周圍人的變化 才是你修行的進步

周圍人的變化 才是你修行的進步

The Changes of Those Around You Are Your Progress.

我們是要救度眾生，是要為佛教做貢獻，但是要從自身做起，從家庭做起，從自己的家人、孩子、親朋好友做起，然後再逐漸一步步擴大範圍。你連與自己最有緣分的眾生都沒有救度，還想救度其他的眾生是不可能的。你先走一步，然後再走兩步，這樣慢慢才能走一百步。

We are to save all sentient beings and make contributions to Buddhism, but we should start it from ourselves and our family to a larger range gradually. If you haven』t saved the beings who have the strongest karmic connections with you, it』s impossible to save other beings. Step by step, you can cover a long distance.

現在有的人說，我對家人不行，但是我非常慈悲，對別人特別好，別人對我的印象也很好。這就說明了你就是不行，你就是不好！為什麼這麼說呢？因為別人不了解你！你偶爾說幾句空話、好話，幫幫別人忙，這沒什麼可難的。難就難在對身邊的人要持之以恆地付出。你身邊的人，經常跟你接觸的人，他才了解你。你要經常關心照顧他們，要經常為他們付出，那才是真正的難處。你能感化他們，這才是你真正的進步。

Nowadays, some people say that I』m not kind to my family, but I』m very compassionate, because I』m kind to others and they have a good impression about me. This means you are not good. Why do I say that? Because others don』t understand you! Occasionally, you say some empty but good words, or help others, which is not difficult. The difficult point is devoting yourself to the people around you persistently. Only those who are around you and who contact you frequently really understand you. You are supposed to care about them and be devoted to them, which is really hard. If you can influence them, you will make the real progress.

你修行的進步，並不在於你念了多少遍什麼咒語，念了多少遍什麼經文，做了多少遍什麼功課，也不在於你一天打坐幾個小時。你修行是否有進步，就看你周圍人的變化。如果你對周圍的人影響非常好，他們對你都很滿意，還對佛法有興趣，那說明你有修行了。你能把他們感化了，這才是你修行的進步！如果不是這樣，你周圍沒有變化，還是跟原來一樣，甚至更不好，那你念的咒語再多，你做的功德再多也沒用，說明你沒有修行，沒有進步。

The progress in your practice doesn』t lie in how many mantras or sutras you have chanted, how many practices you have done, or how many hours you have sat in meditation. It lies in the changes of the people around you. If you have a positive influence on them, and they are satisfied with you and interested in Buddhism, then it means you bear a fruit of practice. You can influence them, which is your progress. If they don』t change or just remain the same as before, or even worse than before, then no matter how many mantras you have chanted or how many merits you have made, it means you have not got progress.
