The Gospel of Thomas

Translated by Thomas O. Lambdin

(Visit the Gospel of Thomas Collection for additional information)

These are the secret sayings which the living Jesus spoke and which Didymos Judas Thomas wrote down.

(1) And he said, "Whoever finds the interpretation of these sayings will not experience death."

（米）：耶穌說，誰懂了真理，就沒有生和死的糾結。

(2) Jesus said, "Let him who seeks continue seeking until he finds. When he finds, he will become troubled. When he becomes troubled, he will be astonished, and he will rule over the All."

（米）：讓他們追求吧，當他們找到了，他們還是沒找到，感到ＴＲＯＵＢＬＥＤ，等到他們感到ＴＲＯＵＢＬＥＤ了，他們大吃一驚，原來什麽都不要追求，他已經是世界了。

(3) Jesus said, "If those who lead you say to you, 'See, the kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the kingdom is inside of you, and it is outside of you. When you come to know yourselves, then you will become known, and you will realize that it is you who are the sons of the living father. But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty and it is you who are that poverty."

（米）：耶穌說：如果有人說，上帝的天國在天上，那麽鳥兒比你去的早。如果有人說，上帝的天國在海裏，魚一定比你去的快。其實，上帝的天國在你心裏。在你裏麵！　你會發現你自己就是上帝的兒子。但如果你不知道，不發現，你隻能停留在貧乏中了。

(4) Jesus said, "The man old in days will not hesitate to ask a small child seven days old about the place of life, and he will live. For many who are first will become last, and they will become one and the same."

（米）：一個老人要知道生活在哪裏，最該問的是一個７歲的孩子。我的理解是孩子是最沒有欲望的，最不貪婪的，他們無欲無求，生活在ＰＲＥＳＥＮＴ　ＮＯＷ　，所以真正理解生活。

(5) Jesus said, "Recognize what is in your sight, and that which is hidden from you will become plain to you . For there is nothing hidden which will not become manifest."

（米）觀看你眼前的。任何秘密都已經展現在你眼前了。

(6) His disciples questioned him and said to him, "Do you want us to fast? How shall we pray? Shall we give alms? What diet shall we observe?"
Jesus said, "Do not tell lies, and do not do what you hate, for all things are plain in the sight of heaven. For nothing hidden will not become manifest, and nothing covered will remain without being uncovered."

（米）：不要做你不願做得事，比如你不願齋戒，就不要強行做。因為所有的一切都是天堂，所有神聖的都在你麵前了，沒有任何隱藏和秘密。他的意思很清楚，你可以享受生活，做你喜歡做的東西和事情。真理已經展現（ＭＡＮＩＦＥＳＴ）在你眼前了。

(7) Jesus said, "Blessed is the lion which becomes man when consumed by man; and cursed is the man whom the lion consumes, and the lion becomes man."

（米）：我沒有理解這句話。你可以補充。

(8) And he said, "The man is like a wise fisherman who cast his net into the sea and drew it up from the sea full of small fish. Among them the wise fisherman found a fine large fish. He threw all the small fish back into the sea and chose the large fish without difficulty. Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear."

(9) Jesus said, "Now the sower went out, took a handful (of seeds), and scattered them. Some fell on the road; the birds came and gathered them up. Others fell on the rock, did not take root in the soil, and did not produce ears. And others fell on thorns; they choked the seed(s) and worms ate them. And others fell on the good soil and it produced good fruit: it bore sixty per measure and a hundred and twenty per measure."

(10) Jesus said, "I have cast fire upon the world, and see, I am guarding it until it blazes."

(11) Jesus said, "This heaven will pass away, and the one above it will pass away. The dead are not alive, and the living will not die. In the days when you consumed what is dead, you made it what is alive. When you come to dwell in the light, what will you do? On the day when you were one you became two. But when you become two, what will you do?"

(12) The disciples said to Jesus, "We know that you will depart from us. Who is to be our leader?"
Jesus said to them, "Wherever you are, you are to go to James the righteous, for whose sake heaven and earth came into being."

