【Going for Refuge to the Three Jewels】- Six Attitudes of Offering

【The second aspect of offerings, the attitudes, is as follows. When you make these ten types of offerings, there are six attitudes】

The above speaks of action, the way we offer and our behavior. Below is attitude, what kind attitude should we have. Divided into 6

【that will render immeasurable the result of even a small offering to any of the three jewels.】

No matter Buddha, Dharma or the Sangha, this applies to any, needless to say all of them. If you can do this constantly, the result will be incredible! At this place, if you can contemplate it a little, just contemplate a little, there will be immeasurable result! You will obtain immeasurable benefits which will issue such great result. Therefore, when we make any offering, we should understand this.

【You should make offerings with the thoughts that (1) there is no higher field of good qualities】

All good qualities will come from this, whether it is the Buddha, the Dharma or The Sangha. If you can respectfully offer, there will be these great benefits.

【(2) there is no higher benefactor;】

Why? This is because all benefits of the mundane world and supramundane world comes from this.

【(3) he is the best of all living beings;】

This is because He is true and only He is precious and worthy.

皈依 : 供养三宝的意乐1

【由如是等，兴供养时，有六意乐，】

上面是说加行，我们供养的方式、行为。下面就是意乐，我们应该以哪一种心理，又分六种。

【能于三宝随一之所，少分思惟，而生无量广大果利，】

不管是佛、法、僧，随一，何况是全部。你能够恒常，不得了！这个地方“少分”，少分地思惟，就能够生出广大的果利喔！就得到无量无边的大利益，结这样的好的果报。所以我们做任何一个供养的时候要了解：

【一者无上大功德田，】

这个一切的功德从这个地方来的，不管是佛、法、僧，你能够恭敬供养的话，就有这么大的好处。

【二者无上有大恩德，】

为什么？一切世、出世间的种种好处，都从这个地方来的。

【三者一切有情中尊，】

因为这个才是真正的、唯一的可尊可贵之处。
