阳光早餐 | 两个人的交流
The Light of Life
Sunshine Breakfast
与没有信仰的人交流，有时候可能会受到减损。其实不是他要减损你，而是他的心理背景造成了减损。但你可以把这个减损接引到本质性空上来，知道任何言说与作为带来的减损只是个表面现象。就好像昨天发生的事情，到今天来看它，就像梦一样，是没有实质的。那么你对这个减损就不会太在意了，反而和对方交流的时候，能给予对方支持和利益。
但是要求和指责要不得，这是个关键点。 一旦你要求、指责，对方可能会产生排斥和对抗，真诚交流的机会就没有了。
对方无论传递给你的是什么，其实只是对方的一种习惯、一个记忆的重复，没有实质。力量再大也能消融在本质性空、无一法可得上。
知一切幻，行一切善，就是个娱乐者。娱乐者可以给别人安心，因为你了解人人本来也都可以这么安乐的，只是对方没有找到这个方法。所以可以通过回向、祝福，把这种信仰带来的利益和安乐传递给对方，这样的交流就有意义了。

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。
The communication
between people with and without faith
When we analyze the mindset of people with faith or without, we notice that people with faith are often orderly and clear about what they should and shouldn't do. They normally have a baseline in upholding their belief and get supported by the whole dharma lineage system. On the contrary, people without faith don’t have a belief as their reliance within thus usually have no order in doing things. They lack accurate references when making choices, so they easily get upset.
We might be negatively influenced if we interact with people without faith. It is not so much about the people but their mindset, that actually affect us negatively. But if we could see the negative effect from the perspective of emptiness, it would only be an illusory phenomenon, like a dream when we look back what happened yesterday. Nothing is left except for the memory. As a result, we will not care too much about what they have done to us. Instead we can benefit and support them every time we communicate with them.
But the key is not to demand or criticize others. Otherwise they may be reluctant to open their heart and we may lose the chance to sincerely communicate with them.
No matter what people deliver to us, it is just his habit or memory repetition void of any substance. Although the habit is powerful, it will eventually dissolve in the emptiness.
By acknowledging the fact that everything is illusory but we still do all good things, we can become an dharma entertainer, who can comfort others. Because we know everyone possesses happiness inherently, though they haven’t found the method yet. So, we can pass on to them our merits and happiness brought by the faith. This makes communications meaningful.

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.
