從學法界 林鈺堂 簡繁轉換 - 繁體


法則運行不待言,虛懷體會以遵循;
免卻家規省爭議,無我存心方悠遊。

一般從師修學難免門戶之見,派系之私,又各各家規林立。以法界為師,則人人得以自修而免卻彼此間於見解、規矩上之種種爭議。雖然如此,法界之運行仍有一定之因果法則,全賴個人虛心以體會,無私以遵循。否則自行其是,終究難免遭逢報應之苦果。

Learning from the Dharmadhatu Yutang Lin


Operation of the causal law goes beyond saying;
Evacuate personal views to appreciate and obey it.
Thus saving the troubles of private rules and controversy;
Only selfless intentions could enjoy freedom in life.

Comment:

The usual way of learning from teachers could hardly escape the pitfall of sectarian views and competitions. Furthermore, each teacher or school would set up numerous rules and regulations leading to further complications of interpretation and enforcement. Learning from the Dharmadhatu would provide each person equal opportunity for individual study without incurring all sorts of arguments on views and regulations. Nevertheless, the Dharmadhatu operates in accordance with the law of cause and effect, and each individual need to appreciate the unspoken rules with an open mind and to obey them in selfless ways. Otherwise, acting out on self-assertions would eventually encounter the bitter fruit of its consequences.
