《115》感官耽溺的和自我的苦行是佛陀所不鼓励的两种道,因为这不过是快乐和痛苦罢了。我们以为自己已从痛苦中自我解脱了,但却不然;我们只是在执取乐。假使我们执取乐,我们就会再次受苦。事情就是这样,可是人们却不以为然。
Sensual indulgence and self-mortification are two paths the Buddha discouraged. This is just happiness and suffering. We imagine we have freed ourselves from suffering, but we haven’t. If we just cling to happiness, we will suffer again. That’s the way it is, people think contrarily.
