【The Varieties of Karma】- Adeptly understand what they want and need (2)

Do you remember when we are in the section on relying on the teachers, among the nine attitudes that were cited from the Array of Stalks sutra, what was the first attitude? Do you remember? Like a dutiful child, exactly. What is the attitude like of a dutiful child? It is talking about one's mind! On all occasions, it is not about how one feels, "I feel that it is this way." But it is about what the parents think. This point is particularly important for the modern-day people. Why is this especially important for the modern -day people? In this age where science has flourished, there is a great difference [in knowledge] in just a matter of years, a very great difference. That was how I used to think as well. When I see the young people now, ah, that type of attitude is even more evident! I used to feel that for my parents, since they lived in a different time, so they do not understand things now. But if you look around now, this attitude is even pronounced! There is no need to wait 20 to 30 years for people to be well- studied [to have this kind of attitude], but even in the elementary and middle schools, children will tell their parents, "This is too old-fashioned. It is out-dated. You do not know anything!" As if the child is the only one who knows. Therefore, in this mundane world, the wrong views are strengthened and the situation is becoming worse. There are more people who would reason with you than ever, yet everything in this world is becoming worse. The reason is right here.

业果 : 善解亲意-2

记得不记得，我们事善知识引用《华严》当中的九心，第一个心是什么？大家还记得不记得？如孝子心，一点都没错。如孝子心什么？他讲他的心欸！他处处地方，不是以他自己的心里边觉得“我觉得怎么想的”，而是以父母的心里面怎么想的，这一点对现代的人尤其重要。为什么对现代的人尤其重要？因为现代的科学特别发达的时代，这个前后差得很多、很多。我当年自己也是这样想，现在看见年轻人哪，啊，又变本加厉！我当年总觉得父母啊，他们那个时代不一样，那么不懂了。现在呢，更是如此了！不要说等到二十几岁、三十几岁念了很多书，还在小学里乃至中学里边，对自己的父母说：“这些老朽了，这个落伍了，他根本什么都不懂！”好像就是他懂。所以这个世间哪，邪见增上，每况愈下，讲道理是越讲越多，但是呢世间的样样东西是每况愈下，道理就在这里。
