1.需要的不多,想要的太多。
Our needs are few; our wants are many.
2.知恩报恩为先,利人便是利己。
To be grateful and repay kindness—this is first; to benefit others is to benefit ourselves.
3.尽心尽力第一,不争你我多少。
Devote wholehearted effort without calculating who does or gains more.
4.慈悲没有敌人,智能不起烦恼。
Kindness and compassion have no enemies; wisdom engenders no vexations.
5.忙人时间最多,勤劳健康最好。
The busy make the most of time; the diligent enjoy the best of health.
6.布施的人有福,行善的人快乐。
Those who give selflessly are blessed; those who do good deeds are happy.
7.心量要大,自我要小。
Cultivate a big heart—but a small ego.
8.要能放下,才能提起。提放自如,是自在人。
To take on anything, one must first be able to let go. One is truly free who can take on and let go
of anything in peace.
9.识人识已识进退,时时身心平安;知福惜福多培福,处处广结善缘。
Know yourself and others, and the ways of the world, so as to have a peaceful body and mind.
Recognize, cherish, and nurture your blessings, and seize every chance to be of service.
10.提得起放得下,年年吉祥如意;用智能种福田,日日都是好日。
For those who can take things on and let them go in peace, every year is an auspicious year. For
those who can sow with wisdom the seeds of blessings, every day is a good day.
11.身心常放松,逢人面带笑;放松能使我们身心健康,带笑容易增进彼此友谊。
Maintain a relaxed body and mind, and meet and greet with a smile. Relaxation enhances
physical and mental health, and a smiling face promotes friendship.
12.话到口边想一想,讲话之前慢半拍。不是不说,而是要惜言慎语。
Before you open your mouth to speak, think twice and chew your words carefully. The point is not
to hold your peace, but to speak with discretion and prudence.
13.在生活中,不妨养成:「能有,很好;没有,也没关系」的想法,便能转苦为乐,便会比较自
在了。
Try to cultivate this attitude in life: if I can have what I want, that’s good; if I can’t, that’s fine too.
This will help us turn our suffering into joy, and live a happier life.
14.四安:安心、安身、安家、安业。
To uplift our character, begin with cultivating peace in mind, body, family, and activity.
15.四要:需要、想要、能要、该要。
In dealing with your heart’s desire, ask yourself these questions: Do I need it, or do I want it? Can
I acquire it? Should I acquire it?
16.四感:感恩、感谢、感化、感动。
To get along with others, we must feel grateful for events that help us grow, feel thankful for
chances to hone ourselves, reform ourselves through the Dharma, and inspire others through
exemplary behavior.
17.四它:面对它、接受它、处理它、放下它。
When faced with any difficulty of life, resolve it by following these four steps: face it, accept it,
deal with it, and then let it go.
18.四福:知福、惜福、培福、种福。
To increase our blessings we need to recognize blessings, cherish blessings, nurture blessings,
and sow the seeds of blessings.
19.能要、该要的才要;不能要,不该要的绝对不要。
Pursue only what you can and should acquire. Never pursue what you can’t and shouldn’t acquire.
20.感恩能使我们成长,报恩能助我们成就。
Gratitude can make us grow, and the resolve to return favors can help us succeed.
21.感谢给我们机会,顺境、逆境,皆是恩人。
Feel thankful for the chances to hone ourselves: both good and ill fortune are our benefactors.
22.遇到好事,要随喜、赞叹、鼓励,并且虚心学习。
When good things happen, we should rejoice in, praise, encourage, and then learn from them in
modesty.
23.少批评、多赞美,是避免造口业的好方法。
To criticize less and praise more is a good way to avoid creating negative karma of speech.
24.平常心就是最自在、最愉快的心。
An ordinary mind is a mind of utmost freedom and unsurpassed joy.
25.踏实地走一步路,胜过说一百句空洞的漂亮语。
A solid step forward speaks louder than a hundred empty, fair words.
26.知道自己的缺点愈多,成长的速度愈快,对自己的信心也就愈坚定。
The more weaknesses you discover in yourself, the faster you will develop, and the more self-
confident you will be.
