【Mind Intent on Liberation】- What it would be like if you have developed the measure of the attitude shared with persons of small capacity

What would it be like if you have developed the measure of the attitude that is shared with persons of small capacity? When you see in front of you, now, upon arriving at the dining hall, "Ah, this thing is really horrible. But I have no other alternative but to eat it!" So for your every bite, the scriptures tell us, it is as if you are eating your own son's flesh in the wilderness. The more you eat the worse you feel. As soon as you eat enough to be full, ah, you would quickly put it down. That's when it counts as having developed [the measure of the attitude]! If as you are eating it, the more you eat the more eager you are, then I am sorry, you have not even developed the attitude that is shared with a person of small capacity. In this case, if you feel happy, then you would be absolutely wrong!

希求解脱 : 共下士之量的现象

我们共下士之量生起什么现象？一看见眼前现在，一跑到斋堂里，「唉呀，这个东西可怕，但是我不能不吃它！」所以你每吃一口，佛经上面告诉我们，如旷野食子肉想。你越吃是越难受，吃得可以饱了，唉呀，赶快放下来，那个才是生起哦！如果你吃的时候越吃越起劲的话，对不起，连它共下士都没有。如果在这种情况，居然喜乐的话，那完全错了！
