修行探討自序

Preface

我在很年輕的時候，就憑著一股對佛法的熱情剃度出家，不料真正踏入佛門後，一直陷入對佛法的焦慮裡，佛學太多太大了，光去讀它就腦力衰竭，更不要說去把它修行實踐出來。

為了明白佛學，我日日夜夜，不是讀書，就是思索，哪怕外面的人事困難重重！都不曾讓我停歇，越困難越激發我想明白佛學的慾望，一晃眼三十年過去，我常想，不知有誰會像我當年困在佛法不明的焦慮裡？於是「修行的探討」出現，希望能給同道人一些幫忙。

這是一本思想性質的佛學，憑藉著思索讓修學者有意識的去思考自身的問題，以期達到啟發的作用，願有心人都能如願的成長！

Preface

I took the tonsure with an enthusiasm for Buddhism when I was very young. However, beyond my expectation, I was trapped in anxiety about Buddhism after I actually became a nun. Buddhism is so broad and profound that sheer reading of its texts exhausted me, not to mention carrying it out.

In order to understand Buddhism, I kept either reading or reasoning day and night, despite all the difficulties and troubles in personnel matters. The more difficult it was, the more desire I had for the understanding of Buddhism. Thirty years have passed in a twinkling. I often wonder if there is anyone trapped in the unknowing anxiety as I was before?! Thus, An Investigation into Practice of Buddhism comes out, hoping it may offer some help to my fellow practitioners.

This is a book of Buddhism thinking concepts. It hopes to inspire the practitioners to think consciously about their own problems and then to reach enlightenment. May all the determined practitioners progress as they expect.
