《095》一旦你瞭解之后,一切就会迎刃而解了,而且既单纯又直接。当快乐生起时,理解它们是空的;当不快乐生起时,视它们是非你所有的、会消逝离去的。不要和它们有牵连,认为它们就是你,抑或视你自己为它们的主人。你认为木瓜树是你的,那麼,当它被砍下来时,为何你不会觉得被伤害了呢?如果你能明瞭这点,心就会平衡。一旦心平衡时,这就是正确之道──佛陀的正确教法,也就是导致解脱的教法。
It is so easy once you understand. It is so simple and direct. When pleasant things arise, understand that they are empty. When unpleasant things arise, see that they are not yours. They pass away. Don’t relate to them as being you, or see yourself as the owner of them. You think that papaya tree is yours, then why don’t you feel hurt when it is cut down? If you can understand this, then this is the correct path, the correct teaching of the Buddha, and the teaching that leads to liberation.
