生趣 林鈺堂 世間多苦窮敷衍,滿街愁顏咸鎖眉; 跋 閱歷人生既久,漸漸查覺生趣乃各人生活之根本動力。其消長、有無對各人一生之心態、作為及短長皆息息相關。奈何一般罕見注意及此。或知培育,則往往將之繫於外在之追求,因而難免終值失落之境遇。唯有佛法,教人回復純真、本淨,而於不期而然之中,使生趣自然地盎然無盡。離苦之法樂,其樂如斯!
The Joy of Living Yutang Lin Full of suffering in the world that could hardly be handled; Comment: Having experienced life for decades I gradually became aware that the joy of living is the fundamental force of each person's life. Its waning or waxing, presence or absence intimately intertwines with each person's mentality and activities throughout life and even affects the length of one's life span. Nevertheless, usually people seem oblivious of this essential factor of life. Some are aware of it, but it is then often tied to pursuits of outward interests. Consequently, it is inevitable that sooner or later they would encounter situations of loss or difficulty. It is only the Buddhist teachings that teach people to return to original purity and sincerity, and thereby, even though without expressed intention, achieve natural spontaneity and continuous joy of living. The joy of Dharma that is free from suffering could be so joyful!
