星雲法師：佛光菜根譚之寶典篇
世間以五欲六塵為樂 達人以禅悅法喜為真 世間以立德立功為務 達人以證悟般若為要 Ordinary people indulge in five desires and six senses;practitioners look for harma joy in meditation. Ordinary people think of being virtuous and making achievements;practitioners focus on attaining prajna. 世間以百年長壽為久 達人以無量壽命為安 世間以迷信執我為真 達人以慈悲無我為實 Ordinary people look for long life;practitioners look for endless life in the Dharma. Ordinary people are attached to superstition;practitioners attend to ompassion and non-self. 真正的富有，是歡喜而不是財富 真正的貧窮，是無知而不是無錢 The real wealth in happiness,not money. The real poverty is ignorance,not want of money. 心生萬物隨識變，心有所主自能安 人生際遇隨業轉，視已經營聖凡分 Consciousness can manifest all things,good and bad;when your mind is healthy you are at peace. Lives are driven by karma;how you manage your life will make you a sage or a simpleton. 多欲為窮，知足眼前皆淨土 人生有定，通達身外總浮雲 Desire is poverty;contentment is the pureland. Destiny is decided by causes and conditions;wealth and position are floating clouds. 歷史有人，才成為歷史 人有歷史，才成其為人 People make history. History gives fame to people. 因緣如條件，條件具備，才能成事 自性如明鏡，明鏡無塵，才能照明 心地如田地，田地肥沃，才能種植 布施如播種，播種善緣，才能收成 Causes and conditions come before achievement. Buddha nature is like a bright mirror:it reflects brightly when not covered by dust. Mind is like a field:it produces when fertilized. Generosity is like sown seeds:they yield a good harvest. 修行如和煩惱作戰 勸信如對未來傳燈 般若如造世間橋梁 菩薩如作眾生慈母 Practice and cultivation defeat defilement. Converting others is handing down the light. Prajna is building a hridge. Bodhisattva is the nurturing mother. 愛語如春風 好言如冬陽 真心如光明 慚愧如璎珞 Loving words are like the spring breeze. Good words are like the winter sun. A sincere heart is like a lamp. Conscience is like a jewel. 求法如爬山 信仰如靠山 聞法如醫病 願力如根本 Seeking truth is climbing a mountain. Having faith is relying on truth. Hearing the teaching is curing an illness. The strength of vow,like a root,is deep. 平等應視人如已，立場互易 平等應泯除成見，消滅對待 平等應尊重包容，促進和諧 平等應建立共識 倡導文明 Equality means treating others as yourself and acting in their interests. Equality means getting rid of discrimination and biased thinking. Equality means tolerating others to promote harmony. Equality means shared ideas and civilization. 有心，即使十萬裡路也不算遠 無心，即使近在隔鄰也走不到 With will,a hundred thousand miles is not far. Without will,your neighbor is far away. 細胞基因可以改變人種品質 善惡因緣可以改變人生未來 The condition of our bodies depends on our genes. Our future depends on good or bad causes and conditions. 有道之人的身中，常有情理 有道之人的手中，常有事理 有道之人的口中，常有法理 有道之人的心中，常有天理 Those who follow t'ao（way）are gracious. Those who follow t'ao（way）are principled.

Wealth makes family peaceful. 真理能阻擋愚癡的邪風 柔和能消滅瞋怒的烈火 喜捨能對治貪欲的洪流 謙虛能鏟除驕慢的高山 Truth is a refuge from blizzards of ignorance. Compassion puts our the flames of hate. Charity wards off torrents of greed. Modesty flattens mountains of arrogance. “慈悲喜捨遍法界”這是內修的自我涵養 “惜福結緣利人天”這是外弘的利生化生 “禅淨戒行平等忍”這是治學的思想方針 “慚愧感恩大願心”這是自他的人格圓成 For self-cultivation,let compassion,love,joy,and calm fill the dharma-dhatu. To benefit others,cherish what you have and make good affinity. To learn,practice meditation,observe precepts,and show tolerance. To perfect yourself and others,be diligent and gracious to make a great vow. 地上的山水妙在丘壑之深邃 畫上的山水妙在筆墨之淋漓 夢中的山水妙在景象之變化 胸中的山水妙在位置之自如 Mountains are by nature splendid.

The Buddha's path is compassion for all,even enemies. The Buddha's path is dependent origination without discrimination of self and other. The Buddha's path is equality for all and no selfish desires. 一水貫通五湖四海 一月遍照萬國九州 一雨普潤三春草木 一雷覺醒大地群迷 一言決斷千古猶豫 一理貫通千差萬別 一心廣含十方虛空 一念慈悲萬眾受益 Rivers flow to lakes and seas. The moon shines everywhere.

One compassionate thought can save the world. 力田不如逢春 善仕不如遇緣 巧辯不如誠實 考官不如選佛 Prefer happiness to drudgery. Prefer good conditions to skill. Prefer honesty to eloquence.

Don't resent the able:employ them. 物不在奇，缺之則珍 才不在高，適用則優 施不在多，即時則貴 道不在深，應機則妙 Ordinary things are cherished when scarce. Ordinary people shine in the right vocation. A small gift at the right time has great worth. A small lesson has great value when it contains a priceless truth. 樹高萬丈不離根 花開千朵不離心 聳雲高樓不離地 萬乘之尊不離民 A tree cannot grow high without roots.