(13) Jesus said to his disciples, "Compare me to someone and tell me whom I am like."
Simon Peter said to him, "You are like a righteous angel."
Matthew said to him, "You are like a wise philosopher."
Thomas said to him, "Master, my mouth is wholly incapable of saying whom you are like."
Jesus said, "I am not your master. Because you have drunk, you have become intoxicated from the bubbling spring which I have measured out."

（米），這裏，耶穌清楚地否認自己是什麽大師，因為他的弟子還沉湎在迷惑中，要頂禮膜拜一個大師，神人。耶穌堅決否認。耶穌要我們自己發現真理，都在我們裏麵。

And he took him and withdrew and told him three things. When Thomas returned to his companions, they asked him, "What did Jesus say to you?"
Thomas said to them, "If I tell you one of the things which he told me, you will pick up stones and throw them at me; a fire will come out of the stones and burn you up."

（米）：很好笑，托馬斯不敢轉達耶穌的話，怕別人不理解，砸了他。

(14) Jesus said to them, "If you fast, you will give rise to sin for yourselves; and if you pray, you will be condemned; and if you give alms, you will do harm to your spirits. When you go into any land and walk about in the districts, if they receive you, eat what they will set before you, and heal the sick among them. For what goes into your mouth will not defile you, but that which issues from your mouth - it is that which will defile you."

（米）這段很重要，耶穌強調了任何有私欲為動機的齋戒和禱告都是有害的，都在浪費時間。不如走進生活，社區，吃人家給你的食物，幫助人家，吃東西不會損害你，但從你口中說出的話，可能損害你。他的意思就是，要保持謙卑，少批評別人。好好的生活。

(15) Jesus said, "When you see one who was not born of woman, prostrate yourselves on your faces and worship him. That one is your father."

(16) Jesus said, "Men think, perhaps, that it is peace which I have come to cast upon the world. They do not know that it is dissension which I have come to cast upon the earth: fire, sword, and war. For there will be five in a house: three will be against two, and two against three, the father against the son, and the son against the father. And they will stand solitary."

(米）這段非常重要，他說，人們以為我會給世界帶來和平，他們不知道，和平不是我可以帶來的。世界會有各種衝突，戰爭，矛盾，兒子反對老子，２人對３人，或３人對２人的衝突。但我可以給你帶來的是安靜的心, DETACHED的心，入定的心。你可以麵對世界的紛亂，保持定心。

值得注意的是，耶穌知道弟子們以為他給世界帶來和平，但這是誤解。就算基督本人是平和的，但弟子們不一定平和，友善。唯一要做的就是和世界保持距離，參與生活，但保守SOLITARY，就是一個孤獨的心，更好的解釋就是一個定心。

我們看到了，耶穌一開始就預測了世界不可能靠信仰獲得和平，相反的，教徒們可以為教義的不同理解打的頭破血流。隻有訓練自己觀察自己心，保持SOLITARY（入定），真正的和平就在眼前了，注意，這個和平隻有入定的心自己看到了，外人看不到。盡管入定的人在做事，生活，外人以為他們有欲望，不定心。隻有入定的心自己知道。

(17) Jesus said, "I shall give you what no eye has seen and what no ear has heard and what no hand has touched and what has never occurred to the human mind."

（米）他的意思：真理是眼睛看不見的，耳朵聽不到的，手摸不著的。但我（耶穌）可以讓你知道。

(18) The disciples said to Jesus, "Tell us how our end will be."
Jesus said, "Have you discovered, then, the beginning, that you look for the end? For where the beginning is, there will the end be. Blessed is he who will take his place in the beginning; he will know the end and will not experience death."

