72A 11’21” Vol 9 of Lamrim Commentary P258 L2 Master Jih-Chang’s Discourse

Hence, "pleasure does not exist naturally, independently of the removal of suffering." This is because when the suffering is gradually reducing, this feeling will arise as the suffering is being removed. Hence, this [pleasantness] is not its real nature. The real nature of it is absolutely not pleasant. The nature of this is absolutely suffering. It will immediately give us an actual event to explain this: for instance, you could keep walking, keep walking for a long time, going through great distance...and then it says this next as suffering.

For example, if you suffer because of too much walking, a pleasant state of mind arises when you sit down.

Say you have walked for a long time and if you are told to temporarily stop and sit for a while, you will feel so comfortable and so happy at that moment! What is that?

希求解脱 : 乐受是苦的渐熄灭位 2

所以“全无不待除苦所显”,因为这是苦渐渐减少,所以当苦除的时候显出来的,不是它本性,本性绝对没有快乐的,本质上面绝对是苦的。马上用一个事实来说明:譬如说你呀一直走,走得很长,走得很多的路,下面说,以为苦。


譬如太走为苦,略为住息遂生乐觉。

跑了很久以后,暂时叫你停一下、坐一下,唉呀,觉得那时候好舒服、好快乐!那是什么?
