【Cultivating Ethical Behaviour】- Being close to sinful companions and slandering the teachings (2)

The best way to train in Buddhism is no more than meeting an excellent teacher. On the contrary, the worst case is no more than meeting a sinful teacher. A sinful teacher will give spurious teachings, something that appears right but it is actually wrong. But it would sound really reasonable! It is very easy to encounter situations as such, very easy to encounter situations as such. By then, if you had "abandoned" (slandered), so then, what do you do? The Buddha tells us, if you have incurred this sin, and in the seven years, you can "confess your fault three times a day." Then after properly striving for so long, you can [clear it way]. However, you will have to wait at least ten eons before you can attain "the level of forbearance." It will have to take that long before you can attain the first stage, the level of forbearance. It will have to take that long. The time it takes, this is very serious! Hence you have to make a note of this! You absolutely should not incur infractions against the vows, in particular the types of ethical discipline on slandering the teaching and generating hostility toward the Bodhisattva. The main thing is that with respect to the Mahayana teaching, prior to us having a correct understanding of it, we should absolutely not just follow along our own views to do whatever.

业果 : 近恶友而谤正法-2

真正修学佛法最好的是莫过于善知识,反过来,最严重的是莫过于恶知识。他恶知识说的有相似,似是而非的,讲起来很有道理哦!现在我们很容易碰见这种情况,很容易碰见这种情况。那个时候你如果说“诽谤”啦,那么,怎么办呢?佛就告诉我们,你犯了这个罪以后,七年当中,“一日三时于罪悔过”,要经过这么长如法如理努力,你可以。但是至少要经过十劫,才能够“得忍”。要经过这么长的时候,才能够证得初地无生法忍。这么长的时候,喔!这个时间,还是非常严重啊!所以,注意啊!这个戒是千万不能犯,尤其是谤正法戒,以及对菩萨的瞋恨心这一类。最主要的就对大乘教法,在我们没有正确认识之前啊,千万不要随意这个顺着自己的知见乱来。
