◎我們學習《廣論》以後，它告訴我們一件事情：「你要嘛不做，要做就不能斷。」現在我們應該慢慢去嘗試，在起步時最好要有比較好的規劃。學佛固然如此，凡事皆然，必須採取謹慎的態度。【日常師父法語】

After we learn from Lamrim Chenmo, it tells us one thing: we shall either not do something or do it persistently. Now we shall gradually try to have a better plan when we start. Learning Buddha’s teaching should be like this, and so are other things – we have to be cautious.  – Master Jih Chang

To learn Buddha’s teaching, we shall not rely on our subjective guessing and imagination. Instead, we have to understand what are said in the elders’ teaching, in the scriptures, and in the sastras.

[Master Jenru‧Moonlight in the Sea of Lamrim] Vol 1 P98

[師父法語] 2019/4/29

◎所謂「加持」，是佛法的專有名詞，就是你去求佛菩薩，求了以後，祂會幫助我們。如同去求一個有錢有力的人士，然後很誠心地依靠他，請他幫助。一個普通的凡夫都能做到這樣，難道聖者不能幫助我們嗎？【日常師父法語】

The so-called “assistance” is a term in Buddhism. It means the assistance from Buddhas and Bodhisattvas after our praying to them. It is just like sincerely relying on and asking for help from a rich and competent person. Even ordinary people can do this. Could it be that sages will not help us?

[師父法語] 2019/4/28

◎末法的時候，苾芻大多沒有戒，只求多聞。戒和多聞，不瞭解的話是兩件事情，瞭解的話是一件事情。要想真正把戒學好，一定要有正確的認識，而正確的認識要透過多聞，反過來，多聞以後不去持，也沒有用。【日常師父法語】

In the Dharma’s Ending Age, most monks just want to be diligent at learning instead of their ethical discipline. As for learning and ethical discipline, they appear to be two separate things if you do not really understand them. If you really know them, they are really the same thing. To understand ethical discipline well, you need rightful perceptions, which can only be obtained through diligent learning. On the other hand, learning diligently without practicing will also be useless at all. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/27

◎修行最重要的是：從自己了解的基礎上面去增上，千萬不要在意別人，但不在意別人是很難的，因為世間人都是追求名利的。事實上，名聞利養是自他比較出來的，我們盡心盡力從自己內心怎樣去觀察，才是最重要的基本原則。【日常師父法語】

The most important part in cultivation is: improve and elevate yourself on the basis of your knowledge. Do not mind what others think too much. Yet it is not easy to do so since all worldly people are pursuing fame and fortune. In fact, we perceive fame and fortune by comparison. The most important principle is how we strive to observe everything via introspection. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/26

◎初學最重要的是先要認識自己有病，然後就肯信賴、依靠善知識，這是學進去必然的條件。【日常師父法語】

At the start of learning, the most important of all is to be aware of our own sickness. Then we will trust and rely on the Guru, which is essential for further learning. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/25

◎「困難不應退，皆因修力成」，精神的力量是不可思議的。假定我們侷限在這一生去看，不管有多大力量，終究會淹沒在這整個社會的大洪流當中，一點跡象都沒留下來。但若以無限的生命去看，如果方向把握得住，的確會感覺到生生增上，如同小小的火種會不斷地擴大，乃至於造天造地一樣。【日常師父法語】

“Do no turn away from difficulties since all things must be achieved with the power of cultivation”, which means spiritual power is unfathomable. If we limit our vision to the current life, no matter how great the power can be, it will eventually be submerged by the flood of the whole society, leaving no trace behind. However, if we look from the perspective of infinite lives and move at the correct direction, we feel the enhancement life after life. It is just like a small tinder that keeps growing larger and larger and eventually becomes as large as heaven and earth. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/23

◎看別人的功德，別人不一定有好處，但自己一定有好處；看別人的過失，別人不一定受害，自己一定受害－－各位要從實踐中，體會對自己最有價值的是「觀功念恩」。【日常師父法語】

