家人是最親近的眾生

方丈微語

在家人學佛修行，最起碼先要做到家庭和睦，所謂「家和萬事興」。如果因為學佛而放棄了自己應盡的為人妻、為人母、為人父、為人子的責任，表面上貌似很精進的修行，而事實上學的都是我執，這種不愛護、不顧及家人的行為，就是自私自利的行為，與大乘佛教自利利他、普度眾生的精神是相違背的。佛說放下，而不是放棄。佛弟子更要關愛照顧好家人，因為家人也是眾生，並且是與我們最親近的眾生。

Family members are our nearest human beings

When lay people learn and practice Buddhism, firstly, he or she must make sure that his or her family is harmonious. It is said that a harmonious family brings prosperity. If one learns Buddhism and gives up one』s obligations and responsibilities of wife, mother, father, parents, children; however, even he or she as if a diligent practitioner, it is learning of self center (self-attachment) at a superficial level. This kind of attitude of non-protection on his or her family is called selfish and self-interest behaviors. It contradicts with the spiritual belief of saving all the sentient beings and self-conduciveness and altruistic concept of Mahāyāna Buddhism. The Buddha stated the concept of non-attachment but did not state to abandon one』s ability. Therefore, lay disciples should care and protect their family members because family members are our nearest human beings.