（米）耶穌這是講哲理了。有人問他：“我們的結局是什麽？”。

耶穌說：“你們研究過開始嗎？開始的地方，就是你結局”，“當你理解了開始，你就知道了結局，你就超越了肉體的死亡。”。

我理解耶穌的意思，你根本就是一個ＥＧＯ＋ＭＩＮＤ的幻覺，你的本質沒有生和死，擔心這個幹嗎？你首先發現自己哪裏來的，就是耶穌說的ＢＥＧＩＮＮＩＮＧ，一切答案就清楚了，你沒有什麽死這個概念了。

(19) Jesus said, "Blessed is he who came into being before he came into being. If you become my disciples and listen to my words, these stones will minister to you. For there are five trees for you in Paradise which remain undisturbed summer and winter and whose leaves do not fall. Whoever becomes acquainted with them will not experience death."

（米）：有福的人就是發現自己還沒有出生就已經存在的人（being before came into being) ，然後他采用比喻說，天堂裏有５棵樹是屬於你的，它們不會枯萎，它們的葉子不會凋零，了解了這個，就不會體驗死亡了（他指的是肉體的死亡）。

耶穌的意思很清楚，真正的你是那不會凋零的樹，是永恒，是沒出生前就存在的。所以一旦你了解了這個事實，你就不會害怕死亡。你就不必要生死輪回了。

(20) The disciples said to Jesus, "Tell us what the kingdom of heaven is like."
He said to them, "It is like a mustard seed. It is the smallest of all seeds. But when it falls on tilled soil, it produces a great plant and becomes a shelter for birds of the sky."

（米）：耶穌說，上帝的天國就像最最渺小的芥末種子，當它落到斜坡土地，長大成數，讓萬物棲息。注意，耶穌強調了上帝的天國就是你心裏的種子，就在那裏。

(21) Mary said to Jesus, "Whom are your disciples like?"
He said, "They are like children who have settled in a field which is not theirs. When the owners of the field come, they will say, 'Let us have back our field.' They (will) undress in their presence in order to let them have back their field and to give it back to them. Therefore I say, if the owner of a house knows that the thief is coming, he will begin his vigil before he comes and will not let him dig through into his house of his domain to carry away his goods. You, then, be on your guard against the world. Arm yourselves with great strength lest the robbers find a way to come to you, for the difficulty which you expect will (surely) materialize. Let there be among you a man of understanding. When the grain ripened, he came quickly with his sickle in his hand and reaped it. Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear."

(22) Jesus saw infants being suckled. He said to his disciples, "These infants being suckled are like those who enter the kingdom."
They said to him, "Shall we then, as children, enter the kingdom?"
Jesus said to them, "When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside, and the above like the below, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female female; and when you fashion eyes in the place of an eye, and a hand in place of a hand, and a foot in place of a foot, and a likeness in place of a likeness; then will you enter the kingdom."

(23) Jesus said, "I shall choose you, one out of a thousand, and two out of ten thousand, and they shall stand as a single one."

(24) His disciples said to him, "Show us the place where you are, since it is necessary for us to seek it."
He said to them, "Whoever has ears, let him hear. There is light within a man of light, and he lights up the whole world. If he does not shine, he is darkness."

（米）：耶穌說：我在的地方就在每一個人裏麵。每一個人都有光明。但是如果他不發現光明，他就感到黑暗了。

(25) Jesus said, "Love your brother like your soul, guard him like the pupil of your eye."

(26) Jesus said, "You see the mote in your brother's eye, but you do not see the beam in your own eye. When you cast the beam out of your own eye, then you will see clearly to cast the mote from your brother's eye."

（米）人們常常看到別人的瑕疵，但看不到自己的光明。當你可以投射出自己的光明，別人的瑕疵就消失了。

所以我的理解是，不要老是從別人身上找問題，要首先了解自己，發現自己，當自己有光明了，整個世界就光明了。

(27) "If you do not fast as regards the world, you will not find the kingdom. If you do not observe the Sabbath as a Sabbath, you will not see the father."

