Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings - Enlightening Mottos
醒世箴言
In the last century a US traveler visited a philosopher. When he took a look at his home, he was astonished. Apart from a study room full of books, a desk, and a chair, there was no other furniture nor any luxurious decorations.
The traveler asked the philosopher, “Where is your furniture?” The philosopher responded,” What about yours?”
The traveler answered, “Me? I just passed by, and I am a guest, so I didn’t bring any furniture.” The philosopher replied, “So am I!”
In this world, we are all travelers that reincarnate based on karmic forces.
美國上世紀有一位旅行家,特地去拜訪一位哲學家。當他到哲學家的家裏一看,非常驚訝;這個哲學家除了擺滿書籍的一個房間、一張桌子、一把椅子之外,幾乎沒有什麼傢具,更談不上豪華的裝飾。
旅行家就問哲學家:「你的傢具呢?」想到不哲學家反問對方說:「那你的呢?」旅行家回答:「我,我是路過,我是做客,所以並沒有傢具。」哲學家說:「我跟你一樣。」
我們在這世間,其實是受業力來輪迴,不過是來做客而已。
Namo Amituofo!
