春天,不是季节,而是内心 生命,不是躯体,而是心性 老人,不是年龄,而是心境 人生,不是岁月,而是永恒 Spring is not just a season,but a state of mind. Life is not in body only,but also in the mind. Old age does not mean living many years,but thinking you are old. Our lives are measured by eternity,not years. 观晚霞悟其无常,因为夕阳近黄昏 观白云悟其卷舒,因为云出岫无心 观山岳悟其灵奇,因为远观山无色 观河海悟其浩瀚,因为海水碧连天 The setting sun teaches impermanence. Clouds teach change. Mountains teach grandeur. Oceans teach infinity. 河以蜿蜒能远,故渊源流长 山以重迭能高,故嶙峋峻拔 气以进出能平,故四通八达 Rivers are long when they twist. Mountains are high when thrust up. Minds are encompassing when spacious. Air flows easily when breathed in peace. 日有升沉起落,故有晚霞余映 月有阴晴圆缺,故有皓月当空 人有悲欢离合,故有聚散情缘 世有苦空无常,故有真理示现 Sunrise and sunset give us rose-pink clouds. The changing month gives us a bright full moon. The sorrow of parting and joy of meeting let us cherish the time we are together. The suffering,emptiness,and impermanence of the world manifest the truth. 因为有过去,才有现在 因为有现在,才有未来 因为有未来,才有三世 因为有三世,才有希望 With past life,the present life is possible. With present life,the future life is possible. With future life,three lives are complete. With three lives,there is hope. 老人的生命:危脆不安 老人的不幸:卧床不起 老人的愚痴:有钱不用 老人的幸福:心中有佛 The life of the elderly is frail. It is sad when the elderly are bedridden. It is foolish when the elderly hoard their money. It is happy when the elderly remember the Buddha. 柔美的音乐,使生活和谐 森林的鸟鸣,使自然悠远 清雅的馨香,使环境怡然 无声的沉寂,使世界安适 Tender music keeps life harmonious. Birdsong in the forest keeps nature wonderful. Pure incense makes the environment pleasurable. Silence keeps the world comfortable. 珍惜生命者,感叹人生苦短 挥霍生命者,埋怨人生苦长 认识生命者,了悟人生苦多 主宰生命者,不惧人生苦空 Those who cherish life sigh that it is too short. Those who squander life whine that it is too long. Those who understand life know it is suffering. Those who master life are not afraid of suffering and emptiness. 我看花,花自缤纷 我见树,树自婆娑 我览境,境自去来 我观心,心自如如 Flowers are by nature beautiful. Trees are by nature vital. The world is by nature transient. The mind is by nature dynamic. 一花一木都有生命 一山一水都有生机 一人一事都有道理 一举一动都有因果 Every tree and flower has a purpose. Every mountain and stream has a place. Every occasion has a reason. Every cause has an effect. 宇宙合乎自然,就有生命 万物合乎自然,就能成长 世事合乎自然,就可形成 人心合乎自然,就是善美 The cosmos exists because it obeys its nature. A being that obeys his nature thrives. A venture that obeys its nature bears rich fruit. A mind that obeys its nature is gentle and fair. 好花,不在于美丽,而在于清香 好刀,不在于庞大,而在于锋利 好话,不在于夸口,而在于真实 衣服,不在于贵重,而在于合身 Good flowers need not be pretty,but must be fragrant. Good knives need not be long,but must be sharp. Good words need not brag,but must be true. Good clothing need not be costly,but must fit. 蜂蝶飞舞在芬芳的花朵间 莺鸟栖息在高大的乔木里 凤凰振翅于挺直的梧桐上 海龙泅泳于深广的大海中 色身居住在有形的房屋内 法身悠游在无边的法界里 The butterfly dances amid scented flowers. The oriole nests in great trees. The phoenix flies round the firmiana. The dragon plies boundless seas. We play in tiny little houses. But the Dharma body fills infinite space. 松涛拍岸,鸟叫虫鸣 无非是悟道的契机 夏涧秋谷,春花冬雪 无非是真理的示现 The sound of wind in the pines,like waves,birdsong,and insects,inspires enlightenment. Summer brook,autumn valley,spring flower,and winter snow are manifestations of truth. 四大五蕴的假合之身,孰能无病 生老病死的无常过程,谁能免除 无病之道无他,只要证悟法身 无常之理好解,只要去妄归真 With physical bodies made of four elements and five aggregates,how can we always be will?
