Q:Have you ever looked at the Altar Sutra ofthe 6thPatriarch,HuiNeng?
Ajahn chah : HuiNeng's wisdom is very keen. It is very profound teaching, not easyfor beginners to understand. But if you practice with our discipline and with patience,if you practice not-clinging, you will eventually understand. Once I had adisciple who stayed in a grass-roofed hut. It rained often that rainy season andone day a strong wind blew off half the roof. He did not bother to fix it, justlet it rain in. Several days passed and I asked him about his hut. He said he waspracticingnot-clinging.
This is not-clinging without wisdom. It is about the same as the equanimity of awater buffalo. If you live a good life and live simply, if youare patient and unselfish,you will understand the wisdom of Hui Neng. THE TEACHINGS OF AJAHN CHAH
