星云法师:佛光菜根谭之修行篇(3)

The best favor is to help others do well. The worst evil is to tell others to do ill. The best help is to praise others' good merits. The worst hurt is to reveal others' shortcomings. 道人长短,一句

The best favor is to help others do well.

The worst evil is to tell others to do ill.

The best help is to praise others' good merits.

The worst hurt is to reveal others' shortcomings.
 

道人长短,一句话也是多嘴, 故要少说

启人生信,千万言也是嫌少, 故应多讲

One sentence of gossip is too much:don't talk.

Spreading the faith,a thousand words are not enough:keep talking.

能做好事就是「般若手」

人,要给人利用 才能创造价值

自己可以不聚外财 但不能不开发内心的宝藏

自己可以不仗势力 但不能不开创国家的地位

It is better to grow your mind than to be rich.

It is better to advance the nation's interests than to use your connections for private gain.
 

知足,是解脱欲望的妙方

感恩,是拥有财富的法门

Content knows how to be free from desires.

Gratitude is the gateway to wealth.
 

有人登山遇难

有人游河翻船

有人损他利己

有人自我牺牲

Some die climbing mountains.

Some die stormy seas.

Some harm others for profit.

Some yield their livers for justice.
 

万贯家财,不如一技在身

满腹经纶,不如一善在心

高谈阔论,不如一言九鼎

长篇累牍,不如一字千金

Better have skill than property.

Better be virtuous than learned.

Better keep your word than be eloquent.

Better write well than profusely.

修身容易行道难

It is easier to study than to be intelligent and open-minded.

It is easier to manage business than to get along well with others.

It is easier to handle outer affairs than to tackle inner problems.

给人利用也是一种结缘

帮助别人就是帮助自己

Being used by others is a kind of affinity.

Helping others is helping self.
 

人若无求,心自无事

心若无求,人自平安

Shun greed and have peace of mind.
 

遇才不妒

有过不避

当仁不让

立功不居

Don't be jealous of the talented.

Take the initiative to do good.

Don't take credit for a success.
 

读书要能明理

思想要有正见

办事要具信心

修道要存正念

学佛 就是向自己的烦恼魔军作战

念佛 就是对自己的烦恼习气革命

Learning from the Buddha fights defilement.

Chanting the Buddha's name purges bad habits and defilement.

不一定靠化妆来修饰容貌

要用道德来庄严身心

不一定籍名位来提高身份

要以慈悲来充实内涵

Beautify yourself with goodness,not make-up.

Cultivate compassion,not position.
 

修养心性之道,应审度自己所长

补强自己不足

对待他人之道,应包容他人不足

赞扬他人所长

To cultivate yourself,recognize your merits and improve your shortcomings.

To cultivate others,tolerate their shortcomings and praise their merits.
 

人,只为自己而活很自私

人,只为亲人而活很辛苦

人,能为他人而活很伟大

人,能为社会而活很踏实

It is selfish to live for yourself only. (发布者: 欢迎投稿,网站:无量光佛教网讨论请进入:佛教论坛)
