【Human Life of Leisure and Opportunity 暇满】 The human life that is difficult to attain even in ten million eons 经俱胝劫亦难获的人身
【Human Life of Leisure and Opportunity】- The human life that is difficult to attain even in ten million eons
Well then, when you cultivate the Mahayana path, it is not something that can be done by these beings. Who are they? The Nagas and others of the eight classes. They are described below. These we often come across. Demigods, though they are better than us. Nagas, though they are better than us, and even the garudas. When the garudas open up their wings, the wings span 300 something 60,000 miles, 3,600,000 miles, not sure how long, but it’s quite long! Then when they flap their wings down, the ocean will part, and the largest of nagas can be eaten at once. They are that powerful, just like that. But it’s of no use too! So it doesn’t matter which class it is.
【Also the Descent into the Womb Sutra (Garbhavakranti-sutra) states: Even though you have been born a human with such limitless suffering, you still have the best of situations. It is difficult to attain this even in ten million eons. 】
En! True cultivations all rely on being a human. But even if you have been born a human, there could be “limitless suffering.” Ah, there are no real peace and happiness in the six realms! But this (the human realm) is a truly auspicious place! How auspicious is it? “It is difficult to attain this even in ten million eons.” It is so difficult to attain a human life! Needless to say a human life of leisure and opportunity, even those who do not have leisure and opportunity, even to be those people without leisure and opportunity, it is extremely difficult, extremely difficult to attain!

暇满 : 经俱胝劫亦难获的人身
那么要修这个大乘道，这个道不是下面这些人做得到的。下面是什么？就天龙八部，天龙八部下面就是这个，这我们常常了解的。天—尽管比我们好，龙—尽管比我们好，乃至于金翅鸟，金翅鸟这个翅膀一展，两个翅膀之间都三百多少，六十万里，三百三十六万里不晓得多少，这么大！牠然后那个翅膀这么一拍，海水整个地分开，再大的大龙一下就被牠吃掉了，这么个厉害法，这样。所以也没有用！这个不管是哪一些。
【《入胎经》亦云：[虽生人中，亦具如是无边众苦，然是胜处，经俱胝劫，亦难获得。】
嗯！真正修行都要靠人的，就是生在人当中，也有[无边众苦]。啊，这六道当中没有一个地方安乐的呀！但是它是真正殊胜的地方哦！殊胜到什么程度啊？[经俱胝劫亦难获得]，这个人身之难哪！不要说得到暇满的人身，就是得到不暇满的，不满的人身也是难极、难极呀！