(28) Jesus said, "I took my place in the midst of the world, and I appeared to them in flesh. I found all of them intoxicated; I found none of them thirsty. And my soul became afflicted for the sons of men, because they are blind in their hearts and do not have sight; for empty they came into the world, and empty too they seek to leave the world. But for the moment they are intoxicated. When they shake off their wine, then they will repent."

(29) Jesus said, "If the flesh came into being because of spirit, it is a wonder. But if spirit came into being because of the body, it is a wonder of wonders. Indeed, I am amazed at how this great wealth has made its home in this poverty."

(30) Jesus said, "Where there are three gods, they are gods. Where there are two or one, I am with him."

(31) Jesus said, "No prophet is accepted in his own village; no physician heals those who know him."

(32) Jesus said, "A city being built on a high mountain and fortified cannot fall, nor can it be hidden."

(33) Jesus said, "Preach from your housetops that which you will hear in your ear. For no one lights a lamp and puts it under a bushel, nor does he put it in a hidden place, but rather he sets it on a lampstand so that everyone who enters and leaves will see its light."

(34) Jesus said, "If a blind man leads a blind man, they will both fall into a pit."

(35) Jesus said, "It is not possible for anyone to enter the house of a strong man and take it by force unless he binds his hands; then he will (be able to) ransack his house."

(36) Jesus said, "Do not be concerned from morning until evening and from evening until morning about what you will wear."

(37) His disciples said, "When will you become revealed to us and when shall we see you?"
Jesus said, "When you disrobe without being ashamed and take up your garments and place them under your feet like little children and tread on them, then will you see the son of the living one, and you will not be afraid"

(38) Jesus said, "Many times have you desired to hear these words which I am saying to you, and you have no one else to hear them from. There will be days when you will look for me and will not find me."

(39) Jesus said, "The pharisees and the scribes have taken the keys of knowledge (gnosis) and hidden them. They themselves have not entered, nor have they allowed to enter those who wish to. You, however, be as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves."

(40) Jesus said, "A grapevine has been planted outside of the father, but being unsound, it will be pulled up by its roots and destroyed."

(41) Jesus said, "Whoever has something in his hand will receive more, and whoever has nothing will be deprived of even the little he has."

(42) Jesus said, "Become passers-by."

（米）：成為一個世界的旁觀者。

也就是說，觀察世界，觀察自己的思想，成為旁觀者，但不要介入。

(43) His disciples said to him, "Who are you, that you should say these things to us?"
"You do not realize who I am from what I say to you, but you have become like the Jews, for they (either) love the tree and hate its fruit (or) love the fruit and hate the tree."

（米）有人問耶穌，＂你到底是誰？”，耶穌回答：“當你還在愛恨交加的漩渦中折騰的時候，你是不會知道我是誰的”。注意，基督就算是光明，但迷惑的人在愛恨的河流裏沉浮，無法看清耶穌。

所以，你要脫離痛苦，就不要愛啊恨的，那是個無底洞。你要接受一切，沒有什麽喜歡和不喜歡，隻有存在，就ＯＫ。看到萬物都是真理，都是光明，你就理解耶穌了。

這句話和佛祖教導的：不要分別歧視一切，完全一個道理。

(44) Jesus said, "Whoever blasphemes against the father will be forgiven, and whoever blasphemes against the son will be forgiven, but whoever blasphemes against the holy spirit will not be forgiven either on earth or in heaven."

（米）你理解他的意思了嗎？天父是沒有的，你可以賭咒，天父的兒子也是沒有的，你也可以賭咒。但你不能賭咒永恒的意識（ＨＯＬＹ　ＳＰＩＲＩＴ），這是沒有好結果的。耶穌說的“不原諒”不是指懲罰，而是，如果你不理解真理的話，你會痛苦。因為你自己已經是真理了，但你否認，把ＥＧＯ當成是自己，所謂的“不原諒”就是你自找痛苦。

(45) Jesus said, "Grapes are not harvested from thorns, nor are figs gathered from thistles, for they do not produce fruit. A good man brings forth good from his storehouse; an evil man brings forth evil things from his evil storehouse, which is in his heart, and says evil things. For out of the abundance of the heart he brings forth evil things."