27.多听多看少说话,快手快脚慢用钱。
Keep your ears and eyes wide open, but mouth tight shut; be quick with your hands and legs, but
slow to spend.
28.唯有体验了艰苦的境遇,才会有精进奋发的心。
Only after encounters with hardships will one be roused to vigorous diligence.
29.踏踏实实做人,心胸要广大;稳稳当当做事,着眼宜深远。
Be a down-to-earth person with a broad mind; be a sure hand with piercing foresight.
◎享受工作 Enjoying Work
30.忙而不乱,累而不疲。
Be busy without being disorganized, and weary without being dispirited.
31.忙得快乐,累得欢喜。
Be busy but happy, and tired but joyful.
32.「忙」没关系,不「烦」就好。
It’s fine to be busy: just don’t let it get on your nerves.
33.工作要赶不要急,身心要松不要紧。
Work swiftly, but don’t tense up; relax your body and mind and never tighten up.
34.应该忙中有序的赶工作,不要紧张兮兮的抢时间。
Work swiftly in an orderly fashion; never compete with time in a nervous flurry.
35.不要以富贵贫贱论成败得失,只要能尽心尽力来自利利人。
Don’t measure success and gain by wealth and rank: to benefit ourselves and others as best we
can is all that matters.
36.任劳者必堪任怨,任事者必遭批评。怨言之下有慈忍,批评之中藏金玉。
To take on tough tasks, one must prepare to tough out complaints, and to be in charge is to be in
for criticism. Yet complaints help foster compassion and patience, and criticism often holds
golden advice.
37.随遇而安,随缘奉献。
Stay at ease under all circumstances, and give whenever conditions allow.
38.成功的三部曲是:随顺因缘、把握因缘、创造因缘。
The tripartite formula for success is: go with the causes and conditions, seize them as they come,
and create them when they don’t.
39.见有机缘宜把握,没有机缘要营造,机缘未熟不强求。
Grasp opportune conditions when they come, create them when there are none, and ere
conditions ripen, never force a thing to be done.
40.人生的起起落落,都是成长的经验。
All the ups and downs of life are nourishing experiences for our growth.
41.用智能处理事,以慈悲关怀人。
Deal with matters with wisdom, and care for people with compassion.
42.以智能时时修正偏差,以慈悲处处给人方便。
Rectify deviations with wisdom; accommodate others with compassion.
43.慈悲心愈重,智能愈高,烦恼也就愈少。
The deeper our compassion, the greater our wisdom and the fewer our vexations.
44.面对许多的情况,只管用智能处理事,以慈悲对待人,而不担心自己的利害得失,就不会有烦
恼了。
Simply deal with matters with wisdom and treat people with compassion, without worrying about
personal gain or loss. Then we’ll never be plagued by vexations.
45.心随境转是凡夫;境随心转是圣贤。
To let the circumstances dictate one’s state of mind is human; to let the mind dictate the
circumstances is sage.
46.大鸭游出大路,小鸭游出小路,不游就没有路。
A big duck cuts a big wake; a small duck cuts a small wake. Big or small, each duck will paddle
its own way to the other shore—but only if it paddles.
47.山不转路转,路不转人转,人不转心转。
If the mountain won’t move, build a road around it. If the road won’t turn, change your path. If you
are unable to even change your path, just transform your mind.
48.「精进」不等于拼命,而是努力不懈。
Diligence doesn’t mean stretching beyond our limits. It means displaying unremitting persistence.
49.船过水无痕,鸟飞不留影,成败得失都不会引起心情的波动,那就是自在解脱的大智能。
A passing boat leaves no trace upon the waters; a bird’s flight leaves no trace in the sky. When
fleeting success, failure, gain, or loss leaves no trace upon the heart, the great wisdom of
liberation has been achieved.
50.给人方便等于给自己方便。
To be accommodating to others is to be accommodating to ourselves.
51.甘愿吃明亏,是仁者;受辱吃暗亏,是愚蠢。
Who is willing to be openly exploited is noble-minded; who is insulted and insidiously exploited is
dim-witted.
52.压力通常来自对身外事物过于在意,同时也过于在意他人的评断。
Pressure usually stems from caring too much about externals and other people’s opinion.
