A lot of people love to talk about compassion and peace regarding home, foreign and domestic affairs. But did not have the compassion and peace in mind, then how will the true compassion and peace be formed?

所有的人,都爱说的范围是:国内,国外与家庭的慈悲与和平。但是反过来内心却没有慈悲与和平的想法,那么,真正的慈悲与和平怎样能形成的呢?

【等我有了钱再布施】


一个修行者人听了因果布施的道理,对禅师说:等我有钱以后,一定广修供养,做一些济世救人的事业。
禅师:等你有钱以后再行布施,那你永远不会有钱,也不会布施。
修行者:为什么呢,师父?
禅师:因为富有从布施中来呀!
修行者:我很贫穷,连饭都吃不饱,该怎么办呢,师父?
禅师:饿了,等有了在吃,行吗?
修行者:不行,那还不饿死啊?
禅师:真明白布施的道理了,就不会等。哪怕什么都没有,也会到山上采些花和果子来供养三宝,或用劳动所得进行布施。
人生无常,此时生,不知何时死。要做就不能等,即使一生都没有钱,也努力争取,以此心诚,故能满愿。尽心尽力,以自己的能力而真诚行持。
穷的原因为吝啬,只有自我。若想成为大富者,必然要心胸广阔,怀摄天下。无论是什么众生,只要种了富贵之因,必然就会得到富贵的果。因果不择生,如同大地含养万类。
等有了钱,未必会能真诚供养。佛,要的不是供养,而是因供养而能解脱的你!就是说,一切都是给自己做的。有一块,能全部捐出就是满善。有一块,说少而不去行善,等真有了一百万,未必会去真诚地做。一切都是给自己做,都是利益自己的!
真智慧者,不求无因之果;真明白者,信受奉行!
—— 愚者总在找借口,智者总在找机会。

Dedication


Due to this merits,
May I soon,
Attain the enlightened state of Guru Buddha,
That I may be able to librate all sentient beings from their suffering.

May the precious bodhi mind, Not yet been born in me, will arise and grow.
May the birth have no decline, and will increase forever more.
