📜 原文 Original Text
「六根清净方为道，退步原来是向前。」 ——佛教「六根」概念
— Buddhist six sense roots
📖 释义 Annotation
「六根清净」是佛教修行的重要境界。「六根」指眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意六种感知器官和功能。「清净」指六根不被外境所染着——眼睛看到美色不贪恋，耳朵听到恶言不嗔恨，心意面对诱惑不动摇。六根是众生与外界接触的门户，也是烦恼生起的根源。当六根清净时，内心就不会被外境所牵动，修行才能得力。《法华经》说「六根清净，得无量功德」。
'The six sense roots are pure' is an important Buddhist practice stage. The 'six roots' are eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind — the six sense faculties. 'Pure' means they are not stained by external conditions — not craving beauty, not angered by harsh words, not shaken by temptation. When the six roots are pure, the mind is not pulled by external conditions, and practice can progress.