53.用感恩的心、用报恩的心,来做服务的工作,便不会感到倦怠与疲累。
Offer your service with a heart of gratitude, as if repaying a kindness, then you won’t feel weary or
tired.
54.随时随地心存感激,以财力、体力、智能、心力、来做一切的奉献。
Always feel gratitude in your heart, and give unstintingly of your wealth, physical strength, mental
effort, and wisdom.
◎平安人生 Living Life in Peace
55.生命的意义是为了服务,生活的价值是为了奉献。
The meaning of life lies in serving; the value of life in giving.
56.人生的目标,是来受报、还愿、发愿的。
The purpose of life is to receive karmic results, fulfill old vows, and make new ones.
57.人的价值,不在寿命的长短,而在贡献的大小。
Our value depends not on how long we live, but on how much we contribute.
58.过去已成虚幻,未来尚是梦想,把握现在最重要。
As the past has faded into misty memories, and the future remains a dream unrealized, seizing
the present is most important.
59.不用牵挂过去,不必担心未来,踏实于现在,就与过去和未来同在。
There’s no need to be concerned about the past or the future. Live fully in the present, and you
are connected with both the past and the future.
60.智能,不是知识、不是经验、不是思辨,而是超越自我中心的态度。
Wisdom is not knowledge, nor experience, nor dialectical excellence, but a selfless attitude.
61.积极人生,谦虚满分;自我愈大,不安愈多。
A positive life pivots on modesty; the bigger the ego, the greater the insecurity.
62.上等人安心于道,中等人安心于事,下等人安心于名利物欲。
The noble pursue the path, the average pursue their duties, and the misguided pursue fame and
fortune.
63.你是有那些身分的人,就应该做那些身分的事。
Live up to your role and status, and fulfill your required duties.
64.在安定和谐中、把握精彩的今天,走出新鲜的明天。
In peace and harmony, seize the promise of today, and live out a fresh tomorrow.
65.担心,是多余的折磨;用心,是安全的动力。
While worry fuels unnecessary torment, carefulness breeds security.
66..财富如流水,布施如挖井。井愈深,水愈多;布施的愈多,财富则愈大。
Wealth is like running water, and giving like digging a well. Just as the deeper the well, the more
water it holds, the more you give, the more wealth you have.
67.面对生活,要有「最好的准备,最坏的打算」。
In life, we must make the best preparations, and be ready for the worst.
68.只要还有一口呼吸在,就有无限的希望,就是最大的财富。
As long as we still have breath, we have boundless hope, and the breath we have is the greatest
wealth.
69.救苦救难的是菩萨,受苦受难的是大菩萨。
Those who aid and deliver the suffering are bodhisattvas, and those in the throes of suffering are
great bodhisattvas.
70.超越生老病苦三原则:活得快乐、病得健康、老得有希望。
To transcend the sufferings of birth, old age, and sickness, keep to the three principles: live
happily, face illness with a healthy mind, and embrace old age with hope.
71.超越死亡三原则:不要寻死、不要怕死、不要等死。
To transcend the suffering of death, keep to the three principles: never seek death, never fear
death, and never wait for death to come.
72.死亡不是喜事,也不是丧事,而是一件庄严的佛事。
Death is an occasion for neither mourning nor celebrating, but one for solemn Buddhist practice.
73.每一个孩子,都是帮助父母成长的小菩萨。
Every child is a little bodhisattva that helps the parents grow.
74.对青少年:要关心不要担心,要诱导不要控制,用商量不用权威。
With adolescents, we should care, but not worry about them; guide, but not control them; and
communicate with, but not command them.
75.爱你的孩子,与其担心,不如祝福吧!
To love your children, rather than worry about them, just give them your blessings!
76.夫妻是伦理的关系,不是「论理」的关系。
The relationship between a husband and wife is governed by marital ethics, not logic.
77.现在所得的,是过去所造的,未来所得的,是现在所做的。
What you have results from karmic causes that you created, and what you’ll gain hinges on
karmic causes that you’re creating.
78.眼光,是你的智能;运气,是你的福德。
Vision is derived from wisdom; luck, from blessings.
