[15] Section On Wisdom In The Sūtra Of The Buddha’s Bequeathed Teachings《佛遗教经》之智慧篇

十五、智慧
[15] Wisdom

【释迦牟尼佛】:汝等比丘,若有智慧,则无贪著。

[Śākyamuni Buddha]: You [and] other Bhikṣus, if having wisdom, [are] then without greedy attachment.

常自省察,不令有失,是则于我法中,能得解脱。若不尔者,既非道人,又非白衣,无所名也。

Constantly personally examining oneself, not leading [to] having faults, [this] is then relying on my Dharma within, able [to] attain liberation. If [there are] those not thus, [they are] already not [the] path’s persons [i.e. monastics], also not white-robed [laypersons], without those names.

实智慧者,则是度老病死海坚牢船也,亦是无明黑暗大明灯也,一切病者之良药也,伐烦恼树之利斧也。是故汝等,当以闻思修慧而自增益。

Those truly wise, are then strong [and] firm ships [for] delivering [from the] ocean [of] ageing, sickness [and] death, also are great bright lamps [in] ignorance’s darkness, good medicine of all those sick, [and] sharp axes that cut afflictions’ trees. Therefore, you [and] others, should with [the] wisdoms [of] listening, contemplation [and] cultivation, then personally increase [in] benefits.

若人有智慧之照,虽是肉眼,而是明见人也,是名智慧。

If people have [the] illumination of wisdom, although [they] are [with the] flesh eye, yet [they] are clearly seeing people. [These] are named [as teachings on] wisdom.
