【Human Life of Leisure and Opportunity 暇满】 What virtue will I cultivate in a miserable realm, completely confused and suffering? 恶趣苦蒙蔽，尔时我何为

【Human Life of Leisure and Opportunity】- What virtue will I cultivate in a miserable realm, completely confused and suffering?

【If I do not cultivate virtue Even when I have the chance to do so, What virtue will I cultivate in a miserable realm, Completely confused and suffering?】

Just look at us presently, today we are very energetic, we are very energetic and we still can’t seem to cultivate. When we talk about it, oh, we say we are quite enthusiastic, quite enthusiastic about the teachings we heard today, like that. But when we listen, somehow it’s hard to avoid sometimes, when we listen, there is just a slip in our concentration, and we would miss something. Or at that moment you start to think, why the time is running so....why can’t we end class soon! Conversely, when you truly begin to feel a bit not well, then you have no way [to practice], no way [to practice]. In our daily lives, this is true with anything. It’s like that when you listen in class, but how about prostrations to Buddha? How about morning and night time rituals? Think about this thoroughly, when you have energy, you can’t even truly concord. Then when you lose the energy, can you do it? No! We would come upon something small and our minds become irritated. Ah! We just don’t know what to do. May I ask then, when you get to miserable realms, can you do it?

暇满 :恶趣苦蒙蔽，尔时我何为

【若时能善行，然我不做善，恶趣苦蒙蔽，尔时我何为。】

就我们眼前来说，今天我们精神很旺健，精神很旺健，在那地方都没办法修行，说起来，喔唷，说这个课听起来还满起劲的，满起劲的，这样。可是听的时候，难免有的时候，听的时候啊，就是稍微有一点点心神不集中，就漏掉了。或者到那个时候就想：这个时间怎么老啊……不快一点下课！反过来，等到你真正稍微一点不舒服的时候啊，那是一点办法都没有，一点办法都没有。我们日常生活当中，任何一件事情，听课是如此，拜佛呢？上早晚殿呢？仔细想想看，你这样的精神好的时候，都没办法真的能够相应，坏了以后又行吗？不行！我们碰见稍微一点事情啊，心里就烦烦躁躁的，哎呀！不晓得怎么办是好。请问到那个时候，到了恶道当中，行吗？
