Buddhists say that there is only one certain way to break free from Samsara--to eliminate the desires, and the passions, and the distractions of everyday life.
佛教徒說只有一種確定的方法能超脫輪回，就是消除欲望、情欲以及日常生活中的紛繁干擾。
Now, of course, that is very easy to say and it's very hard to do.
當然，這說起來容易，做起來難。
So over the centuries Buddhists have employed specific rigorous methods to break free from all of this,
所以數世紀來，佛教徒們采用非常嚴格的方法，
from the troubles and the temptations of the real world, and to set themselves on the path to enlightenment, to Nirvana.
從這所有一切、從現實世界的煩惱和誘惑中解脫出來，讓自己走上涅槃的正途。
And that is the truly radical thing about the Buddha's example,
而這正是佛陀示范的真正的、根本的事情：
his belief that each and every one of us has the capacity to achieve liberation, to achieve our own enlightenment.
他相信，我們每一個人都有能力獲得自由，得到我們個人的開悟。
It took the Buddha years to arrive at this radical belief.
佛陀用了數年時間才悟道這個根本理念。
Ideas he developed through his own personal experience - in particular, an intense form of meditation.
這些思想形成都來源于他自身的體驗。具體來說，是緣于一種深度入定冥想方式。
And it is Buddhist meditation that I'm now going to experience in our next wonder of the Buddhist world.
接下來，我就要去下一處佛教圣地，體驗佛教的冥想。
