每週金句-No.041 前念迷即愚,後念覺即智,當下棄迷轉覺,非聖即道矣!

前念迷即愚,後念覺即智,當下棄迷轉覺,非聖即道矣!

太陽的光芒不會改變,陰晴不過是過眼雲煙的舒卷變化,就如世間的我們無論是愚迷無知或者是涵養智慧,兩者所具足的佛性並無差別;只因痴心妄想執著而迷惑,才有愚和智的分別。若能棄迷轉覺,念念以善為本,無論身在什麼處境,都能定下心來,以致中和之道的方式呈現,正所謂「一念愚即般若絕,一念智即般若生。」

Being confused in thought a moment ago, you were considered a fool; being enlightened a moment later, you are considered a wise man. Getting rid of the confusion and turning to enlightenment at this very instance, you will be either a saint or a person having attained Dao.
