【 Cultivating Ethical Behaviour 业果】When you caution yourself, there is advantage to doing this. 一警惕，就有好处

【Cultivating Ethical Behaviour】- When you caution yourself, there is advantage to doing this.

Hence this was said again and again that if you do not reflect, analyze, apply the remedies and cultivate in accordance to the teachings, even though you might know a little teaching, you will still end up being lazy and follow your afflictions. The teachings that you know will not be applied. Hence then the nonvirtuous karma will continue to ripen. Far too many of us fall into this type of situation. This is especially so as I observe, as I observe myself. I have exactly this problem. Oh, when I speak, I know that I appear to have good reasoning. I think you might feel that way as well, [you think that] I teach well! But when I question myself, I am often in fear. Though I speak well, in my arising thoughts, I can’t say that these [bad thoughts] do not occur. Though they aren’t frequent, that’s true. Thus I will often caution myself. There is an advantage to doing this. When we caution ourselves, usually we will begin to feel ill at ease whether standing or sitting! Buddhism is really beautiful. As soon as you caution yourself, you will immediately feel an unparallel delight. Eh! That’s the great advantage.

业果 : 一警惕，就有好处

所以前面一再说，你呀如果不如理地思惟、观察、对治、修行，纵然晓得一点法，你结果还是随着烦恼放逸而转，晓得的法没有用场，到那时候恶业照样地来。现在我们太多都是这种现象，尤其是观察、观察我自己，我就是这个毛病。哦，讲起来我自己晓得讲得头头是道，我想你们也觉得吧—喔唷，讲得很好！可是我自己问起来，我心里面常常害怕，说得头头是道，可是起心动念相应的时间啊，不是没有，的确不多，这是千真万确的，所以我自己经常很警惕。它有一个好处，平常我们一警惕呀，在那坐立不安哪！佛法这个很美，你一警惕，你就马上觉得欢喜无比，欸！它有这样的好处。
