直盯著它使它無法逃脫。

Fish

We don’t want desire, but if there is no desire, why practice? We must have desire to practice. Buddha had desire too. It’s there all the time, but it’s only a condition of the mind. Those with wisdom, however, have desire but no attachment. Our desires are like catching a big fish in a net - we must wait until the fish loses strength and then we can catch it easily. But all the time we must keep on watching it so that it doesn’t escape.
