Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings - the Buddha’s Enlightening Mottos
醒世箴言
We are busy doing this today and busy doing that tomorrow. We keep so very busy until, before we realize it, we have become old. Without being noticed, our remaining life becomes shorter and shorter. It is like a candle in the wind, which can burn out at any time.
When the candle light is gone, we continue to endlessly reincarnate within the Six Realms forever. Most of us lack awareness of these truths.Today, we have a human body and have encountered the Buddhist teachings. We should cherish this rare opportunity and encourage ourselves to pursue a teaching that can lead us to the state of no-birth, no-death, and no-reincarnation, only everlasting bliss.
我們今天忙這件事,明天忙那件事,一直到老,煩忙不斷。不知不覺間,壽命隨著日夜而消減,好像風中之燈燭,隨時都會滅掉。
燈滅了,就繼續輪迴六道,永無窮盡。可是我們卻茫茫然地,悠悠忽忽地,不知道害怕,也無所驚覺。今天既得人身,又聞佛法,就要把握現在頭腦清醒,身體健康,好好自我勉勵,追求不生不滅、不受輪迴、永恆常住的法門。
Namo Amituofo!
