    就我所知，在中國，許多深刻的文學著作，都是聖人們的修心筆記，有些是自述的心得，有些則是弟子們的紀錄。這些偉大的聖人，有些在俗世中過著家庭生活，有些則隱居山林過著出家生活，他們時時刻刻都很努力，不敢懈怠，他們的人生是那麼美好！在偶然的機會下，我有幸從Michael Mokeeb的文章《First impression of a foreigner about Taiwan》裡讀到了Barlaam和Josaphat的故事：
    「Joaseph年輕的時期非常像佛陀，簡直是一模一樣。Joaseph的父親是印度王Avenir，對他極度的保護不讓他受到任何傷害，連一般百姓的疾苦也不讓他知道，他甚至不知道什麼是老、病、死，聖人Joaseph就好像生活在天堂，甚至他以為他的僕人永遠健康與年輕美麗；在他旅遊中遇到一位得到可怕疾病的老人，他的僕人無法再隱瞞任何事實，只好告訴他世上有苦難、疾病、死亡……..等等，Joaseph像是受到極大的驚嚇與哀傷與壓力，覺得自己虛度人生，活在另一個世界。那時上帝差派聖者Barlaam僧侶從曠野來，Joaseph因此認識基督耶穌並且了解永生，Joaseph因此接受耶穌基督為救主Barlaam為他受洗，因著Joaseph的緣故他的父親和人民都改信基督教，而他也放棄所有的榮華富貴及王位，將王位給他最忠誠的僕人，Joaseph 則與Barlaam一同回到曠野去，在那裡度過他的餘生，他在曠野修行時也感受到天堂永生之路。」

    這個故事讓我感覺基督教靈修生活十分珍貴，我很想知道：
    Barlaam如何指導Joaseph在曠野中過修行生活？
    和佛陀在修心見性的歷程一樣嗎？
    在曠野中的修行人留給後代什麼樣的教導呢？

    Just as I know, in China, the majority of great literatures are biographies of holy people which also preserve the precious teachings about the enlightenment of mind. Some of them were married, some of them retreated in the desert. They struggled in every single moment and had their lives so wonderful! Few weeks ago, I had a fortune to read the article named 《First impression of a foreigner about Taiwan》by Micheal Mokeeb :

    “…The answer can be found in the life of st. Joaseph. It is very interesting that his youth was very similar to Buddha’s one, almost the same. Joaseph’s father, Indian king Avenir protected him from any kind of sorrow, he did not let his son know anything about common people’s suffering: diseases, old age, death. St. Joaseph lived like in the paradise”. Even all his servants always were supposed to be young, healthy and beautiful. But once during a trip he has met a man with an awful disease, and after that a very old man. And his servants could! not hide the truth any more, they’ve told him about suffering, diseases, death. Joaseph has been totally distressed ad full of sorrow. He thought: oh, the whole this life is just a vanity, - and is there any other life beyond it? At that time the Lord has sent to him st. Varlaham, a monk form the wilderness. And he’s taught Joaseph Christianity, telling about Christ - the eternal life. Joaseph has received st. Varlaham’s preaching and has been baptized. Finally st. Joaseph has turned his father and all their people to Christianity. And after that he’s refused all earthly power, riches, fame and pleasure, turned over his kingdom one faithful servant, and has gone with st. Varlaham to the wilderness. He lived there till the rest of his life. And by means of ascetic monastic life in the wilderness he’s achieved the eternal life in the kingdom of heaven…”

    This story made me aware of the preciousness of Christian Spirituality. I really want to know more about that:
    How Varlaham guided Joaseph to practice the spirituality in desert?
    Is it a process to go inward just as Siddhattha?
    What teachings from the holy monks in desert were left for posterity?

    許多人在世俗中生活
    在曠野中修道的僧侶
    對我們這樣的在家人
    有什麼指導呢?

  4. Comment by Lucia on 15 February 2008:

    Ecclesiastes made Solomon and his conception of life known to us. May I know more about ：

    「Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher; all is vanity.」（Ecclesiastes 12：8）
    「the end of the matter; all hath been heard: fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole of man.」（Ecclesiastes 12：14）

    Does it mean that only when we seriously keep the commandments, we could have spirituality and go on the way to Theosis ? If not, it would be impossible to achieve the purpose of life —- Theosis, in this regard, the preacher said “Vanity of vanities, all is vanity” ?

