【The Origin of Suffering】- The specific definitions of afflictions - A belief in the supremacy of ethics and religious discipline 2
For the ordinary people now, not to mention the ones who have no faith in the Buddha, even those who take faith in the Buddha may not necessarily value the unexcelled wisdom of the Buddha. They will actually look at what the diviner says, what the doctor says, and what the mundane world people say, "Ah, this is what the doctor says." This is much like when little kids go to elementary schools and say, "Oh, this is what the teacher says." Ah! It is as if what they say is infallible. This is how we are. What is this exactly? These all come down to the belief in the supremacy of ethics and religious discipline. These are all very well not beyond the scope of that. Therefore a way of describing this normally would be, "To say something is the cause when it is not. To say something is the effect when it is not." The cause is not this, but you got it wrong. For instance, sometimes we would get sick. Ah-yo, we would pay great attention to nutrition and all sorts of things. Isn't that right? It is one of the reasons. That's not wrong. This is because sickness of the body would often come from the imbalance of the four elements. You will need medicine for the imbalance of the four elements. However, the reason for this sickness is not only limited to that. This is what we should understand. We should understand that. Furthermore, the imbalance of the four elements is influenced by both the body and the mind. If you only focus on one part, I am sorry! It would be wrong. This is a belief in the supremacy of ethics and religious discipline.

希求解脱 : 烦恼别相-戒禁取 2
我们现在的普通人，这个啊，不要说不信佛的，信了佛的人对于佛的无上的妙智不一定重视，倒反而看那个算命先生的人、医生、乃至于世间的人，“哎呀，这个医生怎么讲的。”像小孩子一样，跑到小学里边说：“哦，老师怎么讲的。”啊！那个是好像金科玉律，我们就是这样。这个是什么呢？戒禁取，不外乎。所以说，一个叫通常说“非因计因，非果计果”，这个不是这样的原因，你弄错了。譬如说我们现在生了病了，哎哟，讲究这个营养啊，这么一大堆，是不是？它是原因之一倒是的确没有错，因为身通常病是由于四大不调，四大不调是要医药，但是病并不仅仅是受这个，这种我们应该了解的，我们应该了解的。再说四大不调有受生理、心理的影响，你执着了这个一部分，对不起！这个都是错的，这个是戒禁取。
