【Human Life of Leisure and Opportunity】- the number of beings as humans is extremely small

【The difficulty of obtaining a human life of leisure and opportunity in terms of the effects is explained as follows. Compared to the number of beings in the miserable realms—beings unlike us—even a mere rebirth in a happy realm seems almost nonexistent】

He said that in terms of the effects, effect means it has already borne fruits. So he said to look at how difficult it is, look at the beings unlike us—beings in the miserable realms. They are beings unlike us. If we look at the beings unlike us, we have no idea of how many there are, have no idea of how many there are. Those who can obtain a human form, if you make a comparison, there are only so few. Therefore, for those in the miserable realms to reach the happy realms, that number seems almost nonexistent. It’s just a tiny, tiny bit! If we just take a look at any place, oh-yo! You have no idea how many ants there are, or how many bugs, or how many of the tiniest creatures. When the light is on at night and you take a look the next morning, ah, under the light there are a bunch of dead corpses. That happens even when we have the bug screens. If we didn’t have the screens, then we have no idea how many there will be. If we look at the people who fish at the sea, a few years back they went to the South Poleto fish. When they put down the net, they had a hard time pulling it up. It’s that many! Ai! Therefore, it is absolutely true that for the animals, the hell, their primary abode is the great ocean. Ah! If you compare in terms of the effects, the number of beings as humans is extremely small.

暇满 : 人实在是少得不能再少

【由果门中难获得者，观非同类诸恶趣众，仅得善趣，亦属边际。】

说现在我们从果门当中，果就是已经结了果了，说看看它很难得，这个看看非同类—恶趣众，不是同类的，我们现在人说不同类的，不晓得多多少少，不晓得多多少少。而想得到人身的话，一比之下的话，那是少之又少，所以说恶趣众得到善趣的是仅属边际，只是边上一点点哪！我们现在随便这个地方一看，喔唷！不知道多少蚂蚁，不晓得多少蚊虫，是不晓得多少细微的。那晚上灯一亮，第二天早晨看看，哎呀，你那个灯下面是一大堆的死尸，那我们还有纱窗喔，如果你没有纱窗的话，根本不晓得多多少少。拿我们看他们那个海里面说打鱼，几年以前他们到南极去捞那个鳞花，一网下去，捞下来那简直是，网都拉不动，这样厉害啊！唉！所以这个的的确确的真正旁生、地狱的真正的它那个所依处是海里。啊！比起来所以果位当中看看哪，人是实在是少得不能再少。
