53B 22’07” Vol 7 of Lamrim Commentary P178 L6 Master Jih-Chang’s Discourse

The first thing to learning the teaching is to know that you are sick. After you know that you are sick, you want to find a doctor. After you have found the doctor, he will prescribe the medicine to you. Then you earnestly make efforts to practice according to the instructions. That is when you use the mirror of teaching on yourself to discover: Ah! My body and mind behave so despicably! That is when we bite down our teeth to fight with it. We do not fight with others. You need not have disputes with others. You should have disputes with yourself and say, “How come I am so inferior, I must fight you!” That is when you become able, that is when you become able.

业果 : 病时跟谁斗?

修学佛法第一个要晓得病,晓得了病以后要找医生,找了医生以后要开那个药,然后殷勤努力地如法修持。所以那时候拿这个法的镜子照自己,发现自己:啊!说我身心上面这么个差呀!那个时候才真正要咬紧牙关跟它斗的时候。现在我们不是跟外人斗,你不必跟人家去争辩,要跟自己争辩,说:「我怎么这么差,我一定要斗过你!」那时候你就有办法了,那个时候你就有办法了。
