星雲法師：佛光菜根譚之勵志篇
百年大樹，必經多少風霜摧殘 百丈高樓，必經多少物力艱辛 百年老店，必經多少興衰滄桑 百歲老翁，必經多少坎坷考驗 An ancient tree survives wind and frost. A skyscraper is raised with money and sweat. An old business has its ups and downs. An old man is tested by misfortune. 成功的裡面，包含了多少辛酸 名人的雙肩，承受了多少壓力 榮耀的背後，付出了多少代價 偉大的成就，奉獻了多少犧牲 To succeed,one needs hardship. To be celebrated,one needs pressure. To gain honor,one needs to labor. To achieve,one needs to sacrifice and be dedicated. 千裡道路要靠小石鋪成 萬仞山峰要從小路攀登 美麗織錦要用小針繡出 幸福人生要存小心走過 A thousand-mile road is paved with tiny pebbles. Narrow roads lead to high mountains. Gorgeous embroidery requires a fine needle. A happy life needs attentive planning. 飛鴿千裡傳書，才有人豢養 駿馬萬裡奔馳，才有人喜愛 海豚盡力演出，才有人喝采 做人力爭上游，才有人欣賞 Pigeons are bred to fly letters afar. Horses are praised that race like the wind. Dolphins are loved that entertain greatly. People are admired who strive to advance. 重復的舉止，會變成習慣 定型的習慣，會變成個性 個性的所向，會決定命運 命運的好壞，會決定一生 Repeated action becomes habit. Habit becomes character. Character becomes fate. Fate rules your life. 不肯回顧傳統的人，沒有過去 不願瞻望前景的人，沒有未來 不能把握當下的人，沒有現在 不能主宰自己的人，沒有永恆 Those who don't look back have no past. Those who don't look forward have no future. Those who don't seize the moment have no present. Those who don't master themselves will not change society. 能忍一時之氣，自能增長無限福德 能起一念之善，自能消弭無限罪業 Avoid a moment's anger and gain endless merit. A moment of compassion diminishes endless bad karma. 寧可奮斗一生，不能喪志一時 寧可吃虧一時，不可懊悔一生 It is better to think about improving your future than to be discouraged by one bad moment. It is better to take a momentary loss than to regret the rest of your life. 榮耀來到時，要「檢查自己的心」，否則我慢的高牆會隔絕自己的視野 煩惱臨頭時，要「檢查自己的心」，否則瞋怒的火焰會焚毀自己的功德 When honor comes,examine your mind,lest a wall of arrogance block your view. When trouble comes,examine your mind,lest the fire to hatred consume your merits. 外境紛亂時，要「檢查自己的心」，否則貪欲的洪流會淹沒自己的意志 得失憂患時，要「檢查自己的心」，否則疑嫉的邪風會吹垮自己的信心 When your world is in chaos,examine your mind,lest the torrent of worry drown your will. When you are worried about gain and loss,examine your mind,lest the winds of suspicion and jealousy blast your confidence. 人生中，每一次的經驗都是前進的基石 生命裡。每一次的成敗都是未來的借鏡 Every experience is a footstep into the future. Every failure or success is a glimpse into the future. 對人不侵犯，侵犯別人，必將見棄於人 責己不推诿，推诿責任，必難獲信於人 Don't violate people's rights,lest you be rejected by them. Don't shirk responsibility,lest you lose your credit. 遭毀謗時能自省，則德曰隆 聞贊譽時心謙下，則道曰增 If you can examine yourself when you are slandered,you will be more virtuous. If you can be modest when you are commended,your practice and cultivation will be strengthened. 後步不捨，就無法跨步向前 前執不除，就無法客觀明理 Without moving the hind leg,one cannot move forward. Without getting rid of attachment,one cannot be objective,intelligent,and open-minded. 開口動舌無益於人，戒之莫言 舉心動念無益於人，戒之莫起 舉足動步無益於人，戒之莫行 舉手動力無益於人，戒之莫為 If what you say cannot benefit others,don't say it. If what you think cannot benefit others,don't think it. If what you do cannot benefit others,don't do it. 時刻見人不是，此即種下諸惡之根苗 時刻見己之非，此乃廣開萬善之門戶 時刻責怪別人，必定自己有諸多錯失 時刻檢討己過，必能獲得別人的歡喜 Constant fault finding plants evil seeds. Reflecting on your own faults opens the door of good deeds. Those who constantly blame others must have seen such faults and shortcomings in themselves. Making self-examination always makes you welcome. 能容小人是大人，大人無所不容 能處薄德是厚德，厚德無所不德 Being able to tolerate mean people is the mark of great and magnani-mous beings. Being able to get along with mean people keeps one virtuous. 不誇小善，終積大德，正如涓流，點滴匯聚，終成大海 不除小惡，終必敗事，則如磨石，不見其滅，曰有所損 Not bragging about good deeds accumulates merits,as streams flow into the sea. Not mending minor flaws leads to failure,as a stone is worn away day by day,unnoticed. 猜忌，使我們遠離信任的目光 懷疑，使我們錯過幸福的召喚 嫉妒，使我們模糊朋友的面貌 妄想，使我們失去現世的擁有 Distrust loses us the trust of others.

Rivers of malice wash away our good names. 貪圖虛名者易遭損 無德求福者易遭困 無功受祿者易遭辱 爭名奪利者易遭譴 Unmerited wealth is enfeebling. Unmerited reward is depressing. Unmerited fame is a trap. 不尊重自己者，容易取辱 不畏懼自己者，容易招禍 不自滿自高者，必能受益 不自是自豪者，必得人緣 The humble are humbled. The reckless shall fall. For the modest rich bounty. For compassion the world. 權重而不專擅者必賢 多金而不悭吝者必仁 才高而不傲物者可師 得意而不忘形者可敬 Rulers must be strong but not despots. Benefactors must be rich but not misers. Teachers must be smart but not pedants. Businessmen must be focused but not driven. 勿以惡小而可為，小惡如水穿石 勿以善小而不為，小善如息日增 勿以權大而可畏，權大久必自傾 勿以膽大而不畏，膽大久會自危 Avoid little bad deeds,which are like water dripping on rocks. Eventually the water breaks the rocks. Don't ignore little good deeds.They gather power day by day. Don't intimidate others with your power.It will decline sooner or later. Don't depend on your courage too much.It will get you into trouble. 自信者毀譽不能改其志 知足者權利不能變其節 靜心者恩怨不能亂其神 有德者是非不能擾其心 The good are unmoved by gossip. The serene are unmoved by hell. Hope and fear do not move the contented. Nor slander nor praise,as well. 無財非貧，無學為貧 無位非賤，無恥為賤 無壽非夭，無志為夭 無子非孤，無德為孤 Poverty is not lack of money,but lack of learning.

Blaming yourself is useless. Whining and blaming others makes things worse. 有力的人才會忍，有慧的人才能忍 忍是勇敢、擔當，忍是負責、奉獻的表現 Powerful and intelligent people can be tolerant. Tolerance reveals courage,ability,dedication,and responsibility. 有為者，雖泰山崩於前，仍「氣」定神閒，面不改色 無能者，一遇小事臨身，就「氣」急敗壞，驚慌失措 Able people are calm in crisis.

The wise know that a bad deed that helps somebody is far worse than one that helps nobody. 山珍海味少不了鹽 花語巧語當不了錢 功成名就少不了行 投機取巧少了不功 Salt makes a delicious dish sumptuous.