79.喜爱的就想占有,讨厌的就会排斥,患得患失,烦恼就来了。
To crave your likes but reject your dislikes will plunge you into constant anxiety. Once there, you
are prey to vexations.
80.经常少欲知足的人,才是无虞匮乏的富人。
Those content with few desires will never want.
81.心不平安是真正的苦,身体的病痛不一定是苦。
Bodily ailments do not necessarily constitute suffering. An unsettled mind does.
82.明知心不平安是苦事,就赶快以持念「南无观世音菩萨」来安心吧!
To eliminate the suffering induced by an unsettled mind, just start reciting Guanyin’s name to
restore your inner peace.
83.现在拥有的,就是最好的。拥有再多也无法满足,就等于是穷人。
What we have now is the best. He who can never be satisfied is a poor man, no matter how much
he owns.
84.不要用压仰来控制情绪,最好用观想、用佛号、用祈祷,来化解情绪。
Don’t try to control your negative emotions by suppressing them. Rather, dissolve them through
contemplation, reciting the Buddha’s name, or praying.
◎幸福人间 Building a Pure Land
85.好话大家说,好事大家做,好运大家转。
May good words be spoken by all; may good deeds be done by all; then may the fortunes of all
be transformed.
86.大家说好话,大家做好事,大家转好运。
May all speak good words; may all do good deeds; then all may transform their fortunes.
87.每人每天多说一句好话,多做一件好事,所有小小的好,就会成为一个大大的好。
If everyone can just say one more good word or do one more good deed every day, all the small
good will add up to a great good for society.
88.急须要做,正要人做的事,我来吧!
If an urgent task is waiting to be done, come forward and say, “I’ll do it!”
89.我和人和,心和口和,欢欢喜喜有幸福。
In harmony with self and so with others, both in mind and in speech, one is full of joy and
happiness.
90.内和外和,因和缘和,平平安安真自在。
In harmony with the inner and so with the outer, with causes in harmony with conditions, in peace
and well-being one is truly free.
91.自求心安就有平安,关怀他人就有幸福。
To seek inner peace is to enjoy peace in life; to care for others is to attain happiness.
92.人品等于财富,奉献等于积蓄。
Virtues are equal to fortunes, and giving is equal to saving.
93.奉献即是修行,安心即是成就。
To give of oneself is to cultivate the path; to achieve inner peace is to succeed on the path.
94.拥有的多,不一定让人满足;拥有的少,不一定让人贫乏。
Possessing much won’t necessarily make one satisfied; possessing little won’t necessarily make
one want.
95.能不乱丢垃圾,随时清捡垃圾,都是做的功德。
By just picking up litter and refraining from littering, we are doing meritorious deeds.

The good are never alone, and the kindhearted are the merriest. Those who help others and so
benefit themselves are the happiest.
97.若希望人际关系相处得好,就要把心量放大,多接纳人,多包容人。
To develop good interpersonal relationships, one needs to broaden the mind, and be more
affable and tolerant.

Change your mind-set, and you will see the world differently: there is no absolute good or bad in
this world.
99.人与人之间的相处之道,需要沟通,沟通不成则妥协,妥协不成时,你就原谅和容忍他吧。
Building good interpersonal relationships requires communication. When communication fails, try
compromise. And if attempts at compromise also fail, then forgive and tolerate.