（米）：耶穌解釋的很清楚：善和惡都是從自己心裏來。所以心是最關鍵的地方。

(46) Jesus said, "Among those born of women, from Adam until John the Baptist, there is no one so superior to John the Baptist that his eyes should not be lowered (before him). Yet I have said, whichever one of you comes to be a child will be acquainted with the kingdom and will become superior to John."

(47) Jesus said, "It is impossible for a man to mount two horses or to stretch two bows. And it is impossible for a servant to serve two masters; otherwise, he will honor the one and treat the other contemptuously. No man drinks old wine and immediately desires to drink new wine. And new wine is not put into old wineskins, lest they burst; nor is old wine put into a new wineskin, lest it spoil it. An old patch is not sewn onto a new garment, because a tear would result."

(48) Jesus said, "If two make peace with each other in this one house, they will say to the mountain, 'Move Away,' and it will move away."

(49) Jesus said, "Blessed are the solitary and elect, for you will find the kingdom. For you are from it, and to it you will return."

（米）耶穌說，“隻有安靜才能找到天國，因為你是從那裏來的，你也要回到那裏”。

(50) Jesus said, "If they say to you, 'Where did you come from?', say to them, 'We came from the light, the place where the light came into being on its own accord and established itself and became manifest through their image.' If they say to you, 'Is it you?', say, 'We are its children, we are the elect of the living father.' If they ask you, 'What is the sign of your father in you?', say to them, 'It is movement and repose.'"

（米）：耶穌對弟子這麽說：“如果別人問你，‘你們從哪裏來？’，告訴他們，‘我們從光明中來’。如果別人問你，‘你中哪裏有光明的跡象？’，告訴他們, '我既是光明的運動，也是光明的居所’ ”。

注意，耶穌沒有說他自己是光明，他清楚地告訴弟子，每個人都是從光明中來的。他進一步強調，我們就是光明的運動，也是光明的居所，就是光明本身。

記得我剛才把真理比喻成光明。所以，這個光明就是真理，就是上帝。

耶穌解說的很清楚，和佛祖解說的一樣清楚，但後人很少真正理解這些話的含義。

(51) His disciples said to him, "When will the repose of the dead come about, and when will the new world come?"
He said to them, "What you look forward to has already come, but you do not recognize it."

（米）：有人問耶穌：“死後的安息地在哪裏？來世再哪裏？" 耶穌回答：“你要找的地方就在你眼前，但你不認識它”。

我們清楚了吧：耶穌沒有要你去追求天國，他要你認識到目前就是天國了，哪裏都不要去，他在你的心裏，當你看到了心裏的天國，周圍就是天堂。

(52) His disciples said to him, "Twenty-four prophets spoke in Israel, and all of them spoke in you."
He said to them, "You have omitted the one living in your presence and have spoken (only) of the dead."

(53) His disciples said to him, "Is circumcision beneficial or not?"
He said to them, "If it were beneficial, their father would beget them already circumcised from their mother. Rather, the true circumcision in spirit has become completely profitable."

(54) Jesus said, "Blessed are the poor, for yours is the kingdom of heaven."

（米）窮人有福了，天國在你心裏。注意，不要字麵理解，這個窮指的是無欲無求。

(55) Jesus said, "Whoever does not hate his father and his mother cannot become a disciple to me. And whoever does not hate his brothers and sisters and take up his cross in my way will not be worthy of me."

(56) Jesus said, "Whoever has come to understand the world has found (only) a corpse, and whoever has found a corpse is superior to the world."

(57) Jesus said, "The kingdom of the father is like a man who had good seed. His enemy came by night and sowed weeds among the good seed. The man did not allow them to pull up the weeds; he said to them, 'I am afraid that you will go intending to pull up the weeds and pull up the wheat along with them.' For on the day of the harvest the weeds will be plainly visible, and they will be pulled up and burned."

