觀空捷徑　林鈺堂 簡繁轉換 - 繁體

空性定義即無我，循理修契不待言；
多番解析成曲折，捷徑依然在直趨。

跋

陳上師曾作〈論觀空性之捷徑〉（見《曲肱齋文四集》），昭示無我為觀空之捷徑。就定義而言，空性即無我，因此於邏輯上，實無庸再加置啄。但在佛法理論上，有多種分析的漸進解說，修行人循之可能落於迂曲，故需加以提醒。

Short Cut to Attaining Sunyata　Yutang Lin

By definition Sunyata means non-self;
To practice accordingly is only natural.
Complex analyses yield devious routes;
Direct approach remains the short cut.

Comment:

Yogi Chen composed "The Shortest Path to Sunyata" to illustrate that practicing non-self is the short cut to realizing Sunyata. By definition Sunyata means non-self, hence logically there is no need to say anything further about it. However, in Buddhism there are various theories on Sunyata that are analytical and gradual approaches to its comprehension. Following such theories a practitioner may pursue a roundabout path, therefore there was need to emphasize this point.
