放大或縮小 林鈺堂簡繁轉換 - 繁體
論人是非 計較長短
俗說是「把人放大來看」
從法界整體來論
却是「將心眼縮小了」
佛法教示
要如實觀照
一切世事都是一時一地某些人的說法
若能真正心如法界如實觀照
而不為一時一地某些偏見所局限
則心眼明徹
照見其實無有世事
而是只有種種心結
修行佛法者
切莫將心眼縮小了
盯在無可把捉、早已流逝的塵埃上
只要放得下
哪來世事的踪影
放下了 心自然會趨近
法界之無限寬廣

Magnifying or Contracting
Yutang Lin
Talking about others' right or wrong
Comparing their adequacy and shortcomings
Usually it is said in Chinese as
"Magnifying others to look at"
Regarded from the angle of Dharmadhatu as a whole
It would be
"Contracting Mind's Eye in focusing"
Dharma teaches that we should
View things as they are
All worldly affairs are views
Of some people at some time in some locality
If, while viewing things as they are
Mind could be as expansive and everlasting as the Dharmadhatu
Without being confined by biased views of some particular time and place
Then Mind's Eye will be clear and penetrating
And see that indeed there are no worldly affairs
But only all sorts of psychological knots
A Dharma practitioner should definitely not
To contract Mind's Eye by focusing and fixing it
On dusts ungraspable and faded long ago
As long as one could let it all go
Where are the traces and shadows of worldly affairs
Once renounced
Mind will naturally approximate to
The limitless openness of the Dharmadhatu
