人話 At Last, a Normal Sentence

人話

 

哈哈😄

 

「我終於聽到一句人話了，尊重我的研究！不再指我為惡魔，」哈哈😁

（我想說：這個笑話太好笑了🤣）

 

我們南禪精舍最早時期，

對佛法最有研究的人是沛宏，

去年的文章都有提及他，

讀者可以自己去找，

 

有一陣子他有到南傳的道場去參加短期出家，

回來以後不斷對我們的群組丟資料，

 

丟到我受不了了，而他剛好丟到阿羅漢果話題，

在群組我請他把「大天五事」研究一下，才可以講阿羅漢果，我只接受有研究的佛法內容。

 

2016年10月我已經出版了《佛法最終的實現》

裡面對部派佛教的「大天五事」有所著墨，

台灣印順法師不願點明的話，我都更再深入了一些。

 

我沒辦法接受，我已經把「大天五事」寫了，

我身邊的大德還不斷在講阿羅漢果如何、又如何，

卻只落於宗教上的吹捧，

對於實質內容都已經喪失了！

（很多南禪的居士們，各自有依止的道場，基本上都是緣分聚在一起，我都採取尊重的態度。）

 

這種神跟修行者之間的分寸，已經喪失的佛法，是我不能接受的，

 

而沛宏從來沒有跟我爭辯過，

就在我點出「大天五事」後，

他就不再丟資料上群組了！

我很清楚，這是因為我的研究讓他沉默，

我們的互動還是良好的。

 

（眾所皆知聖經只有一本，省事多了！）

At Last, a Normal Sentence

 

Haha 😄

 

“I finally heard something reasonable. Someone respects my research and doesn’t call me a demon anymore!” Haha 😁

(I really think this joke is hilarious 🤣)

 

In the early period of Nanzen Vihara, the person who understood Buddhism the best was Peihong. I wrote about him in posts last year.

 

For a period of time, he went to a Theravāda temple and joined a short-term ordination. After returning, he kept sending a lot of materials to our group chat.

 

It became overwhelming. Then when he started talking about arahantship, I told him he should first study the “Five Points of Mahādeva” before discussing it. I only accept Buddhist ideas that are based on research.

 

Back in October 2016, I had already published Ultimate Realization in Buddhism, where I discussed this topic. For some topics that Master Yinshun chose not to state explicitly, I went further and examined them more directly.

 

So I could not accept that people around me kept talking about arahantship in a superficial, religious way, without real understanding.

 

(Many lay members in our group follow different teachers. We have all come together because of circumstances and connections, and I respect that.)

 

But when the boundary between belief and actual practice is lost, I cannot accept it.

Peihong never argued with me. After I mentioned the “Five Points of Mahādeva,” he stopped posting in the group.

 

I know why—my research made him stop. But we still get along well.

 

(Everyone knows, in Christianity, there is only one Bible, which makes things much simpler.!)