圣严法师108语录

  • 1. 圣严法师 108 语录 2009-02-11 12:02:46 1.需要的不多,想要的太多。 Our needs are few; our wants are many. 2.知恩报恩为先,利人便是利己。 To be grateful and repay kindness—this is first; to benefit others is to benefit ourselves. 3.尽心尽力第一,不争你我多少。 Devote wholehearted effort without calculating who does or gains more. 4.慈悲没有敌人,智能不起烦恼。 Kindness and compassion have no enemies; wisdom engenders no vexations. 5.忙人时间最多,勤劳健康最好。 The busy make the most of time; the diligent enjoy the best of health. 6.布施的人有福,行善的人快乐。 Those who give selflessly are blessed; those who do good deeds are happy. 7.心量要大,自我要小。 Cultivate a big heart—but a small ego. 8.要能放下,才能提起。提放自如,是自在人。 To take on anything, one must first be able to let go. One is truly free who can take on and let go of anything in peace. 9.识人识已识进退,时时身心平安;知福惜福多培福,处处广结善缘。 Know yourself and others, and the ways of the world, so as to have a peaceful body and mind. Recognize, cherish, and nurture your blessings, and seize every chance to be of service. 10.提得起放得下,年年吉祥如意;用智能种福田,日日都是好日。 For those who can take things on and let them go in peace, every year is an auspicious year. For those who can sow with wisdom the seeds of blessings, every day is a good day. 11.身心常放松,逢人面带笑;放松能使我们身心健康,带笑容易增进彼此友谊。 Maintain a relaxed body and mind, and meet and greet with a smile. Relaxation enhances physical and mental health, and a smiling face promotes friendship. 12.话到口边想一想,讲话之前慢半拍。不是不说,而是要惜言慎语。 Before you open your mouth to speak, think twice and chew your words carefully. The point is not to hold your peace, but to speak with discretion and prudence. 13.在生活中,不妨养成:「能有,很好;没有,也没关系」的想法,便能转苦为乐,便会比较自 在了。 Try to cultivate this attitude in life: if I can have what I want, that’s good; if I can’t, that’s fine too. This will help us turn our suffering into joy, and live a happier life. 14.四安:安心、安身、安家、安业。 To uplift our character, begin with cultivating peace in mind, body, family, and activity. 15.四要:需要、想要、能要、该要。 In dealing with your heart’s desire, ask yourself these questions: Do I need it, or do I want it? Can I acquire it? Should I acquire it? 16.四感:感恩、感谢、感化、感动。 To get along with others, we must feel grateful for events that help us grow, feel thankful for chances to hone ourselves, reform ourselves through the Dharma, and inspire others through exemplary behavior. 17.四它:面对它、接受它、处理它、放下它。 When faced with any difficulty of life, resolve it by following these four steps: face it, accept it, deal with it, and then let it go. 18.四福:知福、惜福、培福、种福。 To increase our blessings we need to recognize blessings, cherish blessings, nurture blessings, and sow the seeds of blessings. 19.能要、该要的才要;不能要,不该要的绝对不要。 Pursue only what you can and should acquire. Never pursue what you can’t and shouldn’t acquire. 20.感恩能使我们成长,报恩能助我们成就。
  • 2. Gratitude can make us grow, and the resolve to return favors can help us succeed. 21.感谢给我们机会,顺境、逆境,皆是恩人。 Feel thankful for the chances to hone ourselves: both good and ill fortune are our benefactors. 22.遇到好事,要随喜、赞叹、鼓励,并且虚心学习。 When good things happen, we should rejoice in, praise, encourage, and then learn from them in modesty. 23.少批评、多赞美,是避免造口业的好方法。 To criticize less and praise more is a good way to avoid creating negative karma of speech. 24.平常心就是最自在、最愉快的心。 An ordinary mind is a mind of utmost freedom and unsurpassed joy. 25.踏实地走一步路,胜过说一百句空洞的漂亮语。 A solid step forward speaks louder than a hundred empty, fair words. 26.知道自己的缺点愈多,成长的速度愈快,对自己的信心也就愈坚定。 The more weaknesses you discover in yourself, the faster you will develop, and the more self- confident you will be. 27.多听多看少说话,快手快脚慢用钱。 Keep your ears and eyes wide open, but mouth tight shut; be quick with your hands and legs, but slow to spend. 