The Lesser , The Greater, The Diamond and The Way – 小乘、大乘、 金剛乘和大道

By Ajahn Amaro / 2019 / Chinese - 中国, English

歷史上對於大乘，南傳佛法的功德有著不同的觀點。如果你多讀文獻，就會發現，雖然佛教修持的方式多采多姿，可彼此間的緣卻極為密切。 我剛到泰國國際森林寺時，不僅沒讀過任何佛書，甚至也沒有真要當和尚的意思。我是個自由自在地追求心靈生活的流浪者，碰巧到了蘇美度法師幾年前所建立的森林寺院。在我看來，這不過是個讓我免費吃住幾宿的地方，根本沒想到，十二、三年之後我會做現在所做的事。當我請一位和尚介紹一點佛教，讓我知道一點他們生活的感受時，其中一位很快就遞給我一本禪師的開示，接著說「不用去讀上座部的文獻了，非常枯燥。讀這本書罷，其內容和我們做的差不多，讀了就會知道一些我們的修行情形了。」我心想，這些人顯然並不太執著自己的傳統。那本書名是《禪心；初學者之心》。 English (with Chinese translation)  talk given on a retreat held at  The City Of Ten-Thousand Buddhas,  Ukiah, California, July 1991. 比丘阿摩羅講於1991年7月萬佛城禪修期 王青楠博士 中譯
