「本来无一物，何处惹尘埃。」 ——禅宗境界
— Zen purity
📖 释义 Annotation
「一尘不染」出自六祖慧能的著名偈语。神秀偈说「时时勤拂拭，勿使惹尘埃」——需要不断擦拭才能保持清净。慧能则说「本来无一物，何处惹尘埃」——本性本来清净，根本没有尘埃可染。这是禅宗「顿悟」与「渐修」之争的经典表达。「一尘不染」后来成为形容内心清净、不受外界污染的常用语，也用来形容环境的极度洁净。
'Not a speck of dust stained' comes from Sixth Patriarch Huineng's famous verse. Shenxiu said 'constantly wipe it clean, don't let dust collect' — gradual practice. Huineng said 'originally there is nothing — where can dust collect?' — sudden realization that the original nature is already pure. This became the classic expression of the gradual vs. sudden debate in Zen.
💡 当代启示 Modern Application
不需要拼命地「修理」自己——你的本性本来就是清净的。「一尘不染」的深意是：与其不断地与缺点斗争，不如回到本心，认识那个本来就没有缺点的自己。
You don't need to frantically 'fix' yourself — your original nature is already pure. The deeper meaning is: instead of constantly fighting flaws, return to the original mind and recognize the self that was never flawed.
