【Listening 听闻】actual application vs "wild engagement" 如实修与行放逸

【LISTENING】– actual application vs "wild engagement"

[Though you might understand the heart of the scriptures through hearing, 
And might know the core of meditative concentration, 
Such hearing and knowledge are of little import
If wildly you engage in coarse behavior.]

Also, it says, even the virtuous teacher is now telling you the most complete instructions; and you also understood accordingly, abided by it and realized the certainty of its true benefits.  For our worldly busy engagements are illusory, only actual application [of the teachings] is assured and steadfast. However, if you recognize it but lack earnest application, your “wild engagement in coarse behavior” will keep you in dysfunctional tendencies and wrongdoings. With this, your hearing and understanding are of little significance!

听闻 ：如实修与行放逸

【又云：“虽闻善说知心藏，修诸三昧知坚实，若行放逸令粗暴，其闻及知无大义。】

又说，虽然现在有善知识，告诉你最完整的教诫，你也了解他说的什么，那照着去修，晓得必定可以真正得到好处。因为我们世间忙的这些东西都是虚幻的，唯有如实地修法，这个才是实在的，这个才是坚固的。但是你虽然知道而不认真去做，你的“行放逸”，然后结果啊你仍旧在粗重当中，在暴恶当中，那这个——你的听闻、你的了解，没有多大意思啊！
