实现你的每一个愿望 - 一个有意义的故事
Once upon a time a man went to a Zen Master and cried out to him, “Oh wise
one! I have come to you to seek a solution to many problems in my life.
It seems that whenever I find a solution to one problem, another one arises in
my life. Please help me understand the nature of problems and their answers
to help me in my life.
从前,一个人去找一位禅师,对他喊道:“哦,聪明人! 我来找你是为了寻求解决
我生活中许多问题的方法。似乎每当我找到一个问题的解决方案时,另一个问题就会
出现在我的生活中。 请帮助我了解问题的本质及其答案,以帮助我的生活。
The Zen Master said, “I will tell you a story. Listen carefully.”
Then the Zen Master started to narrate a story to the man and the
story goes like this:
‘Once upon a time, a man was walking up a mountain. While walking
along, he accidentally entered Paradise.
头脑是它自己的地
方,它本身可以制造
地狱中的天堂,天堂
中的地狱。
If you think bad you will be bad or meet with bad and if you think
you are good you will be good. If you consider yourself worthy
then you are worthy and if you consider yourself unworthy you
will be really unworthy. If you believe that your future is bright
then your future will be bright and if you believe that your future is
dark then your future will be dark.
如果你认为自己不好,你就会变坏或遇到坏人;如果你认为自己很好,
你就会很好。 如果你认为自己有价值,那么你就是有价值的,如果你认
为自己不值得,那么你将真的不值得。 如果你相信你的未来是光明的,
那么你的未来就会是光明的;如果你相信你的未来是黑暗的,那么你的
未来就会是黑暗的。
你今天创造你的未来

You can have whatever you want with your mind. You are a
magician spinning and giving “magical words” around yourself.
You are then caught in your own web. There is no one torturing
you except yourself. Your whole life is your own work, your own
creation.
你可以随心所欲地拥有任何你想要的东西。 你是一个魔术师,在自己周
围旋转并给出“魔术词”。 然后你就陷入了自己的网中。 除了你自
己,没有人折磨你。 你的整个生命都是你自己的作品,你自己的创造。

Reflection on Dhammapada Verse 1 法句经第 1 节的反
思
The mind is the forerunner
of all things, the mind is
their leader, they are created
by the mind. If one speaks
or acts with impure
thoughts, suffering caused
by them follows, as the
wheel follows the hoof
of the ox.
心为万物之先导,心为万物之
首,万物为心所造。 如果一个
人以不净的思想说话或行动,
那么由它们引起的痛苦就会随
之而来,就像车轮跟随牛蹄一
样。