(58) Jesus said, "Blessed is the man who has suffered and found life."

(59) Jesus said, "Take heed of the living one while you are alive, lest you die and seek to see him and be unable to do so."

(60) a Samaritan carrying a lamb on his way to Judea. He said to his disciples, "That man is round about the lamb."
They said to him, "So that he may kill it and eat it."
He said to them, "While it is alive, he will not eat it, but only when he has killed it and it has become a corpse."
They said to him, "He cannot do so otherwise."
He said to them, "You too, look for a place for yourself within repose, lest you become a corpse and be eaten."

(61) Jesus said, "Two will rest on a bed: the one will die, and the other will live."
Salome said, "Who are you, man, that you ... have come up on my couch and eaten from my table?"
Jesus said to her, "I am he who exists from the undivided. I was given some of the things of my father."

（米）我是從沒有分離對立的地方來的。注意，這個ＵＮＤＩＶＩＤＥＤ就是現代的ＮＯＮＤＵＡＬＩＴＹ概念。

<...> "I am your disciple."
<...> "Therefore I say, if he is destroyed, he will be filled with light, but if he is divided, he will be filled with darkness."

(62) Jesus said, "It is to those who are worthy of my mysteries that I tell my mysteries. Do not let your left (hand) know what your right (hand) is doing."

(63) Jesus said, "There was a rich man who had much money. He said, 'I shall put my money to use so that I may sow, reap, plant, and fill my storehouse with produce, with the result that I shall lack nothing.' Such were his intentions, but that same night he died. Let him who has ears hear."

(64) Jesus said, "A man had received visitors. And when he had prepared the dinner, he sent his servant to invite the guests.
He went to the first one and said to him, 'My master invites you.' He said, 'I have claims against some merchants. They are coming to me this evening. I must go and give them my orders. I ask to be excused from the dinner.'
He went to another and said to him, 'My master has invited you.' He said to him, 'I have just bought a house and am required for the day. I shall not have any spare time.'
He went to another and said to him, 'My master invites you.' He said to him, 'My friend is going to get married, and I am to prepare the banquet. I shall not be able to come. I ask to be excused from the dinner.'
He went to another and said to him, 'My master invites you.' He said to him, 'I have just bought a farm, and I am on my way to collect the rent. I shall not be able to come. I ask to be excused.'
The servant returned and said to his master, 'Those whom you invited to the dinner have asked to be excused.' The master said to his servant, 'Go outside to the streets and bring back those whom you happen to meet, so that they may dine.' Businessmen and merchants will not enter the places of my father."

(65) He said, "There was a good man who owned a vineyard. He leased it to tenant farmers so that they might work it and he might collect the produce from them. He sent his servant so that the tenants might give him the produce of the vineyard. They seized his servant and beat him, all but killing him. The servant went back and told his master. The master said, 'Perhaps he did not recognize them.' He sent another servant. The tenants beat this one as well. Then the owner sent his son and said, 'Perhaps they will show respect to my son.' Because the tenants knew that it was he who was the heir to the vineyard, they seized him and killed him. Let him who has ears hear."

(66) Jesus said, "Show me the stone which the builders have rejected. That one is the cornerstone."

(67) Jesus said, "If one who knows the all still feels a personal deficiency, he is completely deficient."

(68) Jesus said, "Blessed are you when you are hated and persecuted. Wherever you have been persecuted they will find no place."

（米）：被人恨，被人迫害是你的福，因為沒有那個迫害的地方。

我理解是，不要害怕被迫害，被人恨，沒有這個被迫害的對象（ＥＧＯ），所以沒有被迫害的地方。你永遠是安全的。

(69) Jesus said, "Blessed are they who have been persecuted within themselves. It is they who have truly come to know the father. Blessed are the hungry, for the belly of him who desires will be filled."

(70) Jesus said, "That which you have will save you if you bring it forth from yourselves. That which you do not have within you will kill you if you do not have it within you."

