【 How to rely in practice  】- the more we learn, the more people would become afraid of us

By nature, your arrogance is huge, and through engaging in contention with others day and night, [your mind] is filled with afflictions. But by then, all of your afflictions will be gone. What will remain is your gratitude and your mental concordance with the teaching. Your merits and wisdom will multiply and, wherever you go, people will welcome you. Thus, in any situation, anybody would be delighted to see the Buddha. Why? That was due to his stepwise accumulation of merits. Now, with our meagre study of the teaching, we despise this and that. Thus, wherever we go, people would be scared of us. Alas, the more we learn, the more people would become afraid of us. How can we become Buddha? Isn’t this reason very clear!

加行亲近轨理 : 越学越令人害怕

本来你这个慢心是不晓得多大，然后呢一天到晚跟人家讲道理、闹，心里边都是那些烦恼；那个时候，你这个烦恼都没有了，你只有一片感恩之心，一片如法相应之心。你福报、智慧再再增长，你跑到那里，人家也就会欢喜你。所以佛在任何情况之下，任何一个人看见了，就这么欢喜他，为什么呀？就是他一步一步积累的功德。现在我们学了一点点法，那个也看不起，那个也看不起，所以跑到哪里人家就对你害怕。唉，是你越学呀，人家是越害怕你，你怎么能成佛呢？不道理很清楚嘛！
