【Mindfulness of Death】- The appalling sin of repudiating excellent teaching

【non-virtuous actions such as the repudiation of the excellent teaching】

We have created countless non-virtuous karma and amongst all, the worst would be the repudiation of excellent teaching. The sin of repudiating excellent teaching is the most appalling. This is why the Mahayana teachings said that the Bodhisattvas are able to save us from the fivefold relentless retributions, but the retribution from repudiation of excellent teaching cannot be salvaged. Although it is unlikely many dharma practitioners will commit the fivefold relentless sins. However, as for repudiation of teaching, the fine violations are extremely difficult to avoid. Now that we have learnt a little, we became very stubborn. We feel that we are right and easily slander others. This fault is very easily committed and very terrifying. Therefore, everyone is strongly encouraged to read up more on the great scriptures and commentaries.

念死无常 : 可怕的谤正法罪

【谤正法等诸不善业。】

我们造的不善业不晓得多多少少，而里面最严重的就是谤正法。谤正法的罪是可怕极了！所以大乘经典上面给我们说了：五无间罪菩萨能救我们，谤法之罪是没办法救我们。现在我们很多修学佛法的人啊，说实在的五无间罪他不会造，谤法的罪实在，所以细微的地方是非常不容易避免。我们往往学了一点执着得很，啊，自己觉得这个对，然后呢轻轻易易地毁谤别人，这个毛病是非常容易犯，而且非常可怕。所以请大家务必多看这个大经大论。
