慧淨上人法語
機法深信

A Buddhist should, first of all, refrain from wrongdoing and practice virtue. What is virtue? What is wrongdoing? The benchmark for virtue is being capable of practicing the Five Precepts and the Ten Wholesome Deeds; the benchmark for wrongdoing is committing offenses against the Five Precepts or doing the Ten Unwholesome Deeds.

Using the Five Precepts and the Ten Wholesome Deeds to measure our deeds, words and thoughts, we will see that we always commit offenses against the Five Precepts, and do the Ten Wholesome Deeds.

學佛的人，首先要去惡行善。什麼是善，什麼是惡？它的標準是：能夠行五戒、行十善就是善；而犯五戒、犯十惡就是惡。
以五戒十善為標準來衡量我們的身口意時，就會發現：我們都是在犯五戒，都是在犯十惡業。
