| 223 | 丛林生活 | monastic life | The essence of Prajna is Emptiness. Emptiness and Dependent Arising are the two aspects of reality. The Master is good at integrating the essence of the Buddha's teachings with what are currently acceptable to the public. Buddhism proclaims the Law of Dependent Arising. Therefore, Buddhism would keep in accord with the secular world, and help living beings make progress from where they are. In view of this, the Master often explains things in plain language. For instance, he says there are four barriers to upholding precepts, which are "material desire, family bond, fame and wealth, and wrong views". When practicing Buddhism, "One should not forget his ultimate goal, objectives and original aspiration". Modern monks should possess five qualities, which are "aspiration, cultivation, morality, ability and knowledge". The best advice on the monastic life is "to persist, to accommodate oneself to others and to comply". The executives of a monastery should "have noble aspiration, be honest and do practical things". When one deals with people and does things, the right attitude towards those who don't understand should be one of "acceptance, tolerance, courtesy and sincerity". "An incompetent person will not be able to cope with ever-changing situations, so in the future, let those who cannot do things well do things and let those who can do things well be detached from doing things." These words sound simple and plain, yet they contain the essential principles of Buddhism.般若讲的是空性,而缘起与性空是一体的两面。法师擅长将佛法的内涵融入大众眼前可以接受的缘起之中。佛法既然讲缘起,一定符顺这个世间,让众生从眼前这一步能走得上去。法师平时常讲一些朴实的话语,例如:持戒有四个关卡 — “物欲、亲情、名利、邪见”;修学路上应“不忘宗旨、不忘目标、不忘发心”;现代出家众要具备 “志、道、德、才、学”五种素质;丛林生活“坚持、随众、服从”是灵丹妙药;做执事,要“发大心、讲真话、办实事”;为人处世遇到对方不理解时,要“忍、包容、以礼相待、以诚相待”;“如果工作能力不够,就无法应付千变万化的缘起,以后不会做事的人去做事,会做事了应从中超脱出来”等。这些听起来很朴实平常的话语,却蕴含着重要的佛法内涵。 | 龙泉寺 | LQI20170328 | | 20170328 达实性 | 学诚法师 | | | |

| 941 | 色 | "form" | 佛法里边所谈的“空”是说,“色”存在的本身是无常的,是变化的;包括我们所有的念头,包括一切事物、人生,都是在变化,所以它名为“空”。"Emptiness" in Buddhism means"form" itself is impermanent and changing, which includes all our thoughts, all things and our life.

In this way, the mundane dharma is turned into the Buddha Dharma.文字不单是文字,世间书籍的文字是世间法,佛教经典的文字是佛法,都是文字,组成的语句不同,其意义也就不同。能认清文字的意义,回归自性,成为般若,即文字般若,那么,世间法也成了佛法。 | 龙泉寺 | LQI20170328 | | 20170328 达实性 | 学诚法师 | | | |

| 1348 | 心迷法华转,心悟转法华 | “When our mind is under delusion, the Lotus Sutra ‘turns us round’; with an enlightened mind we ‘turn round’ the Sutra instead.” | As taught in the Platform Sutra, “When our mind is under delusion, the Lotus Sutra ‘turns us round’; with an enlightened mind we ‘turn round’ the Sutra instead.” It is believed in Buddhism that our speech will bring equal benefit to others as the Buddha’s speech does if we have the same thoughts and views with the Buddha. This belief is absent in other religions but consistent with Confucianism. Having talked about all this, if I am asked what the life wisdom in Chan is, I would conclude that it is diligent daily practice, under the guidance of the Buddha’s teachings, in our personality, way of thinking, ability of deep reflection and sense of duty to save all sentient beings. 刚才我们说过,《坛经》里面谈到“心迷法华转,心悟转法华”,这是非常了不起的。就是说,如果我们的见解都跟佛一样的话,那我们说出来的话,带给人的利益跟佛是一样的,别的宗教不会有这种观点。在这种观点上,佛家、儒家是一致的。佛教能培养我们树立很好的人格,培养我们很好的思维方式,培养我们深刻思考的能力,同时又引导我们发大愿,以拯救天下苍生为己任。同时,要在日常生活中,未来的人生中,脚踏实地加以落实,那我觉得,这就是禅的人间智慧。 | 龙泉寺 | LQI20170405 | | 20170405 逆顺达观,解脱自在 | 学诚法师 | | | |
