【 Reflecting on your Future Life 三恶趣苦】Did we create the causes to be born in hell? 有没有造到地狱的因？

【Reflecting on your Future Life】- Did we create the causes to be born in hell?

Therefore, let us examine if we have created the causes to be born in hell.

【whether or not you have previously created the conditions for being born in these miserable realms, whether or not you are currently creating them, whether or not you would consider creating them in the future. 】

Have I previously created them? Am I currently creating them? Also consider what I will do in the future too.

【Since you will go there if you have created them, are creating them, or would consider creating them, 】

If you had created them before, are currently creating them, or would consider creating them in the future, after you do these things, you will have to go there. Where? The three miserable realms. The three miserable realms are such a horrifying place, with great suffering and torment. Yet if you created [the conditions] then you will not be able to escape it.

【think, "If I am born there, what will I do then; will I be able to do anything?" 】

Once I’m there, what can I do? Will I be able to forbear it? This is something we need to reflect on thoroughly, and analyze thoroughly!

三恶趣苦 : 有没有造到地狱的因？

所以现在我看看，我们有没有造到地狱去当中的这个因？

【先作未作，现作未作，为念不念当来应作，】

以前有没有作？现在作了不作？还要看看我以后应该怎么办。

【若先已作，或现正作，或念后时而当作者，则当生彼。】

假定你以前已经作了，或现在又正在作，或者以后还要作，那么作了这个东西，就要到那个地方去。到哪里？三恶道当中，那个三恶道就是这么恐怖、这么苦恼的地方。如果造了，那一定逃不走，一定要去。

【若生彼中，尔时我当何所作耶！我能忍乎？】

一旦到那个地方，我能做些什么？我能忍受得了吗？唉！这个事情我们现在要好好地思惟，好好地观察呀！