Looking at the merits of others may not always benefit your object of thought but will surely benefit yourself. Looking at the faults of others may not always harm your object of thought but will surely harm yourself. You must realize in the process of practice that the most valuable for yourself is to “observe merits and appreciate kindness”. – Master Jih Chang

[廣海明月] 2019/4/22

推動命運的那雙手是什麼呢？是思想。

◎佛成佛以後，最感謝的就是眾生，因為沒有眾生，沒有機會讓祂成佛。【日常師父法語】

After achieving Buddhahood, the Buddha thanks all sentient beings the most. It is because, without them, He could not have achieved Buddhahood. – Master Jih Chang

◎對法要具有大希求心，如果沒有的話，就會這個也放不下；那個也放不下。【日常師父法語】

Follow the Guru and listen, and then you will obtain the wisdom of listening. Furthermore you reflect on it and obtain the wisdom of thinking – your own unshakable conception. Then cultivate and transform yourself according such conception.

◎初進入佛門是需要信心，但如果只停在這個階段，弄得不好會變成迷信。因為解決問題，需要真正的智慧。【日常師父法語】

At the start of learning Buddhism, what you need is faith. Yet if you just stick with this stage, you are, without careful thinking, likely to become superstitious. It is because: it takes true wisdom to solve problems. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/19

◎如果說：「現在是末法了，算了、算了……」這種話完全說錯了。正因為末法，所以我們更要努力，只要努力就向上了。如果不依法行持，正法的時候也有末法，反過來，末法的時候，如果行持認真的話，正法就住世了。【日常師父法語】

If someone says “Now we are in the Dharma’s Demise, so forget about it”, it will be totally wrong. Since it is the Dharma’s Ending Age, we shall thus work even harder. As long as we work hard, we will be elevated. If in the Proper Dharma Age, everyone refuses to cultivate, then that good era becomes the Dharma's Ending Age. On the contrary, if we strive to cultivate in the Dharma’s Ending Age, the proper Dharma will remain in the world. – Master Jih Chang

佛教是一個非常非常嚴謹的思辨過程，它不是憑想像力而構建的一個玄學，它是非常非常嚴謹的，由於思路、由於抉擇而成立出來的教理。

◎所謂「隱惡揚善」，以佛法來說，自己的惡要發露，別人的惡要遮蓋。【日常師父法語】

The so-called “conceal the faults and praise the virtue”, in Buddhist term, is to expose our own faults and conceal the faults of others. – Master Jih Chang

因為有人荷擔著佛法的重任，我們這個所謂的小我，才能在這些大菩薩們的發心之下，我們能有一間自己的課堂、能有一本自己讀的經論、能有一個佛堂在裡邊靜靜地念經，實際上這是好多好多人成辦的。

Thanks to some people taking on the responsibility for Buddha’s teaching, tiny individuals like us can, under the aspiration of these Bodhisattvas, have our own classroom, a book of scripture to read, a Buddha hall to quietly recite the sutras. In fact, this can only be achieved with the contribution of many people.

[Master Jenru‧Moonlight in the Sea of Lamrim] Vol 1 P86

學習經典，它要一個非常恭敬的心，而且要慢慢地學，跟平常做很多事情的速度看起來是不一樣的。因為它需要凝視我們的內心，去看祖師、佛菩薩在說什麼。所以就好像從一個非常非常喧嚷的白晝時光，突然進入到一個明月當空寧靜的夜色之中，心境是非常寧靜、非常愉悅的。

出處〡真如老師《廣海明月》 第81頁

To learn from the scriptures takes a very respectful attitude and steady pace at which is very different from when you are doing many others things. It is because we need to gaze at our inner self to see what elders, buddhas, bodhisattvas say. Therefore, it is like transferring from a crowded, noisy day time to a very quiet, moon-shined night time. Our state of mind is so tranquil and pleasant.

