修行以持戒为本（中英双语）

修行佛法，要以持戒为根本。持戒可以远离非法，远离非礼作意，持戒可以清净身口意三业，使散乱的心安定下来，逐渐将身心安住于禅定中，智慧自然任运而生，有了清净无漏的智慧，才能真正解脱生死轮回之苦。

To practice the Dharma, it is essential to observe the precepts. Observing the precepts can keep the practitioners away from illegality and indecent attention, purify the karmas of body, speech and mind, stabilize the discomposure and gradually settle the body and mind in meditation. As a result, wisdom naturally comes into being and only with the purification and non-defilement （anāśrava） of wisdom can the suffering of the rebirth of life and death be truly relieved.
