《085》有一次,有人问阿姜 查关于他教导禅坐的方法:「您是否用每日面谈方法,来审视一个人的心境?」阿姜 查回答说:「在这里,我教导弟子们去审视自己的心境,去和他们自己面谈。也许一位比丘今天生气了,或许他心中有些欲望,我不知道,可是,他自己应该知道,他不须跑来问我,对不对?」
Someone once asked Ajahn Chah about the way he taught meditation: "Do you use the method of daily interviewing to examine the mind-state of a person?" Ajahn Chah responded by saying, "Here I teach disciples to examine their own mind-states, to interview themselves. Maybe a monk is angry today, or maybe he has some desire in his mind. I don’t know it but he should. He doesn’t have to come and ask me about it, does he?
