知識爆炸的時代我們如何修行 – 第61集
How do we practise in this era of knowledge explosion?
所以障礙我們要遠離，對於世出世間一切法，盡量的不執著，盡量不要分別。為什麼？分別執著是嚴重的障礙。不執著，清淨心現前了；不分別，平等心現前了。清淨心是阿羅漢、辟支佛他們證得的，小聖；平等心是菩薩證得的。修什麼？就是在日常生活當中修正我們錯誤的觀念、言行。
That’s why we must stay away from obstacles by trying not to discriminate and be attached to everything in this world and beyond. What is the reason? Because attachment and discrimination are serious obstacles. Once we let go of attachment, our mind will be pure, and once we stop discriminating, our mind will be impartial. Purity of mind is attained by arhats and pratyekabuddhas (i.e., the lesser-vehicle saints) while an impartial mind is attained by bodhisattvas. What do we cultivate? We rectify our erroneous thoughts, speech and behaviour in daily life.
觀念最重要，觀念正確，言行自然就正，不會有偏邪。經論確確實實幫助我們修正行為的標準，我們起心動念跟佛講的相不相應？相應的，正知正見，你的三業身口意是正行；如果與經教相違背，那是邪知邪見，言行就錯誤了，一定要以經教為標準。
Thought is the most important because if our thoughts are proper, our speech and behaviour will naturally be proper and not deviated. Sutras and treatises are indeed the standard that help us to rectify our behaviour. For instance, we can compare if our thoughts correspond with what the Buddha taught. If they correspond, then our three karmas of actions, speech and thoughts are proper because our understandings and views are proper. If our thoughts are contrary to the sutra teachings, then our speech and behaviour are erroneous because our understandings and views are deviated. That’s why we must use the sutra teachings as standard.
這個經上，經律論統統具足，依照這部經修行夠了。在現在這個時代知識爆炸，錯誤的觀念、行為比比皆是，正知正見的人愈來愈少了。我們初學，沒有能力辨別是非邪正，怎麼辦？有《無量壽經》就行了，《無量壽經》就是標準。
This sutra is complete with sutras, precepts and treatises, so it is enough to cultivate according to this sutra teachings. In this era of knowledge explosion, erroneous thoughts and behaviour are extremely common because there are fewer and fewer people with correct understandings and views. For beginners like us who do not have the ability to discern rights from wrongs and between proper and deviated, what should we do? We just have to count on the Infinite Life Sutra because its teachings are the standard.
