【The Varieties of Karma】- Body and mind are not separate from each other - 1

I was once sick with flu. When I was sick, there happened to be this person travelling with us on a pilgrimage to this particular mountain. Among the fellows in this pilgrimage, there was a pharmacist. He brought along medicines with him. So he said, what did he say? How did he say it? I seemed to have forgotten. It was something like, "One big pill and two small pills, drink more water and sleep more." He said these things. That was it. And that this was supposed to be a medicine shown to have great efficacy against the flu. At the time, I was so sick, ah, my nose kept running. Just like that. So he gave them to me and I took a few pills. That same day, they went out and I stayed behind. I took the pills and kept sleeping. Sure enough, by nightfall I was feeling fine. Ah, I thought I have never recovered from the flu that fast. So I really had faith [in the medicine]. After the pilgrimage, we returned to where we began. One time, by chance we started to talk about this. He said, what were the "one big pill and two small pills?" The small pills were Vitamin B and the big pill was Vitamin C. I was so surprised when I heard this! What? I said, "I take this every day. But when I took them, my flu (or cold) never recovered like that." But it was because of what he said that day and I really took it to heart. It was certainly that way, absolutely true, absolutely true! Therefore, there are many Buddhists now, they would claim that the mind...we should know that what the teaching truly explains is that the body and the mind are not separate from each other, they are not separate from each other.

业果 : 身心分不开-1

有一次我感冒,感冒了以后,有一个,正好我们出去,一起去到一个地方去朝山,朝山的同行当中有一个,这个是药剂师,他随身带着。他就讲,什么?这个怎么念的,我忘记掉了,什么“一大两小,多吃开水,多睡觉。”下面几句话,就是这样,那个治感冒是百发百中的药。那时我感冒得啊,哎呀,那天鼻涕什么流,这样,他就给我吃,吃几个。然后他们那天出去去了,我就没去,我在那里吃完了以后,然后睡了一觉蒙头,果然没错,到了晚上就好了。哎呀,我说我以前感冒从来没有这么快好过,很相信。以后等到完了以后,回来到了那个地方,有一次偶然谈,他说“一大两小”是什么东西呀?小的是维他命B,大的是维他命C,我听了大为惊讶!什么?我说我天天吃这个东西,但是平常吃这个东西,感冒就是不好。他那一天就告诉你呀,然后你心里面想。的的确确是这样,千真万确,千真万确!所以现在很多学佛的人,居然心理上面说这个……我们要晓得,佛法真正讲的身心是分不开的,身心是分不开的。
