《028》 同样的道理,在你解释「法」的时候,必须不强迫你自己。「法」应该自己发生,应该从此刻当下自然地流入。人们的接受能力各个不相同,当你们达到同一个层次时,「法」就发生了,「法」就流入了。佛陀有能力知道众生根性和接受能力,他使用这种自然的教导方法,并不是因为他拥有任何超人的教导能力,而是他对前来见他的人的性灵需求非常敏锐,因此,他便随机说教。
Similarly when you expound the Dhamma, you must not force yourself. It should happen on its won and should flow spontaneously from the present moment and circumstances. People have different levels of re3feptive ability, and when you’re there at that same level, it just happens, the Dhamma flows. The Buddha had the ability to know people’s temperaments and receptive abilities. He used this very same method of spontaneous teaching. It’s not that he possessed any special superhuman power to teach, but rather that he was sensitive to the spiritual needs of the people who came to him, and so he taught them accordingly.
