Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Education for Living 
生活教育 

There is a saying, “If there is an Arhat or a practitioner in the state of deep meditation on a hill, the cows and goats that eat the grass there develop glistening coats. 
Just because of a practitioner on the hill, the grass grows fresh and green, stones there are shiny, and the animals who graze there become healthy. This illustrates that, if there is a person with merit and blessings, his family members are protected and benefitted. He can change his family members without them even noticing. So, we should simply begin our practice with no need to make demands on others. 

「入定山中之草木,牛羊食之毛光澤。」意思是說,這座山有阿羅漢居住或有 人在山中修行入定,來吃這座山的草木的牛羊,牠們的毛也會有光澤。 
光是山中有修行人入定就會使得這座山的草木青翠、石頭光亮,來吃這些草的 動物,牠們身上也會有這樣的變化,這就說明團體或家庭當中,如果有一個有福德、功德的人,家人就會受他的庇蔭,無形中也會改變家人。所以,凡事反求諸己,從自身做起。
