慧淨上人法語
機法深信

The Ten Wholesomeness (or Ten Good Deeds, i.e. no killing, no stealing, no adultery, no lying, no slandering, no harsh speech, no idle talks, no greed, no anger/hatred, and no illusion) are extended version of the Five Precepts. We use the Ten Wholesomeness as the “Dharma Mirror” to reflect our performance in the Three Karmas [i.e. deed, word, and thought]. Thus, we can see that all of us have a heart of greed and a heart of anger/hatred; we are people of stupidity, ignorant of and unbelieving [the law of] cause and effect.

「十善」是「五戒」的開展，我們用十善的法鏡照自己的三業行為，就能看出原來我們都有貪心、瞋心，都是愚痴、不明因果、不信因果的人。

Namo Amitabha!