[Master Jenru‧Moonlight in the Sea of Lamrim] Vol 1 P81

[師父法語] 2019/4/14

◎我們不是沒有聰明才智，可惜我們用錯了，聰明才智變成世智聰辯，然後被自己的罪過遮蓋，想很巧妙的方法逃避過去，讓自己成為漏網之魚，結果反而害了自己。聰明才智用對了地方，會發現自己的錯誤，錯了馬上發露懺悔，能如此做，「錯誤」本身也是懺悔業障，這是十大願王中的一個主要功德。【日常師父法語】

Not that we have no intelligence, we just use it in the wrong way and it becomes worldly talent and eloquence. Our talent is covered by our afflictions, and we come up with seemingly clever ways to escape the past. We try to make ourselves exception to karma, which is on the contrary harmful to us. Using our intelligence in correct ways, we can find our own mistakes and make instant confession and repentance. By doing so, “mistakes” can also serve to purge our karmic hindrances, which is one of the good qualities of The Ten Vows of Samantabhadra. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/13

◎我們人真正可貴的地方在那裡呢？就是知書達禮。可惜的是，有了這個腦筋，學的卻都是怎麼弄來吃、弄來穿，實在是浪費這個人身。【日常師父法語】

What is so precious in our lives as human form? It is because we can be well-educated and sensible. However, with such thinking ability, if what we learn is how to look for food and clothing, it will be great waste of our lives as human. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/12

◎大乘佛法的師長講說的時候，能夠使聽聞的人產生無量知解，因為他對各方面的問題都認識得質正量圓。有了這麼圓滿的認識，照著去修行的時候，一定次第不誤，眼前得到什麼樣的利益，將來得到什麼樣的果位，其間因果絲毫不差，次第一點不亂，這才是真正的善知識。【日常師父法語】

When a guru of Mahayana Buddhism are teaching, they cause their listeners to have a deep understanding. It is because he understands questions of all aspects at rightful quality and quantity. With his such perfect understanding and our practicing according to this, we will surely cultivate ourselves in correct order. Whatever stage we can achieve in the future will also be in correct order. In this case, he is the true guru. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/11

◎初學時，就想要把正見立刻把握得住是很困難的，但如果覺得把握不住正見就不去學、不去做，那就永遠沒有機會了。例如，小時候絕對不可能先弄清楚奶、飯是什麼再去吃，如果這樣是沒辦法長大的。【日常師父法語】

At the start of learning, it is difficult to get hold of rightful conceptions. However, if you do not learn and practice at the thought of being unable to get hold of them, you will never stand a chance. It is just like, when we were little, we were unlikely to understand first what milk and rice were before drinking and eating them. Had it been so, we would not have grown up. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/8

◎我們眼前所感得的苦樂境界，無一不是源自於過去所造的業，有其背後綿延無盡的緣起，而非天生自性如是。【日常師父法語】

The pleasant and unpleasant circumstances we encounter at present all result from the karmas we created in the past. There are extensive and countless causes beyond them instead of their essential nature. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/10

◎不管學佛法，或者學儒家聖人的心法，都是這樣－－我現在做這件事情，不是做給人家看，是做給我自己看。所以《四書》上說：「戒慎恐懼」，人家看不到的地方要「戒慎恐懼」，也就是你的起心動念。【日常師父法語】

No matter you are learing the teaching of Buddha or mental cultivation of Confucian sages, it is all the same – now I am doing something, not to show it to others but to myself. Therefore, it is said in The Four Book “be cautious and fearful.” This means, “be cautious and fearful” about your motivation and mentality at the absence of others. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/9

◎我們所以不修持的原因是覺得難、怕苦，可是正因為難、苦，所以要修持，天下沒有一件事例外，都是經過修持後才生起的。【日常師父法語】

The reason why we stay away from cultivation is the difficulty and toughness of it. However, it is difficulty and toughness that make cultivation necessary. With no exception, all things in the world can arise only through cultivation. – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/7

