久違了！
收到當年來台灣訪問學者的笑容，說我把當年沒有解完的「唯心論」解完了！哈哈😄
您們也清楚要解開這一系列有關於佛法理論跟修行的問題，這個任務有多麽困難！
這是我想都不敢想的事，沒想到，走到今天把佛教「唯心論」也解出來了！
佛法修證「四聖果」的內容，能解釋出來是最重要‼️
「唯心論」被講得滿天飛，
但我從來不放在心上，
有機會把它解出來也是必須的。
而有關於《中觀——空論》，
我個人認為它不是純粹的理論，
除了是辯證，也可以用大腦去印證。
當時，印度佛法修行，傳統方式是經由入定作快速躍過人體障礙的理解，
再藉由理論辯證修正——善思維。
而後，由於能入定的修行者太少，
而能入定的，又選擇停留在三摩地的快樂，
致使修定的經驗，不能回歸到由佛法去做指引。
由於有在帶讀書會，我盡量解釋出一般人可以理解及生活中就可以用的理論，
寫出「四聖果」後，比較有空了，
最近做一些嚐試解釋《中觀——空論》
等我有想到一些解法，再寫出來，非常感謝☺️

「唯心論」一點點的內容而已，台灣佛教把它膨脹了！
我認為是整個漢傳佛教都把它膨脹，連南傳佛教也在「心法」裡團團轉
。
有人能夠討論真好！）
It’s Been a While!
I sensed a message from a visiting scholar who had come to Taiwan long ago and whom I haven’t seen in years.
Smiling, he said that I had finally solved the problem of “Idealism” that was left unresolved back then—haha 😄
You all understand how difficult it is to sort out these issues in Buddhist theory and practice.
I never imagined I could do this. But today, I’ve actually worked through the question of Buddhist “Idealism.”
What matters most is being able to clearly explain the practice and realization of the Four Stages of Enlightenment.
“Idealism” is often discussed everywhere,
but I’ve never focused on it.
Still, when the opportunity came, it was necessary to clarify it.
Regarding Madhyamaka — The Doctrine of Śūnyatā,
I don’t think it is just theory.
It involves reasoning, but it can also be examined and verified through the mind.
In early Indian Buddhism, practitioners entered deep meditation (samādhi)
to quickly go beyond the limitations of the body,
and then used reasoning to refine their understanding.
Later, fewer people could enter such states,
and those who could often stayed attached to the pleasure of meditation.
Because of this, meditative experience was no longer guided by the Dharma.
Since I lead study groups, I try to explain these ideas in a way that people can understand and apply in daily life.
After finishing my articles on the Four Stages of Enlightenment, I now have more time.
Recently, I’ve started trying to explain Madhyamaka — The Doctrine of Śūnyatā.
When I find clearer ways to explain it, I will share them. Thank you ☺️

(Response from a distant reader:
“The content of ‘Idealism’ is actually quite limited—Taiwanese Buddhism has greatly exaggerated it!”
I think the entire Chinese Buddhist tradition has done this,
and even Theravāda circles around ‘mind-Dharma’ concepts.
It is good that this can be openly discussed.)
