【 Cultivating Ethical Behaviour 业果】Feeling of cannot get close to the teachings 碰不上正法的感受

【Cultivating Ethical Behaviour】- Feeling of cannot get close to the teachings

【This verse says that a great gulf exists between us, ordinary people, and the teaching. This verse is a teaching that the gift-bearing brahmin Subhasita explained to the bodhisattva prince Candra after the prince had offered one thousand gold coins to him. 】

What is said describes [the distance] between the two parties of us, ordinary people, and the teaching. Ah, we are this far apart! This is something we must use to seriously examine ourselves. If you do not check yourself, you will not be able to tell. No need to mention that this is something very intangible and very abstract to begin with. If you can truly analyze yourself, you will feel that there is nothing more real than this! But if you do not analyze according to the teachings, you will feel hollow. Why? The karma that manifests in our minds now, they are things that are blurry in our mind now. You cannot even get close to the teachings. If you cannot even get close to the teachings, then in your mind, the teachings are that hollow! You should know what the reason is for this. This is how we are inferior. This is where we are inferior.

业果 : 碰不上正法的感受

【此说我等凡庸与法，二者中间，如彼诸喻，极相隔远。此颂是月菩萨从持善说婆罗门前，供千两金，所受之法。】

上面这个话，是说我们普通人跟法两者当中，唉呀，差得这么远！这个一定要认真地自己检点，你不检点你根本就看不出来，何况这个东西就是那么空洞的、那么抽象的。如果你真正地去观察的话，你到那时候感觉得实在得不能再实在！但是如果你不经过如法地观察的话，你觉得空空洞洞的。为什么呀？那就是我们现在心里的现行这种业，现在心里就是模模糊糊那些东西，你根本碰不上那个法。碰不上那个法的话，在你心里的感受上面跟那个法，就这么空洞啊！要晓得这个是什么原因，这个就是我们的差，差就差在这里。
