【修心 Cultivation of The Mind】你已生共下士之量了吗?Have you developed this attitude that is shared with person of small capacity?

修心 : 你已生共下士之量了吗?

所以我这个地方特别提一下,如果我们自己觉得「我很对!」你错了,你错了!前面告诉我们,你真正相应的话,如果你发现你自己错了,那你是有智慧的人,你有了这个你就可以爬得上去。反过来说,你自己觉得你很懂啦,那对不起,你只是一个世智聪辩最多,而且这是八难中人,这是我们千万要注意的!所以现在前面已经提醒我们,这地方更告诉我们:千万不可以觉得够了!所谓这够了已经生起什么?已经生起共下士之量。所以大家注意,你们自己检查检查,是不是你已经生起共下士之量哦?

【Cultivation of The Mind】- Have you developed this attitude that is shared with person of small capacity?

Therefore I wanted to specifically bring this up here.  If we feel that "I am really right!", you are wrong, you are wrong!  It has told us earlier, if you truly accord (with the teachings), if you discover that you are wrong yourself, then you are a wise person.  If you have that, you will be able to advance.  On the contrary, if you feel that you really understand, then I am sorry.  You are at most a person with great intelligence who can out argue everyone around you.  You fall into one of the eight conditions. This is what we should absolutely pay attention to! So now it has already reminded us before, this section tells us even more so:  You should absolutely not think that you have enough!  What does it mean by having enough?  It means that you have developed the attitude that is shared with persons of small capacity.  Therefore everyone should pay attention here.  You should examine and examine yourself.  Have you developed this attitude that is shared with persons of small capacity?
