在传灯法会上的开示

恒实长老

(2016年7月25日晚于万佛楼)

I am going to speak first in English and then translate for myself in Chinese. Our summer camp is quickly drawing to a close , and at the moment everyone will have a lamp , and deng in your hand and you ' ll be burning. You have a small piece of fire in your hand. Please know that that fire consumes and purifies every mind. In the same way , the fire of wisdom in our minds consumes inners , like aflames. As the fire consumes ignorance in purifies our mind , and brings us wisdom directly from the source. that ' s one contemplation. Another contemplation is very useful for us , It is truth that when you have a single light , a single deng or a candle , it doesn ' t matter how long the darkness in the room has been dark. in only takes one single candle to break apart darkness in the room for hundreds or thousands of years. That lamp ' s wisdom in your hand will break apart the darkness in the room in dark for hundreds or thousands of years. That is the power of wisdom. Don ' t feel like my ignorance so heavy , my obstacal so heavy , that I can never be wants. That is absolutely incorrect. If you have a single lamp of wisdom in your mind. It doesn ' t matter how long we have been confused or set down and wisdom will break dark or confusion . And the third contemplation is , let ' s do not fight with each other. Let ' s complete the merge with each other. So , after a summer camp , our wisdom force all into the world to make the world a better place , and we will never find ourselves in conflict with other people ' s wisdom. No matter which religion , no matter what the belief they had , if we have the buddhist wisdom in our heart , we will completely urge with every other kind wisdom. That ' s what I speak do.

我们夏令营快结束了,今天晚上有传灯仪式,大家做三种观想。等一下各位手上都会拿着一盏灯,灯象征着智慧、光明,这个光明是清净一切的,就等于智慧在我们心里,清净我们自己的心。我们有这个智慧,我们心里的无明都变化了,这是一种观想。第二种观想,就是说,哪盏灯到一个房间,无论那个房间黑暗多少年、几千年,几千年的黑暗,只需要一盏灯,都会把千年的黑暗照破,只需要一盏灯,无论黑暗多久了,都会被这个灯光照破。各位不要以为自己的无明啊、糊涂啊、烦恼啊、颠倒啊太重,佛的智慧不会照破那个黑暗,这是错的念头。佛的智慧到我们的心里面,我们都会有大智慧,所有烦恼都能照破。第三个观想呢,就是说,大家看看,灯光与灯光不会互相排斥,不会互相照破,不会互相挫折到,怎么呢,灯光与灯光互映,灯光与灯光就不会较量上下,你的灯光跟他的灯光,完全完全融洽。所以呢,我们离开夏令营,到外面去,带着我们佛的智慧在心里,一定会跟其他的佛友、其他宗教的信徒、其他的人,都会合得来,不会吵架,智慧与智慧就等于灯光完全完全融洽,交相辉映!
