To help others in the most effective

way possible we have to be

fully enlightened buddhas. Even to

help others in vast and extensive ways

we need to have attained one of the

levels of a bodhisattva, that is, to

have had the experience of a direct,

non-conceptual reality of voidness

and to have achieved the powers of

extra-sensory perception. Nonetheless,

there are many levels of help

we can offer others.

要能極有效的幫助別人,

我們必須都要成為完全開悟的佛陀.

即使要能以廣大而深遠的方式助人,

我們也必須要成就某個程度的菩薩道,

也就是直接經驗過 ’空無’ 的實相

而不再是概念性的體認,

也才能成就自己超感官的覺知力.

雖說如此, 我們還是可以

在不同的程度上來助人的.
