精神食粮 Food for Tought

物质快乐与精神快乐

所谓听觉、嗅觉、味觉、触觉，这些外在感官的满足是来自世俗、物质的食粮；

而最高的喜悦，则是来自不受物欲干摄的宁静心灵，它是由法食所满足的。

Being full in terms of physical sensations-sounds, smells, tastes, and feelings-is to be fullof worldly food;

But being filled with the highestjoy – which comes from a peaceful mind freefrom the disturbance of sense-object-is to befull of the food of the Dhamma.

生命的目的

不论以世俗的角度或「法」的角度来看，生命的目的在于达到文明最高的境界，因此，生命必须汲取世俗的和「法」的两方面的食粮，如果仅有其一，那么生命是不完整的。

The goal of this life is to reach the loftiestlevels of what it means to be civilized, both inworldly terms and in Dhammic terms. Life,therefore, requires both worldly food andDhammic food; if you partake of only one ofthese, then life is merely half full.