    傳道書（Ecclesiastes）道出了羅門王對人生的想法，我們想要對它瞭解更多，尤其是下文的意義：
    傳道人說：「虛空之虛空；萬事都虛空。」（Ecclesiastes 12：8）
    「上帝的要敬畏；他的誡命你要遵守：這就是人的一切」（Ecclesiastes 12：14）
    他的體會是不是，只有過著守誡的生活，才能開始靈修生活，才有機會達到「天人合一」（Theosis）？如果不守誡，永遠無法達到「天人合一」（Theosis），所以才會說萬事都虛空？

  5. Comment by fr. jonah on 19 February 2008:

    no, has nothing to do with the commandments. theosis is a gift of god, not something that we ‘earn’ by good deeds. it is an action of the lover. the good deeds help us to accept the gift.
    不，這和誡命無關。聖化是神的贈禮，並非我們以好行為就能”贏得”的。聖化是至愛者所為。好行為僅僅幫助我們領受這贈禮。

    and , yes, you are very correct. if everything is Vanity of vanities, not only we can not have any theosis , we can not survive also. better to die.
    你的觀點非常正確。如果萬物只是虛空的虛空，我們不但無法聖化，連存活也有問題，還不如死去。

    we should understand the context of the Preacher. in Hebrew thought for the first time the problem of theodicy is examined. the preacher searching the meaning of life -for he first time - he finds that human life , AS IT IS, BASED ON HUMAN CONDITIONS ONLY, is vanity. but he can not find a solution. still believes in god, but he discovers the conflicts in life. as many centuries after , discovered the anxiety the existential philosophy in our days, the psychology, etc… their is solution, gradually appearing in Job book (to trust god) and finally and completely in Jesus Christ, specially that in the church we receive the Holy communion, the most valuable thing.
    我們應該了解傳道者的背景脈絡。這是第一次，在希伯來人的思維中，神義論受到檢驗。傳道者尋找生命的意義，因為這是他第一次，發現人類的生命，如果本質上僅僅立基於人類的條件，將是空虛的。他找不到出路，仍然相信神，但已發覺生命的衝突。就如同許多世紀之後，我們的時代，存在主義哲學和各種心理學所揭露的人類焦慮。解決之道是有的，在稍後的約伯記中逐漸顯明(信任神)，並且最終完全參與在基督中，尤其是在教會裡，我們領受聖餐，世間最寶貴的贈禮。

    but let me point out, that even for non Christians, the power of love, can make life ultimate valuable, not vanity at all. the Preacher express a very narrow point of view. probably because in the end of his life he lose the grace of god, (he had thousands of women..). the pure love, the self sacrificing love can give us the inner witness that life is the most beautiful thing, even the death has some meaning, making life so unique. the life of a beautiful flower , specially given from love, even
    the flower vanish so quickly,a simple smile or a tear, a kiss or some music, keep the universe alive .
    但容我指出，即使對不信仰基督的人們，愛的力量，也能成就生命的終極價值，絕不空虛。傳道者表達的觀點十分狹隘，可能是因為在生命的末期，他喪失了神的恩典(他擁有幾千名妻妾)。純淨的愛，自我犧牲的愛，能夠給予我們內在的見證，領悟生命是最美好的，即使死亡，也有某些意義，都使生命變得如此獨特。美麗花朵的生命，即使片刻凋零，只要是來自愛的贈禮，都和一個單純的微笑，眼淚，親吻，音樂一樣，能使宇宙充滿生命。

  6. Comment by students on 21 February 2008:

    Does it mean that Holy Communion can trnasfer the temporal into the eternal, so everything in this temporal life becomes meaningful?

    Does it mean that when we become Christians and receive the Holy Communion, our relationship with others will become eternal?

    We receive the Holy Communion,and we become God’s body.
    But many people don’t know God and don’t receive the Holy Communion, are they out of God’s body???

    當信徒領受聖餐禮，是否意謂著，聖餐禮將化短暫為永恆，因此所有在今世的短暫生命都變得有意義?
    當信徒領受聖餐禮，是否意謂著，我們和其他人的關係，將成為永恆?
    我們領受聖餐禮，我們成為神的身體。
    但有許多人並不認識神，也未領受聖餐禮，難道他們就在神的身體之外嗎?

    yes. i would say makes the eternal to be now and here. and finally eternity is not a matter of time only. it is a matter of relationship.

    是的，但更進一步，是使此時此刻成為永恆。另外，永恆並非只和時間有關，永恆和關係有關。

    time separates us. we count time from how separated we are. but eternity is an endless loving relationship, and this is established by the holy communion.

    時間使人們分離。we count time from how separated we are。但永恆是無止盡的愛的關係，建立於聖餐禮的神聖共融之中。

    for the people who do not receive, for the time being, they receive grace from us, from the liturgy. the Christian does not receive the holy communion only for himself. the holy communion is like the heat, which makes very hot the heater, but radiates also in the room and warms all the people.

    那些未領受聖餐禮的人們，暫時地，透過領受聖餐禮的我們，來領受神的恩典。基督徒們並不是為了自己領受聖餐。聖餐就好像熱力，使包含它的暖爐加熱，同時也放射熱能到房間中，溫暖其中所有人。

    we hope, and we pray at the second coming of Jesus, in the end of history, all people to want, to choose to receive the holy communion for ever

    我們希望，我們祈禱，在歷史的盡頭，耶穌第二次降臨，所有的人們，都能渴望，並選擇永遠領受聖餐禮，與神共融。
