【The Varieties of Karma】- an attitude that is dominated

SOURCE 来源 :

【(5) an attitude that is dominated,】

This is without remedy. Therefore, similarly,

【due to these wrong views, by shamelessness】

There is no shame for having the wrong view and one may even feel pleased with himself! The truly horrendous thing is right here. One is obviously wrong but feels pleased with himself; one is obviously wrong but feels that he stands on principles; one is obviously wrong but does not admit to it, and he will find 120 excuses for it. This is the most difficult to breakthrough in learning Buddhism. It is right here. You absolutely need to pay attention to this! Therefore, the first thing that we should truly know is that we should know ourselves – I am an ordinary person who is stricken with the virulent sickness of ignorance since beginningless time. Even if you do not understand, if you often remind yourself of this, this will help you greatly.

业果 : 覆蔽心

【五有覆蔽心，】

就是没有对治。那么同样地，

【谓由邪见不觉羞耻，】

对于邪见不觉羞耻，自己还觉得得意咧！这个真正可怕的，就在这个地方。自己明明错了，自己还觉得得意；自己明明错了，还觉得有道理；自己明明错了，还觉得不承认，还有一百二十个藉口。这个修学佛法最难突破的，就是这个地方，这个千万注意啊！所以我们第一个真正要认识的，就是认识自己━我是个凡夫，自己在无始无明大病当中。就算你不懂，你常常提醒自己的话，这有很大的帮助。
