Prajna Forest Monastery: Mar, 2025
雖遭塵苔侵枯幹,靜守因緣深護根。
今朝腐泥化沃土,一枝綠苗迎新晨。
Though dust and moss cling to its withered bark,
It quietly guards the roots in the dark.
When mire transforms to fertile spright,
A sprig of green greets the morning light.
這個月的主題將延續「十二因緣」的探討,聚焦於「識」、「名色」、「六入」三支。透過學習與思惟這三支,能更清晰的理解過去無明所造的業行,成就今世身心識界的作用,並從中覺察如何轉化習氣,邁向更清淨自在的人生。
This month's theme will continue our exploration of the Twelve Links of Dependent Origination, focusing on the three links of consciousness, name and form, and the six sense faculties. Through studying and contemplating these three links, we can gain a clearer understanding of how past actions driven by ignorance have shaped our present body and consciousness. This awareness allows us to learn how to transform habitual tendencies and move toward a life of purity and freedom.

法語一滴 A Taste of Dharma

根塵同源 縛脫無二 識性虛妄 猶如空華
使汝輪轉,生死結根。唯汝六根,更無他物。汝復欲知,無上菩提。令汝速證,安樂解脫,寂靜妙常,亦汝六根,更非他物。
— 《楞嚴經》
The sense faculties and their objects arise from the same source; bondage and liberation are not different. The nature of consciousness is illusory, like a flower in the sky.
It is your six sense faculties (“six bases”) that keep you in the cycle of birth and death, and nothing else. If you wish to know the unsurpassed enlightenment, and what can enable you to quickly attain the bliss of liberation, that sublime eternal stillness — it is also your six sense faculties, and nothing else.
– Śūraṅgama Sūtra
我們今生的意識色身、成長環境,皆是過去業行所招感,不必怨歎老天父母。人皆有苦有樂,若能超越凡情,以清淨心明眼對諸境,則業障自解,福德自生,成為人上人
— 見護師
Our consciousness and physical form, as well as our upbringing environment, are all results of our past karmic actions. There is no need to lament fate or or blame our parents. Everyone experiences both joy and sorrow. If one can transcend ordinary emotions, and face all circumstances with a pure heart and a clear mind, then karmic obstacles will naturally dissolve, and blessings will naturally increase, elevating one to a higher state of being.
– Jianhu Shifu
