南禪朋友好!
一位跟隨南禪精舍修學近20年的女居士,昨天跟我說:
她對一件讓她恐慌很久的事,最近做到同一件事情再面對時已經輕鬆了!
是的,佛法首談智慧,面對日常生活有耐力的運用佛法增加自己的能力,
當一件困擾己身的事情,靠自己的智慧與力量解決時,如同弘一大師說的;
悲欣交集。

Greetings, friends
of NanZen!
Yesterday, a
laywoman of NanZen for nearly 20 years told me that when facing the same fear
that used to bother her for long, she found herself dealing with it calmly this
time.
That’s right.
Buddhism focuses the most on wisdom.
Cultivate
ourselves patiently in accordance with the Dharma, and apply wisdom of Buddhism
to our daily lives.
After overcoming
something besetting us for long with our own wisdom and strength, we feel, just
as Master Hongyi said, ‘bittersweet--joy endowed by the BuddhaDharma mingled
with sorrow of suffering along the way !’