28.唯有体验了艰苦的境遇,才会有精进奋发的心。 Only after encounters with hardships will one be roused to vigorous diligence. 29.踏踏实实做人,心胸要广大;稳稳当当做事,着眼宜深远。 Be a down-to-earth person with a broad mind; be a sure hand with piercing foresight. ◎享受工作 Enjoying Work 30.忙而不乱,累而不疲。 Be busy without being disorganized, and weary without being dispirited. 31.忙得快乐,累得欢喜。 Be busy but happy, and tired but joyful. 32.「忙」没关系,不「烦」就好。 It’s fine to be busy: just don’t let it get on your nerves. 33.工作要赶不要急,身心要松不要紧。 Work swiftly, but don’t tense up; relax your body and mind and never tighten up. 34.应该忙中有序的赶工作,不要紧张兮兮的抢时间。 Work swiftly in an orderly fashion; never compete with time in a nervous flurry. 35.不要以富贵贫贱论成败得失,只要能尽心尽力来自利利人。 Don’t measure success and gain by wealth and rank: to benefit ourselves and others as best we can is all that matters. 36.任劳者必堪任怨,任事者必遭批评。怨言之下有慈忍,批评之中藏金玉。 To take on tough tasks, one must prepare to tough out complaints, and to be in charge is to be in for criticism. Yet complaints help foster compassion and patience, and criticism often holds golden advice. 37.随遇而安,随缘奉献。 Stay at ease under all circumstances, and give whenever conditions allow. 38.成功的三部曲是:随顺因缘、把握因缘、创造因缘。 The tripartite formula for success is: go with the causes and conditions, seize them as they come, and create them when they don’t. 39.见有机缘宜把握,没有机缘要营造,机缘未熟不强求。 Grasp opportune conditions when they come, create them when there are none, and ere conditions ripen, never force a thing to be done. 40.人生的起起落落,都是成长的经验。 All the ups and downs of life are nourishing experiences for our growth. 41.用智能处理事,以慈悲关怀人。
  • 3. Deal with matters with wisdom, and care for people with compassion. 42.以智能时时修正偏差,以慈悲处处给人方便。 Rectify deviations with wisdom; accommodate others with compassion. 43.慈悲心愈重,智能愈高,烦恼也就愈少。 The deeper our compassion, the greater our wisdom and the fewer our vexations. 44.面对许多的情况,只管用智能处理事,以慈悲对待人,而不担心自己的利害得失,就不会有烦 恼了。 Simply deal with matters with wisdom and treat people with compassion, without worrying about personal gain or loss. Then we’ll never be plagued by vexations. 45.心随境转是凡夫;境随心转是圣贤。 To let the circumstances dictate one’s state of mind is human; to let the mind dictate the circumstances is sage. 46.大鸭游出大路,小鸭游出小路,不游就没有路。 A big duck cuts a big wake; a small duck cuts a small wake. Big or small, each duck will paddle its own way to the other shore—but only if it paddles. 47.山不转路转,路不转人转,人不转心转。 If the mountain won’t move, build a road around it. If the road won’t turn, change your path. If you are unable to even change your path, just transform your mind. 48.「精进」不等于拼命,而是努力不懈。 Diligence doesn’t mean stretching beyond our limits. It means displaying unremitting persistence. 49.船过水无痕,鸟飞不留影,成败得失都不会引起心情的波动,那就是自在解脱的大智能。 A passing boat leaves no trace upon the waters; a bird’s flight leaves no trace in the sky. When fleeting success, failure, gain, or loss leaves no trace upon the heart, the great wisdom of liberation has been achieved. 50.给人方便等于给自己方便。 To be accommodating to others is to be accommodating to ourselves. 51.甘愿吃明亏,是仁者;受辱吃暗亏,是愚蠢。 Who is willing to be openly exploited is noble-minded; who is insulted and insidiously exploited is dim-witted. 52.压力通常来自对身外事物过于在意,同时也过于在意他人的评断。 Pressure usually stems from caring too much about externals and other people’s opinion. 53.用感恩的心、用报恩的心,来做服务的工作,便不会感到倦怠与疲累。 Offer your service with a heart of gratitude, as if repaying a kindness, then you won’t feel weary or tired. 54.随时随地心存感激,以财力、体力、智能、心力、来做一切的奉献。 Always feel gratitude in your heart, and give unstintingly of your wealth, physical strength, mental effort, and wisdom. ◎平安人生 Living Life in Peace 55.