【The Origin of Suffering】- The specific definitions of afflictions - A belief in the supremacy of ethnics and religious discipline 1 

9) A belief in the supremacy of ethics and religious discipline is an afflictive intelligence which observes an ethical discipline that renounces faulty ethical discipline, or a religious discipline which requires certain forms of dress, manner, speech, and physical behavior, as well as the mental and physical aggregates on the basis of which these forms of ethics and asceticism occur, and regards them as cleansing you of sin, freeing you from afflictions, and removing you from cyclic existence.】 

A belief in the supremacy of ethics and religious discipline, this is another one. It is "an afflictive intelligence which observes an ethical discipline that renounces faulty ethical discipline." The ethical disciplines that the Buddha has explained to us, he has his reasons for doing so. Why did the Buddha stipulate ethical disciplines? He is telling us that if you do this, you will obtain this kind of effect. If you wish to obtain this kind of effect, then you must observe these ethical disciplines. Between these, there is an inevitable and accurate cause and effect relationship. But this religious discipline that you observe, ah, I am sorry about this! These are incorrect, these should not be done. Hence these should be renounced, they are faulty. So based on these incorrectly set ethics, you would act and set rules accordingly. You will follow to practice the incorrect ethical disciplines.

希求解脱 : 烦恼别相-戒禁取 1

戒禁取者,谓缘坏戒,可舍之戒,及诸行状轨则,身语定转,所有邪禁及缘彼等所依之蕴,见为能净罪恶,能解烦恼,能出生死,染慧为性。

戒禁取呢,是另外一个,“谓缘坏戒,可舍之戒”,佛告诉我们的戒,他有他的道理。佛为什么制那个戒?说你这样做,那么将来得到这样的果,因为你要得到这样的果,所以你现在要应该持这样的戒,彼此间有它的必然的这个因果正确的关系。现在你这个戒啊,对不起!不对的,这个不应该的,所以可舍的,是坏的。然后呢根据你不正确的这种制定的戒,这样地去行为、轨则,然后你照着它去做,这个所有的邪的禁戒等等。
