慧淨上人法語
淨土宗宗風俗諦

After a task is done, we should review it down to tiny matters, and see what else can be done for perfection. If we can do this, there will be room for improvement. Next time, we can do better and move towards perfection. If we don’t “feel that our foolishness and capacity for wrongdoing exceed those of others”, but feel that “other people are foolish and their capacity for wrongdoings exceed me”, then we cannot upgrade and improve ourselves.

一件事情做過以後，要儘量在微細的地方去檢討這件事情，還有那些做的不圓滿？能夠這樣的話，就有改進的空間，下一次，就會向更圓滿的地方前進。如果不去「自覺愚惡，過於他人。」反而都覺得「他人愚惡，過於自己」，這樣的話，自己就無從提升改進了。

Namo Amitabha!
