记忆的游戏 [ 中英对照 ]

我们的染识记忆常把这颗本来清净的心污染了,圆满的心撕裂了,无碍的心制约了,就像一叶障目,令我们丢失每一个当下的美好。

记忆是习惯的积累、染识的相续,没有积累的意识我们会思维不动,会受不了的,因为你思维就要找个参照——过去的参照、习惯的参照、记忆的参照、别人作为的参照,要有参照我们才愿意去思考,所以我们一直被染识的记忆推动着我们的作为。

而圣者、智者则启用的是本净本具,直接用净识来审视世界,不重复,不积累,不丢失每一个当下的崭新、自由、安乐。那平时常忆佛念佛就变得尤为重要,就是令我们把佛的功德、智慧、慈悲、佛的身口意变成我们的记忆,在我们的记忆中凸显岀来,养成习惯,一动念便知是否失心了。

Robin编后语


在跟随师父慈法法师学习佛法的过程中,常有抑制不住的感动与受益,我真诚地愿意对同参道友尽一份供养的心,尽可能地把师父随机开示的记录整理分享给大家。记录的内容主要是日常生活中出现的某一个角度的问题,希望我们能够举一反三、触类旁通地去观察、觉悟整个人生,依法唤起对本净本具美妙的缘起作用,使我们的人生变得美好与丰富多彩。


更正说明

本平台栏目“生命之光·阳光早餐”上期文章 《疾病来源于潜意识 》 中,末段最后一句“唯心所照,唯识所现。”应为“唯心所造,唯识所现。” 特此更正。

感恩读友指正。欢迎大家继续关注指导本栏目的成长。南无阿弥陀佛。

Game of Memory

The memory of our contaminated consciousness often stains the inherent purity, splits up the intrinsic perfection, and constrains the innate unhindered nature of our heart, just like a tree that shields us from seeing the woods and make us lose each present beauty.

Memory is the accumulation of habits and the continuation of the contaminated consciousness as well. We can no longer think or endure without the accumulated consciousness. That is because when you think, you need something to refer to, such as your past, your habits, your memory and what others have done to you, etc. We are reluctant to think without references. And therefore we are always pushed to act by our contaminated consciousness.

Unlike us, a sage uses the inherent pure nature of our own, the pure consciousness, to observe the world directly. For him, there is neither repetition nor accumulation of his past memory, and therefore he will never lose any present newness, freedom, peace or happiness. So it’s very important to often keep the Buddha in mind. Let the merits, wisdom and compassion of Buddha as well as his body, speech and mind be our own memory or even the highlights in our memory, and develop this as our habit. Thus we will be fully aware of whether we lose our right mindfulness or not whenever a thought arises.

Editor's Note

While following our Master Cifa and learning Buddhism from him, very often I cannot help being moved by his targeted instructions and benefit a lot from them. Now, with a sincerely offering heart for you my fellow practitioners, I’d like to try as much as I can to share his instructions with all of you that I have recorded and sorted out. These series of records covered a number of problems from our daily life. Each problem is reflected from a specific perspective. I hope that we can learn by analog to observe and enlighten our whole life, so as, according to dharma, to arouse us to start using the inherent pure Buddha-nature as our wonderful arising condition, and make our life more beautiful, richer and more colorful.

Correction Statement

We hereby to correct, that in the article “Diseases Come from Subconsciousness” published last time in the column of The Light of Life ~ Sunshine Breakfast on this platform, there is an error in the last sentence of the last paragraph. “Everything is merely a reflection of heart and a manifestation of consciousness.”should be “Everything is created by heart and manifested by consciousness. ”

Thanks to the reader for pointing out the mistake. Welcome to continue to pay attention to and give guidance to the growth of this column. Namo Amitabha!
