    领悟

    Shared a meaningful article..


    手酸了,我們自然會放下手上的東西;心裡累了,何不就把心頭重擔也給放下來呢?
    最 近認識一位美國籍的出家師父,非常有趣。特別是他叫我舉起蕃茄汁跟他說話的經驗。 我們約在新竹的一家茶館,用英文談論著心經(Heart Sutra),師父用英文跟我解釋因果(cause and effect)、輪迴(reincarnation)....但這些事情,這都還不稀奇。 有趣的事情在後頭呢!
    師父一聽完我跟他提到的個人煩惱的時候,他索性要我左手提起他剛買的三罐番茄汁,一邊提著,一邊跟他說話。 可想而知,我左手感覺到疲勞的程度,跟時間成了正比。也氣惱著為何師父要我一邊提著三罐蕃茄汁,一邊跟他說話。
    受 不了這樣的酸楚,我自行把左手放下,卻聽到師父跟我說:「Hold it up, and keep talking to me.」,聽到這樣的話,心裡不免起了疑心──我手提得那麼酸,為何不讓我放下手上的重物,輕鬆地與他對談? 約莫過了10分鐘,我的左手實在承受不住了,才聽見師父跟我說:「Now you can put it down.」。
    看著我狐疑的臉,師父居然笑了出來。「你不喜歡提著重物跟我說話,為何你卻喜歡帶著煩惱來跟我說話,過著你的生活呢?手酸了,放下就好,對待煩惱,不也是這樣?或許這些煩惱就像是那些番茄汁一樣,是你自己用手把它們給舉起來的呢?」 有趣的經驗,對吧?
    最近我開始這樣的練習,一手舉起有重量的東西,一邊想著事情。手酸了,自然會放下手上的東西,看看有一天,我會不會也學到:心裡累了,就把心事也給放下來... ...
