星云法师:佛光菜根谭之修行篇

星云法师,佛光菜根谭

 

小人专希望人给,给过就忘

君子不轻受人恩,受则必报

A mean person expects all things from others,and then forgets to reward the favor.

A virtuous person does not expect things from others,and always thinks of repaying favors.
 

为儿孙作未来计,十望九空

为社会作众人谋,点滴有功

Schemes to advance posterity usually fail.

Working for society today gains merits.
 

悭吝嫉妒的人,即使财富满室也走不出内心的贫乏

埋怨自怜的人,纵使四肢健全也跨不出内心的框框

Even with all his money,a jealous miser cannot rise above mental poverty.

Even with his strong legs,a whiner cannot walk away from his inner weakness.
 

吾人必须要求自己,健全自己才能得以生存

吾人必须反观自省,培植善缘才能迈向佳境

We must be wholesome to survive.

We must think and cultivate good causes and conditions to improve our state.
 

世间最贵者,就是尊重生命

世间最恶者,就为残杀生灵

The best thing in the world is to respect life.

The worst thing in the world is to kill.
 

要用伦理净化所爱

要用道德领航所爱

Transform your loved ones with virtue.

Guide them with morality.

Help them with kindness to succeed.

管理的秘诀

要公开、公正,更要公平处事的诀窍

要知人、知情、更要知理

Fairness is the key to management.

Understanding people and knowing management rules is the key to business.
 

勤俭淡泊 为自己开创美好的明天

慈悲喜舍 为子孙准备美好的未来

Diligence,frugality,and detachment from worldly desires bring you a better tomorrow.

Compassion,loving-kindness,joyfulness,and equanimity bring happiness to posterity.
 

耳闻不如目见 目见不如足践

口说不如手做 心想不如圆成

It is better to see than to hear. It is better to act than to see.

It is better to do than to speak. It is better to carry on than to be deterred by excessive doubts.

我们不惧挫折,要勇敢担当

Don't fear night,but greet the dawn.

Don't fear cold,but embrace the sun.

Don't fear disorder,but cleanse your surroundings.

Don't fear frustration,but bravely shoulder responsibility.
 

环保是对于地球的爱护

没有地球,何能生存?

护生是对于生命的尊重

没有生命,何来意义?

Ecology means protecting the earth:without earth,houw can we survive?

Protecting beings means respect for life:without life,can anything have meaning?
