文／佛光星雲（1927-）

外面再美的景致，無法使我們真正的休心息慮。

禪，教我們往心內探索，使我們找回久被遺忘的性靈，重新和它握手言歡。

禪，是一場內在的革命，為我們贏回如香草的悲心，滿月的慧心，金剛的願心，雲水的捨心。

Rediscover Your Original Nature

Venerable Master Hsing Yun ( 1927- )

English translation: Venerable Zhi Yue

No matter how beautiful the scenery outside, it will never cause us to truly stop and reflect upon ourselves.

The practice of Chan teaches us to look into our hearts; it allows us to rediscover and to be reacquainted with our forgotten nature.

The practice of Chan revolutionizes the mind; it allows us to achieve a mind of compassion, wisdom, vow, and equanimity.