生命的意义是为了服务,生活的价值是为了奉献。 The meaning of life lies in serving; the value of life in giving. 56.人生的目标,是来受报、还愿、发愿的。 The purpose of life is to receive karmic results, fulfill old vows, and make new ones. 57.人的价值,不在寿命的长短,而在贡献的大小。 Our value depends not on how long we live, but on how much we contribute. 58.过去已成虚幻,未来尚是梦想,把握现在最重要。 As the past has faded into misty memories, and the future remains a dream unrealized, seizing the present is most important. 59.不用牵挂过去,不必担心未来,踏实于现在,就与过去和未来同在。 There’s no need to be concerned about the past or the future. Live fully in the present, and you are connected with both the past and the future. 60.智能,不是知识、不是经验、不是思辨,而是超越自我中心的态度。
  • 4. Wisdom is not knowledge, nor experience, nor dialectical excellence, but a selfless attitude. 61.积极人生,谦虚满分;自我愈大,不安愈多。 A positive life pivots on modesty; the bigger the ego, the greater the insecurity. 62.上等人安心于道,中等人安心于事,下等人安心于名利物欲。 The noble pursue the path, the average pursue their duties, and the misguided pursue fame and fortune. 63.你是有那些身分的人,就应该做那些身分的事。 Live up to your role and status, and fulfill your required duties. 64.在安定和谐中、把握精彩的今天,走出新鲜的明天。 In peace and harmony, seize the promise of today, and live out a fresh tomorrow. 65.担心,是多余的折磨;用心,是安全的动力。 While worry fuels unnecessary torment, carefulness breeds security. 66..财富如流水,布施如挖井。井愈深,水愈多;布施的愈多,财富则愈大。 Wealth is like running water, and giving like digging a well. Just as the deeper the well, the more water it holds, the more you give, the more wealth you have. 67.面对生活,要有「最好的准备,最坏的打算」。 In life, we must make the best preparations, and be ready for the worst. 68.只要还有一口呼吸在,就有无限的希望,就是最大的财富。 As long as we still have breath, we have boundless hope, and the breath we have is the greatest wealth. 69.救苦救难的是菩萨,受苦受难的是大菩萨。 Those who aid and deliver the suffering are bodhisattvas, and those in the throes of suffering are great bodhisattvas. 70.超越生老病苦三原则:活得快乐、病得健康、老得有希望。 To transcend the sufferings of birth, old age, and sickness, keep to the three principles: live happily, face illness with a healthy mind, and embrace old age with hope. 71.超越死亡三原则:不要寻死、不要怕死、不要等死。 To transcend the suffering of death, keep to the three principles: never seek death, never fear death, and never wait for death to come. 72.死亡不是喜事,也不是丧事,而是一件庄严的佛事。 Death is an occasion for neither mourning nor celebrating, but one for solemn Buddhist practice. 73.每一个孩子,都是帮助父母成长的小菩萨。 Every child is a little bodhisattva that helps the parents grow. 74.对青少年:要关心不要担心,要诱导不要控制,用商量不用权威。 With adolescents, we should care, but not worry about them; guide, but not control them; and communicate with, but not command them. 75.爱你的孩子,与其担心,不如祝福吧! To love your children, rather than worry about them, just give them your blessings! 76.夫妻是伦理的关系,不是「论理」的关系。 The relationship between a husband and wife is governed by marital ethics, not logic. 77.现在所得的,是过去所造的,未来所得的,是现在所做的。 What you have results from karmic causes that you created, and what you’ll gain hinges on karmic causes that you’re creating. 78.眼光,是你的智能;运气,是你的福德。 Vision is derived from wisdom; luck, from blessings. 79.喜爱的就想占有,讨厌的就会排斥,患得患失,烦恼就来了。 To crave your likes but reject your dislikes will plunge you into constant anxiety. Once there, you are prey to vexations. 80.经常少欲知足的人,才是无虞匮乏的富人。 Those content with few desires will never want. 81.心不平安是真正的苦,身体的病痛不一定是苦。 Bodily ailments do not necessarily constitute suffering. An unsettled mind does. 82.明知心不平安是苦事,就赶快以持念「南无观世音菩萨」来安心吧!
  • 5. To eliminate the suffering induced by an unsettled mind, just start reciting Guanyin’s name to restore your inner peace. 83.现在拥有的,就是最好的。拥有再多也无法满足,就等于是穷人。 What we have now is the best.
