【A summary of the meaning of the previous five parts 】- Why is that we understood yet are unable to apply it?

【Thus, after you have understood the benefits and faults as previously explained, reflect on them repeatedly.  】

So we should understand the concepts stated earlier – don’t overlook it, the reasoning actually has a direct impact on us, a very direct impact. Abide by it and it will benefit you in a great way. Conversely, disaccord with it the consequence is grief. So why is that we understood yet are unable to apply it? That is due to our habits from beginningless time; this karmic force is weighty. So, later, the author will tell us, what is the true importance for us? It is to “reflect on them repeatedly.” The “reflection” is in our karmic stream. Due to our weighty karmic propensity from beginningless time, although we listen with great joy, afterward, the latent propensity is back! Then, what is your only remedy? It is, upon hearing, to reflect on it immediately and analyze with deeper understanding. That is when the true effect will arise.

摄彼等义 : 了解了为什么做不到？I

【故应了知如前所说胜利过患，数数思惟，】

所以我们应该了解前面告诉我们的道理——不要看那个道理，这个道理究实说来，就是对我们最切身相关的，最切身相关的。照着去做，对你有这样殊胜的大利益，不照着去做，对你有这样地严重的害处。那么为什么我们了解了以后做不到呢？因为我们无始以来的习气，这个业力很重。所以他下面告诉我们，我们真正重要的应该什么？[数数思惟]。这个[思]就是我们的业流，因为我们无始以来的业流非常强，所以听的时候尽管很好，听完了，这个业流又来了！那么你唯一的办法怎么办呢？就是听完了以后，马上去思惟、观察、深入，那个才是真正产生功效的。
