人生目的
慧淨上人法語
人生目的
What is the purpose of life? Probably, most people have not seriously reflected on and asked themselves these questions: Why was I born here? Why do I live here?
Life is full of sorrow. For instance, the recent economic climate of Taiwan is in depression, and some individuals have committed suicide due to the unbearable sufferings in lives. Some others endure no matter how severe the conditions are; but for what should they endure? Where should the life go and what path should follow?
If people can think about this aspect of life, they will develop wisdom, and enter into the arena of faith. Thereafter, once they find the answer, they will become stable, relaxed, and comfortable in the rest of their life.
人生的目的是什麼？可能絕大多數的人都沒有確實的反問自己：「我為什麼生下來？我為什麼活著？」人生很苦，像最近台灣景氣不好，有人因為生活痛苦而自殺；有的人則是再苦也忍耐活下去。但是，「忍耐活下去是為了什麼？人生何去何從？」
如果能夠往這方面去思考，人就會產生智慧，同時也會走進信仰領域，此後只要他找到答案，那麼他的餘生，就能過著安心、安穩、安樂的日子。
Namo Amitabha!