◎業流主要的就在我們的意識之流當中，可惜我們的意識之流都是和煩惱相應，陷於雜染中，因此要一心專注於佛法是很困難的，所以大家要至心皈投依靠。【日常師父法語】

The flow of karma is mainly in our flow of consciousness. It is a pity that our flow of consciousness normally corresponds with our afflictions and get caught in defilement, which makes it very difficult to concentrated on Buddha’s teaching. Therefore, we must take refuge devotedly.  – Master Jih Chang

[師父法語] 2019/4/6

◎當境界現起的時候，有兩條路可走，一條路──順著煩惱轉；一條路──用正知見對治它，順著煩惱很容易，用不著努力就跟隨著它；正知見就難了，所以要數數憶念正知，要密護根門，不斷的努力。【日常師父法語】

When circumstances arise, there are two ways out: one following your afflictions and the other remedying them with rightful conceptions. Following your afflictions is easy and effortless. Following rightful conceptions is difficult. Therefore, you must repeatedly recollect them, restrain the sensory faculties and keep working hard.  – Master Jih Chang

[廣海明月] 2019/4/5

我們要有這樣的一個信心：凡夫從腳下的第一步下腳處開始，我們一步一步地走，是可以走上徹底地離苦得樂的那一天、那美好的高度。為什麼呢？因為師父牽著我們走，因為師父走在我們旁邊，因為他舉著燈陪著我們走，只要不放開手，就可以一直一直走，走到那個地方。

出處〡真如老師《廣海明月》 第50頁

We shall have such faith: starting from the very first step, even ordinary beings can go step by step and someday reach the stage of eliminating suffering and obtaining happiness and the wonderful elevation. Why is that? It is because the Late Master is taking our hands, walking by us, holding the light and leading the way. As long as we do not let go, we can keep marching forward and reach that place.

◎不是動機好就好，還要加上行動，所以必須兩個條件－－第一要祈求三寶，第二實際配合的行動。主副二者都做，無有不成功的。【日常師父法語】

It is not enough just to have virtuous motivation. We also have to take action. Therefore, we need two things working together – first we shall pray to the three jewels, and then we shall take action. Doing both the primary and secondary, nothing will be unachievable. – Master Jih Chang

In the process of learning Buddha’s teaching, “examining faults” is our fatal mistake. It is our greatest fault to see the faults of others without seeing our own. Now in the path we are taking, we should not only avoid examining the faults of the Guru but also those of other people. – Master Jih Chang

[廣論穿線] 善知識知悉我的一切

師父能夠寬容習慣跟他完全不一樣的一個弟子，而且能在他的那種習慣上給予他恰當的引導，可是如果我們有一種習慣，看到老師的習慣跟我的不一樣，就多半會觀過。即便你不承許上師是佛，上師對你的心和我們對上師的心是完全不能比的。 -- 真如老師

The Late Master can tolerate a disciple whose habits are totally different from His own and give him appropriate guidance according to the disciple’s habits. However, if we see a habit of the guru that is different from ours, we normally examine his faults. You may not concur that the Guru is really the Buddha. Yet our consideration for the Guru absolutely cannot compare to the Guru’s consideration for us.  -- Master Jenru

[廣海明月] 2019/4/3

◎我們要努力去學，以克制自己的私慾，然後推己及人，還要深廣無涯的去學，那種情況之下，心裡真的都是為別人著想，當我們懂得了佛法，才真正了解成佛的心叫菩提心──就是為別人著想。【日常師父法語】

We must learn diligently so as to control our selfish desire, then to be considerate for others, and to go deeper and broader into Buddha’s teaching. Under that circumstance, we have nothing but consideration for others in mind. When we understand Buddha’s teaching, we really realize the mind of Buddhahood is Bodhicitta – consideration for others.  – Master Jih Chang
