【Cultivating Ethical Behaviour】- contemplate according to the teachings, the sins and non-virtues are stopped

Thus, if you can truly contemplate as such, the more you contemplate, the happier you become. Why are you happy? It is because if you contemplate according to the teachings, the sins and non-virtues are stopped. The sins and non-virtues are stopped, the afflictions are cleared away, and the merits are increased. What are the subjective aspects [or mental behaviour] of afflictions? You feel distressed and vexed! If you are able to stop them, of course you will be happy! It's just like that. What is the difference here? It is what has been said earlier. If you do not conscientiously reflect on the meaning of the teachings, it's much like how we are now, ah, when we hear it, we know it. It's still alright when we hear it. But after we hear it and explain it, as the book closes, your mind does not change. What is that? That would be not being conscientious. You have not truly thought about it! That is why this tells us, even if you know just a little, if you can follow what you know and do so accordingly, even a little bit, there will be benefits. The more you know, the more you can practice. The more you know, the greater will be the effect.

业果 : 如法思维，挡住罪恶

你真正地能够去想的话，这想得越多是越高兴。这 个为什么高兴？因为他如法地思惟的话，这个罪恶挡住了。罪恶挡住了，烦恼消除了，功德增长了。烦恼的行相是什么？心里苦苦恼恼嘛！你挡住了当然开开心心嘛！就这样。差别在什么地方呢？就说前面所说的，所知法义放逸转的话，就像我们现在，哎呀，听的时候听懂了，讲的时候可以，等到了听完了、讲完了书本一合，你脑筋里还是老样子。那个是什么？放逸转，你没有真正去想啊！现在才告诉我们的，哪怕你是懂得一点点，你能够随着它去做，懂得一点点随着它去做，都有义利；懂得更多随着它去做更多，懂得越多是产生的效果越大。
