【Going for Refuge to the Three Jewels】- Offerings that are not contaminated
【9) Offerings not contaminated with the afflictions are offerings with six qualities: they are made (1) manually by yourself, not making others do them out of contempt, carelessness, or laziness; (2) respectfully; (3) without distraction; (4) free of the afflictions in that they are not mixed with attachment and the like; (5) without expectation of receiving wealth and service from kings and so on who have faith in the Buddha; and (6) with proper material accompaniments.】
Well then, what is “not contaminated”? That is though you have offered it, but if you have an attitude of “contempt,” of “carelessness,” of “laziness,” and you ask others to do with these attitudes, though you have the money, [you would act in this way,] “Just take it! Take it and offer to the Buddha!” This is not right. Of course, this appears to be helping others to make offerings but in reality? You have done so with contempt. With this act itself, the main issue with this is the lack of respect. You are careless and muddleheaded. This is the state of the mind. Therefore (to do it right) you want to manually make the offering. It is with respect and sincerity that you offer it and you should do so “without distraction.” Then when you offer, you are “free of the afflictions in that they are not mixed with attachment and the like.” What does this mean? This is the state that we are in now when we offer to Buddha, “Oh, Bodhisattva! I offer you three kilograms of banana, [bless that] I will have great harvest in the next season!” This is it. You need to pay attention to this. [Instead], what should we be doing at all times? We should be dedicating (the merits) toward unsurpassed enlightenment.

皈依 : 非染污供养
【非染污供养者，谓不由轻蔑放逸懈怠而教他供，自手供养，殷重供养，不散漫心而设供养，不以贪等杂染供养，不于信佛国王等所为得利敬而为供养，以随顺物而设供养。】
那么，什么是“非染污”？这个虽然你供养了，如果你心里边“轻蔑”，如果是“放逸”，如果“懈怠”，这种情况去教别人；你虽然有钱，“拿去！拿去供供佛啦！”这个不行。当然这个是教别人，实际上呢？就是你轻蔑心，这个本身就是，最主要的重点在这个地方就是，心里面没有恭敬心，马马虎虎、含含糊糊，就是这种状态。所以要自己亲手去供养，要殷重、殷切地供养，“不散漫心”。然后呢供的时候“不以贪等杂染”，这是什么意思？我们现在就是这个状态，跑得去供一个佛：“哎呀，菩萨啊！我供你三斤香蕉，然后我这个香蕉田下年丰收啊！”这样。这个要注意，我们处处地方干什么？要回向无上菩提。
