修行的目的是什麼？

噶瑪巴：

一般來說，我們修行基本上是為了取得經驗。經驗不是在於獲得很多感官感受，而是為了得到在理解方面的體驗，以便可以解決挑戰。我們修行獲得的經驗，可以在遇到類似或更嚴峻的挑戰時，以我們積累的經驗，知道如何面對它們。我認為這是修行的主要目的。

What is the purpose of practice?

Karmapa:

In general, when we practice, we do so basically to develop great experience. Experience not in terms of developing too many sensations, but experience in terms of understanding, in order to go through challenges. We practice to gain experience so that, should we come across similar or greater challenges, we have accumulated experience and know how to go about facing them. I think this is the main goal of practice.
