2020/11/27 (三)反省,可以終身寡過之2——修道人要學習「聰者聽人」,而不是一味地固執;再學習「明者反觀」,聰明的人是不固執、多聽別人的勸導,靜的時候能存養省察,動的時候不亂我心,時時刻刻反觀自醒,反省一下自己的思想,有沒有合乎天理良心?反省自己的行為有沒有違悖天經地義?也就是說,一個做好的人、成功的人,並不是因為他的聰明,而是因為他肯「多用心、多費心」,才成功的。只要你肯下功夫,與聖賢又有什麼兩樣呢?


(三)反省 可以終身寡過之 (2)

Self reflect or introspect can lead us to a life with no regrets and wrongdoing.

Untitled Document

濟公活佛慈語:修道人要學習「聰者聽人」,而不是一味地固執;再學習「明者反觀」,
Tao practitioners must learn: " Intelligent and wise people listen to others and not be blindly obstinate or stubborn。 With further practice, , comes " the ability to understand and to see things from the other side of the coin"

聰明的人是不固執、多聽別人的勸 導,靜的時候能存養省察,動的時候不亂我心,
Intelligent and wise people are not stubborn or selfish。 They listen to other people's advice and calmly examine their own thoughts and conduct without chaos or confusion。

時時刻刻反觀自省,反省一下自己的思想,有沒有合乎天理良心?反省自己的行為有沒有違悖天經地義?
Always critically examine our own thoughts and actions。 Ask ourselves if they conform with the Heavenly principles and done with conscience and kindness? Also reflect to see if our conducts violate or contradict the Principles of Heaven and Earth。

也就是說,一個做好的人、成功的 人,並不是因為他的聰明,而是因為他肯「多用心、多費心」,才成功 的。
It also means that when a person is good and successful, it is not only because he is smart but also because he is willing to " be more diligent and put in the extra effort"

只要你肯下功夫,與聖賢又有什麼兩樣呢?
For as long as we are willing to put in the effort, we are really not different from the Sages and other men of virtue。

故事
Story

有一天,司馬光路過廚房,聞到香味, 走到廚房一看,
One day, Si Ma Guang happened to walk past the kitchen。 He could smell a good aroma coming from it。 He went into the kitchen and saw

原來僕人們正忙著做司馬光愛吃的八寶飯。可是八寶飯沒好,一個機靈的僕人逗司馬光說:「看到青核桃仁了嗎?
the domestic servant cooking his favorite dish, the eight treasure rice。 But the rice was not ready。 A clever servant said to Si Ma Guang: " Can you see those green walnut kernels?"

如果你能把核桃仁上的這層青皮剝掉,馬上就可以吃八寶飯了!」
If you can peel off the green skin on the kernels, you can eat the eight treasure rice straight away。

司馬光一聽說這好辦,你們等著,我很快就可以剝掉!說完去院子認真剝皮。
Si Ma Guangyi thought it was going to be an easy task and eager to prove his ability。 He immediately went inside and began peeling and did it with diligence。

令他沒想到的是,這層青皮, 想剝下來卻並不容易。
Unknowing to him, the green skin was actually not easy to peel off。

一開始,他用指甲摳,可摳了半天沒剝下幾個,反而捏碎了不少。
In the beginning, he used his fingernails to peel and pick。 It took him a long time just to have a few done and he also damaged quite a few。

一個丫環過來,告訴他:公子,把這些核桃仁放入水中浸泡一下, 就好剝了。
One servant girl came along and said to him: " Master, soak the kernels in water for a while and that will make it easy to peel"

司馬光試了一下,果然很快就將一大盆的核桃仁剝完了。司馬光就拿給姐姐看,
Si Ma Guang did as he was told。 He soon was able to peel off a large bucket of walnut kernels in no time。 He then showed them to his sister。

姐姐問:這都是你自己剝掉的嗎?
His sister asked if he did it all by himself and without any assistance from anyone。

司馬光本想說是一個丫環教他的, 卻怕丟了面子,就說:「當然。」
He was initially tempted to say that a servant girl taught him the way to do it。 At the same time, he was afraid to lose his self-esteem and went on to say that he did it all by himself and in his own way。

司馬光剛說完,他的父親走過來,嚴肅地說:光兒,我剛才看見是丫環教你的,為什麼不肯承認?
As soon as Si Ma Guang finished saying, his father walked in and said to him in a rather serious tone: " Son, I actually saw it was the servant girl who showed you the easy way and why wouldn't you admit it?"

司馬光臉上頓時紅了。這時母親也來了:光兒,你父親說的對,別人教你,就是別人教的,為什麼要撒謊呢?
Si Ma Guang felt ashamed。 At this time, his mother also came and said: " Son, what your father said is correct。 You were helped by someone and that will remain the case。 Why is there a need to lie about it?"

你該自己好好反省一下才是。
You must carefully and critically reflect on your conducts。

省思
Reflection

故事中可以看出,自省的重要性。人的自我反省有助於學習能力
From this story, we can see the importance of self-reflection and introspection on our thoughts and conducts。 It will also assist and give us more capacity in our learning

和心態調整能力的提高。若是能通過自我反省修正自己的錯誤,就能發揮自我最大潛能。
and heighten our mentality and improve our overall well being。 If we are able to self reflect when correcting our past mistakes, we will then be able to unleash our highest potential and ability。

後來司馬光成了歷史上著名的政治家和歷史學家。
Later Si Ma Guang became a historically world-famous politician as well as a historian。

結論
Conclusion

一、如果沒有真正的反省思過,就很容易受到外境刺激而妄動。
1。 If we do not genuinely self reflect on our past mistakes, we will be easily influenced by external stimuli and act recklessly。

二、每天都應反省昨天的過失, 並觀照今天的行為。
2。 We must reflect daily on yesterday's mistakes and at the same time observe today's behavior。
