所以在这地方,「思惟」两个字你要好好地去……思惟的结果呢?真正你能够如法了解。所以我们常常说「回光返照」,什么叫回光返照啊?平常你一定照外面,错啦!这个里边是一片黑暗,把这个光明照到里边来,这个叫内明啊!你照到里边,里边清楚了,啊!没有错,这么髒!你才能有机会洗得乾淨。是!你不懂的要靠善知识,懂得以后靠你,怎么办?就这个。关键在这里啦!

【A human life of leisure and opportunity】- The light returns to shine inward

Therefore, here, on “contemplation” you must do it well…what is the result from contemplating? You can then truly understand in accordance to the teachings. So we often would say “the light returns to shine inward.” What is having the light return to shine inward? Usually you would be shinning the light outwards. It’s wrong! The darkness is within. Shine the light inward, this is call inner (self) studies! You shine the light internally, then you can see it clearly, ah! There is no mistake, it is that dirty! You then have a chance to wash it clean. Yes! With what you don’t know, you need to rely on the excellent teacher. Once you know, you need to rely on yourself, what do you do? This is it. This is a crucial point.
