【Mindfulness of Death】- abandon this prison-like home

If you think that you are capable, you should know in which area you are capable of. Small little afflictions, being affected by little afflictions and still very proud of yourself. Such people are really pitiful. For those who think that they are warriors, you need to grab hold of this! For those who think that they are warriors, you need to grab hold of this! Those who are able to eliminate the worldly defilements, this is the real prison – “abandon this prison-like home”. The others in the world – “ordinary worldlings”, these people cannot, they cannot abandon, abandon what? Attachments, attachments! This is what we ought to understand.

念死无常 : 能断如牢家

如果我们自以为你很行的话，应该了解你行在哪里。自己烦恼一点点，小小的烦恼被它转过来，自己还觉得很了不起。啊！那种人真可怜。所以我们自命为勇士的，应该在这个上面把握得住！能够呢把世间上面的这种杂染的事情一刀两断，这个才真的是牢狱—“能断如牢家”。其他的世间的人—庸浊凡夫，这种人不可能，不能离开，离开什么？欲，欲！这就是这个我们应该了解的。