Gratitude is the magic wand that turns every place into a pureland. 蒸氣是雨水之因，有蒸氣之因，才有雨水之果 理想是現實之因，有理想之因，才有現實之果 Evaporation is the cause,and rain the effect;rain is the fruit of evapo-ration. The ideal is the cause,and its realization the effect;realization is the fruit of an ideal. 種善因得善果，種惡因得惡果，人是自己的圓丁 存好心得好報，存歹心得歹報，心是自己的主人 Good or bad fruit comes from good or bad causes and conditions;you are your own gardener.

Mind perseveres if not stirred by distractions. 造惡如欠債，欠債當受報 受報如還債，還債即解脫 Doing evil leads to karmic retri-bution. Karmic retribution pays your debt and leads to liberation. 幽默是睿智的禅心，它是自我解嘲，而非取笑別人 诙諧是智慧的言談，它是自我調侃，而非諷刺別人 Humor is the Ch'an mind of wis-dom that laughs at self,not others. Humor is the speech of wisdom that mocks self,not others. 因果並非命定，認命的人不會進步 業報由於自造，玩命的人不能善終 The law of causality is not destiny;those who yield to destiny cannot progress. Karmic justice is determined by actions;those who act thoughtlessly cannot earn karmic merit. 父母是幼年的偶像 老師是學生的偶像 聖賢是成人的偶像 佛陀是眾生的偶像 Parents are models for children. Teachers are models for students.

Though the good half seems to be losing,it will win in the long run. Thouht evil seizes the initial advantage,it will fail in the end. 歲寒三友：松、竹、梅 宇宙三要：天、地、人 人生三德：智、仁、勇 心中三毒：貪、瞋、癡 Three friends of the cold winter are pine,bamboo,and plum.

A room that has been dark a thousand years grows bright from a little lamp. Sailors are saved from the rocks by a lighthouse. Drivers are guided by traffic sig-nals. 禮佛更要學佛 講經更要讀經 念善更要行善 修心更要發心 Don't just revere the Buddha;study the teachings. Don't just teach the sutras;read them. Don't just think about doing good;do it. Don't just cultivate your mind;take action. 真理從清醒而來 善良從體諒而來 氣質從智慧而來 美麗從慈悲而來 Truth comes from awakening the mind. Kindness comes from consideration. Good temperament comes from wisdom. Beauty comes from compassion. 自然的可敬，是因為生命與自然相互依存 生命的寶貴，是因為生命由眾緣和合而成 自然，就是道，道，就是自然的隨緣生活 生命，就是力，力，就是生命的燈燈相續 Nature is majestic because it is life. Life is precious because of causes and conditions. Nature is the t'ao（way）；t'ao is the life of causes and conditions. Life is power;power is handing down the light of life. 死，是生的開始 生，是死的准備 生也未嘗生，死也未嘗死 生，是緣生故有；死，是緣滅故無 無生也無死，無死也無生 Death is the beginning of birth;birth is preparation for death. Birth is not truly birth;death is not truly death. Birth arises from causes and con-ditions;death arises from destruction of causes and conditions. Birth and death have no existence. 從一砂一石中看到無限的世界 從飛湍鳴澗中聽到真理的聲音 從剎那因緣中感覺永恆的未來 從明月清風中體悟清淨的自性 See endless worlds in a grain of sand. Hear truth in the roar of raging waters. Grasp eternity in a moment's cause and condition. Discern your Buddha nature in the bright moon and cool breeze. 古寺的鐘聲，雖無翅，也能飛揚 感人的文章，雖無聲，卻能印心 池塘的荷花，雖凋謝，但能留香 世間的偉人，雖犧牲，必能傳後 The sound of ancient temple bells drifts far without wings. Effective writing stirs us though it is silent. A withered lotus remains fragrant. The spirits of the great survive death. 鳥叫蟲鳴、飛泉流瀑，這是自然的音樂 萬紫千紅、綠葉婆娑，這是天然的圖畫 稚子童言、肺腑剖白，這是本然的詞篇 燦爛笑容、自在神情，這是渾然的雕塑 Birdsong,hum of insects,and waterfalls are the chorus of nature. Bright flowers and green leaves are the landscape of nature. Laughter of children is the textbook of nature. Smiles of delight are the portrait of nature. 沒有掌聲的講演，不會精彩叫座 沒有贊美的兒童，不會乖巧聽話 沒有花朵的庭院，不會美麗動人 沒有配料的菜肴，不會色香俱全 A garden without flowers is not pretty. A dish without sauce does not please. A child who is not praised is not clever or good. A speech without applause does not move people. 與其為世上的刀兵劫難而悲憤 何如傾聽夜半屠門傳出的哀號聲 與其為社會的災禍頻傳而歎息 何如傾聽平日碗盤眾生的怨恨聲 Better to hear the midnight cries from the slaughterhouses than to be troubled by war and calamity. Better to hear the moaning of the slaughtered animals in our plates than to bewail unending calamity in society. 自然界，梅花愈冷愈芬芳 生物鏈，細菌愈衍愈進步 人世裡，心性愈練愈堅強 宇宙間，真理愈辯愈明白 Plum flowers grow fragrant is cold weather. Germs grow resistant through adversity. Minds grow determined through suffering. Truth grows clear through debate. 自然則和，違反定律，就會導至紛亂 自然則順，矯枉過正，終將帶來弊患 自然則美，渾然天成，最能傳達神韻 自然則成，隨順因緣，必能水到渠成 Nature is harmony;resistance is anarchy. Nature makes favorable conditions;excess makes trouble. Nature is beauty;every good thing has charm. Nature announces success:pursue causes and conditions.
