Engaging in the Bodhisattva Deeds:425
"From nonvirtue comes suffering;
How can I truly be free of this?"
It is fitting that at all
times, day and night, I
think only of this.

Oh! We know now. Sufferings come from nonvirtues. Well then we should think about how, how can we be freed from suffering? He did not talk about happiness. Actually, when you are freed from suffering, you will be happy, right? Therefore, to put it simply, this is about this day and night. This is what we truly need to do now!

And also:
For the Sage has said that conviction
And to constantly meditate
on fruitional effects Is the
root of this conviction.

Buddha has told us "conviction" - what is conviction? It is an auspicious view. This view is not something that is normally held by us. With the views that we normally hold, when others say something [contrary to it], then you would say, "Oh yes, [that makes sense]!" Even though I had originally wanted to do this, but when others say something [else], "Oh yes, [that makes sense]!" Just like that and your mind wavers. When someone tells you this place is good, you will go there. When someone else tells you that place is good, then you go there. When someone says reciting the Buddha's name is good, you will recite the Buddha's name. Then later when someone else tells you that practicing Zen is good, so you go to practice Zen. At a later time, another person tells you that to learn the teaching is good, so you learn the teaching. It's over for you [if you act this way]! You will have put in all this time to no avail.

业果 : 昼夜恒时思惟脱苦

如《入行论》云:“苦从不善生,如何定脱此,我昼夜恒时,理应思惟此。”

哦!现在晓得了,苦是从恶业所生起的,那么怎么样要想,怎么样才能够从苦当中透脱出来呢?他没说快乐,实际上,苦透脱出来嘛就是快乐了嘛,对吧?所以简单来说,这是一个事情包括了的全部。我们现在真正要求的什么?要求的就是这个嘛!所以我们昼夜应该思惟这个道理,这才是我们现在真正要做的呀!

又云:“能仁说胜解,一切善品本,又此之根本,恒修异熟果。”

佛就告诉我们,说“胜解”—什么叫胜解啊?就是殊胜的见解,这个见解是,不是平平常常,平常我们的一种见解被人家一说,“对啊!”我本来想这样,被人家一说,“对呀!”这样,心里面就动摇了。有人告诉你,这个地方好,你就到这个地方;有人告诉你,那个地方好,你就到那里去;有人说念佛好,你就念佛;等一下告诉你参禅好,你又参禅;到那时候告诉你学教好,你又学教,那你完了!不晓得弄了半天是一无是处。