（米）：耶穌清楚地說，隻有你已經擁有的才能救你。他指的就是你的心。觀察它吧。

(71) Jesus said, "I shall destroy this house, and no one will be able to build it [...]."

(72) A man said to him, "Tell my brothers to divide my father's possessions with me."
He said to him, "O man, who has made me a divider?"

（米）：耶穌強調，我不是一個分離者。

我的理解：任何分離都是不對的。基督可沒有要世人為宗教教義的不同互相鬥爭。

He turned to his disciples and said to them, "I am not a divider, am I?"

(73) Jesus said, "The harvest is great but the laborers are few. Beseech the Lord, therefore, to send out laborers to the harvest."

(74) He said, "O Lord, there are many around the drinking trough, but there is nothing in the cistern."

(75) Jesus said, "Many are standing at the door, but it is the solitary who will enter the bridal chamber."

(76) Jesus said, "The kingdom of the father is like a merchant who had a consignment of merchandise and who discovered a pearl. That merchant was shrewd. He sold the merchandise and bought the pearl alone for himself. You too, seek his unfailing and enduring treasure where no moth comes near to devour and no worm destroys."

(77) Jesus said, "It is I who am the light which is above them all. It is I who am the all. From me did the all come forth, and unto me did the all extend. Split a piece of wood, and I am there. Lift up the stone, and you will find me there."

（米）這是非常關鍵的一句話，也是目前基督教徒誤解最深的一句話。耶穌說的“Ｉ”不是指他肉體的我，這是一個非個人的“Ｉ”，這個“Ｉ”就是永恒意識。這個“Ｉ”在劈開的柴火裏，這個“Ｉ”在搬起來的石頭裏。這個“Ｉ”在任何地方，你都可以找到這個“Ｉ”。這是一個廣義的“Ｉ”，大我。

佛祖用了另一個詞：Dhamar （佛法），和耶穌說的“Ｉ”是同一個道理。佛祖也說過，佛法在萬物之中，在樹上，在葉子裏，每個人心裏都有佛心。

(78) Jesus said, "Why have you come out into the desert? To see a reed shaken by the wind? And to see a man clothed in fine garments like your kings and your great men? Upon them are the fine garments, and they are unable to discern the truth."

（米）耶穌舉例子：“衣服光鮮的人，不一定看的見真理。”

(79) A woman from the crowd said to him, "Blessed are the womb which bore you and the breasts which nourished you."
He said to her, "Blessed are those who have heard the word of the father and have truly kept it. For there will be days when you will say, 'Blessed are the womb which has not conceived and the breasts which have not given milk.'"

(80) Jesus said, "He who has recognized the world has found the body, but he who has found the body is superior to the world."

(81) Jesus said, "Let him who has grown rich be king, and let him who possesses power renounce it."

（米）讓那些有錢人成為國王吧。但是真正有力量（ＰＯＷＥＲ）的人是無欲無求的，完全放下的人。

(82) Jesus said, "He who is near me is near the fire, and he who is far from me is far from the kingdom."

(83) Jesus said, "The images are manifest to man, but the light in them remains concealed in the image of the light of the father. He will become manifest, but his image will remain concealed by his light."

（米）耶穌說，人看到的都是圖像圖形，但看不到光明。但天父顯現在圖形和圖像裏了。圖形圖像不是沒有光明，而是它隱藏了你看不到。

萬物都是光明的化身，看到它們吧。

(84) Jesus said, "When you see your likeness, you rejoice. But when you see your images which came into being before you, and which neither die not become manifest, how much you will have to bear!"

(85) Jesus said, "Adam came into being from a great power and a great wealth, but he did not become worthy of you. For had he been worthy, he would not have experienced death."

(86) Jesus said, "The foxes have their holes and the birds have their nests, but the son of man has no place to lay his head and rest."

(87) Jesus said, "Wretched is the body that is dependant upon a body, and wretched is the soul that is dependent on these two."
