【LISTENING】 –  My faults are as great as the mountains yet I can't see

I have heard this verse from the Praise of Mindfulness: "My faults are as great as the mountains yet I can't see, 
The faults of the teacher are as tiny as a dust particle yet I clearly perceive them, 
Because of this, the mind is not in concordance with the Dharma. 
May I diligently confess and remember this well .” 

I will  write this [on the board]. Let me repeat it. Our faults pile up higher than a mountain. They accumulate as high as a mountain, but [we] do not see the accumulation, [we] are unable to identify it! We are ignorant from beginningless time. [We are] constantly in the midst of afflictions which accumulates higher than a mountain! It is as vast as the space of the Dharma-realm, yet [we are] unable to see it! As for the teacher, you clearly examine the teacher’s tiny speck of fault. The mind does not align with the Dharma because of this! We studied Buddha Dharma but are unable to align with it. Here is the cause! “May I diligently confess and remember this well .” Constantly keep this in mind.

听闻 :己过如山积不见

所以以前我在《常忆念颂》上面听过一个颂:"己过如山积不见,师过秋毫亦明察,法不相应实由此,勤加忏悔常忆念"。我在这地方写一下。我再说一遍,自己的过失,比山还要高,积得如山,积不见,看不见!我们无始以来的无明哪,一直在惑业当中,岂止山哪,像法界虚空一样地这么多,看不见!师过呢!老师的过失,秋毫一点点哪,你看得清清楚楚,法不相应实由此啊!我们修学了佛法不相应,原因就在这里啊!勤加忏悔常忆念,常常摆在心里面。
