認知的方式與局限
若問「般若智」、「真如」、「佛」等概念的關係到底是怎麼的？其中一個可能的回答是：「佛是具有般若智能證真如的覺悟者！」 ─ 這看來是一個能得滿分的答案。「佛」是主體，「般若智」是一種認知的能力，「真如」是對境。1 但問題就出在此處，因為它實在太簡單了。然我要問的，它們三者是三還是一？它們其中之一能脫離其餘的單獨存在嗎？

旅遊觀感
在英國，我看到慾望與恐懼所交織的歷史；在西班牙，我看到的是兩者在宗教升華後的一種展現。
中道
中道本有，不偏左右難求
態度
對人，要有情； 對事，要講理； 對任務，要用策略。 且後者只能在體現前兩者的價值，才有意義。
聖嚴法師：智慧與慈悲
擁有智慧，縱然尚未脫離煩惱，也不致被煩惱所困惑； 擁有慈悲，縱然身處在魔鬼群中，也不見一個敵人。
Delusion
Delusion is the mind’s tendency to seek premature closure about something. It is the quality of mind that imposes a definition on things and then mistakes the definition for the actual experience.

《解深密經》心意識思想分析
唯識學所依據的大乘經典有六部，分別為《解深密經》、《大方廣佛華嚴經》、《如來出現功德經》、《大乘阿毗達磨經》、《楞嚴經》和《厚嚴經》。其中最根本及最重要的可說是《解深密經》，是唯識學的思想的源流。 它在整個瑜伽行派思想形成的過程中，扮演著抉擇歸納以至理論奠基的工作。因此，要全面地了解唯識學的發展，《解深密經》是其中一個必須跨過的門檻。誠如趙國森所言：
「由龍樹提出的「假名」，經《瑜珈師地論》所立的假性自說，到《解深密經》所談「遍計所執相」，再到《攝大乘論》所講的「遍計所執相」等幾個相關觀念的轉變，若缺乏了《解深密經》等早期的文獻資料，將難以會通「假名」與後來「遍計所執性」二者在思想上的關係。」

How does Buddha set free? – Angulimala
One of the most feared criminals of the Buddha’s time, Angulimala distinguished himself by his habit of garlanding himself with the served fingers of his murdered victims.
