【The Twelve Factors of Dependent-Arising】- you are bound tightly to clinging
The former teachers say, "I would rather not be awakened for 1000 years than to go astray for one day's worth of time." This means that you would rather not become awakened for 1000 years. But you definitely do not want to go astray for even one day. What does this mean? This is to say that if you have gone down the wrong path, that is very dangerous, very dangerous! If you do what is right slowly and you slowly figure your way in, even if it takes 1000 years, as long as you keep at it, there will be a day when you will be awakened. There will be a time when you can resolve the problem. But if you go down the wrong path, then you will never be able to figure it out!
It would seem that this case is not relevant to us. But in fact, the real intended meaning of this is that every one of us incurs this fault at present. This is because we are under the control of our own consciousness. What is the characteristic of this consciousness? The consciousness has the ability to cling, to cling on to what we have grasped. So, once you have focused on an object, after you have focused on it, you will naturally develop clinging without awareness. You will feel that is the way it is. Hence this type of clinging is divided into two aspects. One aspect of which is a logical one, the affliction of the view. The other aspect is an emotional one, the affliction of the emotion. You are bound tightly to it.

希求解脱 : 死在执著里面
祖师们说:“宁愿千年不悟,不要一日错路。”就是你宁愿你一千年不开悟,不要一天走错。这个话怎么讲呢?就是说,如果你走错了以后,那个非常危险、非常危险!你在这儿慢慢地做对了,慢慢地摸进去,哪怕一千年,你只要做,总有开悟的时候,总有解决的时候;万一你走错了,那永远摸不到!
那么在这种情况之下,好像跟我们了不相干,实际上这句话真正的意思,就是我们眼前每一个人都犯了这个毛病。因为我们在识心的这个控制之下—识心的特质是什么?它就是识就是能执,执所执的,当你缘所缘的,缘到了以后,你自自然然产生不知不觉的执着,你就觉得这个样。于是这个执着分两方面,一个是理智的见烦恼,一个是情绪的思烦恼,你死死地死在这个里边。
