Master Huijing’s Dharma Words about Attributes of the Pure Land School of Buddhism: Worldly Truths
淨土宗宗風俗諦
(continued)
At the same time, because he is the one being saved, he will be humble. He is a man who has nowhere to go and his life is in danger, and then suddenly he is saved. So, to this man, his life is extended as a bonus. Therefore, when he is humble, contended, and not disputing, his mind will become soften, and at the same time he wants to give back to others and help others. He will be more receptive and tolerant. So, formed by people with grateful minds, this group or community must be warm and harmonious.
同時,因為他是被救者,他就會謙虛、謙卑下來。自己是一個走投無路、生命垂危的人,突然獲救了,生命對他來講是多加的。所以在他謙卑、知足、無諍的時候,他的心就會柔軟,同時想回饋他人,幫助他人,因此就會彼此接納,互相包容。所以有感恩心的人,這個團體必定是溫馨的,這個團體必定是和諧的。
