《181》阿姜 查听到他的一位弟子在诵心经，当他结束后，阿姜 查说：「无空亦无菩萨。」他于是问：「那经从何来？」弟子回答：「据说是佛陀说的。」阿姜 查说：「可是没有佛陀啊！」后来他说：「心经是在谈甚深的智慧，超越一切的世俗。没有了它们(世俗)，我们哪还能教导他人呢？对事物而言，我们必须给它名字，不是吗？」

 Ajahn Chah listened to one of his disciples recite the Heart Sutra. When he had finished, Ajahn Chah said, "No emptiness either… no bodhisatta." He then asked, "Where did the sutra come from?" "It’s reputed to have been spoken by the Buddha," the follower replied. "No Buddha," retorted Ajahn Chah. Then he said, "This is talking about deep wisdom beyond all conventions. How could we teach without them? We have to have names for things, isn’t that so?"
