經的看法 6 A View of Buddhist Texts 6

Before Buddha achieve Nirvana, he was a person like us, suffer pains and hunger, sleep and walk and sit and think and contemplated about the Truth.

佛陀涅槃前，他跟我們一樣，會痛會餓，行住坐臥都跟一般人沒什麼不同，同時也深思真相。

The Path to Buddhahood is available to us precisely because Buddha was like us before Nirvana. If Buddha is a god, then we can only walk the path, but never able to reach the destination. But because Buddha is a man, we can follow his footstep and reach the world he told.

正是因為佛陀涅槃前跟我們都一樣，是人身，我們才能走他走過的路。如果佛陀是神，那我們是只能修道，而無法成道的，因為佛陀是人，所以跟隨他的腳步，才能走到他說的世界。

So don't worry about the supernatural or mystical parts of Buddhist Texts; those are not important to us. Let's worry about Buddha the human being, because that's how we find the path.

因此我們不用去鑽研佛經裡頭超自然或神秘的文字，這些都不重要。我們只需要跟一個叫「佛陀」的人。
