【 Reflecting on your Future Life 三恶趣苦】Weighty karmic obscuration and still do not practice? 业障重还不修行?
【Reflecting on your Future Life】- Weighty karmic obscuration and still do not practice?
Therefore, we would often say, “Ah-ya, my karmic obscurations are too weighty!” With this being said, if you do not understand the principles, for people in general, this becomes the best excuse. It’s also a fact. But after you truly understand the principle, you then absolutely cannot continue to say this. What is the result of having weighty karmic obscuration, what is it? To fall [into miserable realms]. We ask you to practice now when you are happy, yet you cannot bring up the urge, cannot make progress and you use weighty karmic obscuration as an excuse. When you do fall into miserable realms, what would that be like?
We people are always greedy for a little something, taking a little advantage of things now. No matter how great your karmic obscuration is, you should think of this often, if all of a sudden a great earth quake strikes, bam! Everything is turned upside down, ah! You would be the first to run! I think everyone of us can feel for this. What is the real reason here? It is that we have not gained a real feel, an experience for this in accordance with the teachings. The reason we cannot fulfill this experience according to the teachings is because we have weighty karmic obscuration. Once you truly understand this, even those who do not have weighty karmic obscuration will desperately try to practice. If you are the one with weighty karmic obscuration and do not practice, then sufferings will immediately ensure!

三恶趣苦 : 业障重还不修行?
我们所以常常说:“哎呀,我业障太重啊!”这个话呀,如果你不懂得道理的,在一般人说起来,这是个最好的藉口,也是个事实。你真正懂了道理了以后,你就千万不能这样说了。你业障重的结果,是什么?堕落!眼前叫你快快乐乐的,你都没有办法挺得起来,而不能向上,你拿这个业障重找这个藉口,将来一旦堕落了,什么样的样子啊?
我们人都是贪着一点小便宜,不要说再大的业障,你常常想着这件事情,现在忽然之间地震来了,叭!天翻地覆的话,哎哟,你呀跑得第一个快!我想我们人人可以体会得到这件事情。这个真正的原因在什么地方?就是我们没有如实如理地体会到。所以不能如实如理,就是业障重。当你真正了解了以后啊,说业障不重的人都拼命修行,你业障重的人还不修行的话,那个痛苦就跟着来啦!
