生命之光·阳光早餐
信仰话题系列短文二
有信仰的教育，
会给我们带来很健康的生活状态。
好比说每天吃饭的时候都有一个祈祷，就是追忆自己饮食的来源、衣食的来源。不要小看这个祈祷！不管相信真主也好、相信上帝也好，还是有其他什么信仰也好，都有个祈祷，他们的家庭、人际关系都是相互祝福的。
我们生活中如果少了祈祷与祝福，就很迷茫。拿东西就吃，甚至吃的时候还会抱怨，还会说这个不好、那个不好，会指责这些给你付出的人，找麻烦，这肯定是不健康的。指责、抱怨都是没有底线的作为。做事没有一个参照，就会无端地发挥自己的某些东西，去强制于人。私欲特别强，结果会带来迷失、烦躁。
因为人迷失了，就容易烦躁，烦躁就容易伤害自己、伤害别人。这就是没有信仰的一个特点。
有信仰基础的人，他不敢。有一种力量，会让这个“自我”恭敬、尊重、有方向。他们看到什么都生感恩想，都要去祝福祈祷，这样就有机会来调整自己，帮助他人，完成生命正面、积极的作为。明确自己的人生方向，自然就会祝福于世间。

The Power of Faith
—— prayer and blessing
Religious education will bring us a very healthy life. For example, if there is a prayer before a meal every day, we remember the source of this food. Don’t underestimate this prayer. Whether people believe in God, Buddha, or Allah, they all have such a prayer. So their family and interpersonal relationships are mutually blessed.
If we lack these prayers and blessings in our lives, we will be lost. For example, instead of being grateful, we can even complain while eating, blaming the food is not good or blaming the people who help us. This is definitely wrong. Accusations and complaints are actions done by the people who have no bottom line. Without religion as a reference, we will do whatever we want to, like imposing our will upon others. The strong selfishness will lead to lost and irritability. Lost people easily get irritated. Irritability can hurt both themselves and others. This is a feature of no faith.
The people who have a religious belief dare not to do so, for there is a power driving them to respect everyone and everything or to have a clear life direction. No matter what they encounter, they would feel grateful and thus want to bless or pray for it. Thus they have the opportunity to adjust themselves, to help others, and to fulfill the positive activities in their life. People will bless the world if they are clear about their life direction.

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.
