孟子說:「能夠充分徹底反思的人,就能了解和懂得人性本有的仁義禮智;能夠看到人心的善良與人性的美好,就能明悟原來己身的浩然正氣與天同在!」生活中能夠時時刻刻反求諸己,找回自己不學而能的良能,不慮而知的良知,保持人的本心,擴充人的善性,樂於培育自身的品德,這才是讓自己的身心有所依歸安頓的不二法門。

Mencius said, “For a man to give full realization to his heart is for him to understand his inner self, and a man who knows his inner self will know Heaven.“  In every minute and hour, one should give full realization to his heart, nourish his inner self, and cultivate himself by happily following Dao; this is the very way to enjoy peace and stability both physically and spiritually.
