然, 偶或生得為人之時, 名聞名利之風烈, 而佛道修行之燈易滅.

今日指導 十一月二日

最終, 只有你本身曉得自己的信心處於什麼狀態.
無論會發生什麼事, 我希望你能穩健且忠誠地保持着那種能建立幸福的信心.

Ultimately you alone know the condition of your faith.
I hope that, no matter what may happen, you will steadily and faithfully maintain the kind of faith that can build happiness.

今日指導 十一月一日

成佛的大道是在關鍵時刻揭露的.
持着你能排除萬難的確信站起來.
在這個時候, 你千萬不可猶豫, 退轉或作出任何一件令你將來後悔的事.

It is at critical moments that the great path to enlightenment unfolds.
Stand up with the conviction that you can break through all obstacles.
At such times you must not vacillate, retreat, or do anything else that will later give you cause for regret.

今日指導 十月卅十一日

認真努力達成大目標的人不會忽略即使是最小的細節.
忽略細節的人卻不能成大器.

A person who makes serious efforts to achieve a great goal does not overlook even the slightest details.
One who neglects small things will never amount to much.

星期三, 10月 29, 2008

今日指導 十月三十日

痛苦有無數種, 我們應該了解的是, 當我們受到嚴酷的痛苦時, 也正是挑戰與轉換宿業, 以及打開大福運之門的時候.
真正的幸福是確立一個能夠欣然地面對即使是最大的苦難也將之克服的境涯.

There are innumerable types of suffering.
What we should realise is that the times when we suffer severely are also when we challenge and change our karma, and unlock the door to great good fortune.
True happiness means to establish a condition in which we can gladly face even the greatest suffering and overcome it.

今日指導 十月二十九日

應該嚴厲地告誡那些修行佛法的人不要謗法.
同時應該時時警惕他們勿犯上増上慢.
修行佛法的人放任其傲慢心而輕慢地耗盡內在的生命力是最危險的.

Those who practise Buddhism should be strictly warned against committing slander, and they should guard closely against arrogance.
It is most dangerous for one who practises Buddhism to vainly exhaust his inner life-force by giving free rein to his arrogant mind.

今日指導 十月二十八日

你必須小心言詞, 因為慈悲的話能感動一個人, 而輕率的話則會使他的心靈深受創傷.

Take great care with your words.
For compassionate talk can move a person, while an inconsiderate word can leave his heart deeply wounded.

星期一, 10月 27, 2008

今日指導 十月二十七日

青年是未來的希望, 少男少女是明日的寶藏.
信賴青年對他們抱有期望, 並對少男少女由衷的愛護與珍惜是我們首要的責任.
否則, 世人將無法看到一個布滿芬芳花朵的沃土的未來.

Youth are the hope of the future.
Boys and girls are the treasure of tomorrow.
It is our foremost responsibility to place trust in and cherish boys and girls from the bottom of our hearts.
Otherwise, the peoples of the world will never see a future of rich fields alive with fragrant flowers.

星期六, 10月 25, 2008

今日指導 十月二十六日

生命是一連串的勝利與失敗, 因此, 要使你的生命冠以榮耀, 首先就必須建立穩固的基礎, 以便能勇敢地面對任何困難.

Life is a continuous series of victories and defeat.
Therefore, to crown your life with glory, you must first construct a firm foundation, and then you will be able to brave any difficult.

今日指導 十月二十五日

在生命中擁有久遠元初的太陽是最幸福的人.
因此, 縱然一整年的日子都是陰霾或多風暴的, 也絕不要忘記, 你還是能夠讓心中的太陽燦爛地照耀着.

He is most happy who embraces the sun of kuon ganjo within his life.
Therefore, throughout the year, though the days may be overcast or stormy, never forget that you can let the sun within your heart shine brilliantly.

今日指導 十月二十四日

如果春是蓬勃的象徵, 那秋就是理性的季節.
如果夏是盡情歡慶的時候, 那冬定是磨練的季節.
因此, 我選擇歷經人生四季的道路, 以便過着無價的人生.

If spring is symbolic of vibrant activity, then autumn is the season of the mind; and if summer is the time of impassioned celebration, then winter must be the season of training.
Thus I have chosen to walk a path through the four seasons of life so as to live with infinite value.

星期三, 10月 22, 2008

今日指導 十月二十三日

一名熟練的機師必須能引導飛機渡過大氣的湍流.
在信心方面, 如果你害怕困難的話, 那就不能使自己成長.

A skilled pilot must be able to guide the plane through in the atmosphere.
In faith, if you are afraid of difficulties, then you yourself cannot grow.

今日指導 十月二十二日

一名真正的幹事是當會友們感到極度痛苦時, 立即幫助他們並嘗試引導他們走向幸福之道的人.

A genuine leader is one who springs to the aid of those who are suffering from the greatest pain and agony in an attempt to lead them to happiness.

星期一, 10月 20, 2008

今日指導 十月二十一日

勝利固然重要, 但更重要的是建立一個在任何情況下都不會被擊敗的自我.
佛又稱為能忍, 即一個能夠忍耐的人.
因此, 年輕人必須牢記, 辛勤地在自己生命深處建立忍耐力的基礎是有必要的.

Although victory is important, it is more important for one to construct a self which will not be defeated under any circumstances.
The Buddha is called Nonin, one who can endure.
Thus young people must bear in mind the need to painstakingly build a foundation of endurance in the depths of their lives.

今日指導 十月二十日

成佛或真正幸福之道只包括向三大祕法的大御本尊唱題以及自行化他的修行.

The path to attaining Buddhahood or true happiness consists alone in chanting daimoku to the Dai-Gohonzon of the Three Great Secret Laws and carrying through with the practice of faith for oneself and others.

星期日, 10月 19, 2008

今日指導 十月十九日

如果你年紀尚輕就成爲幹事, 那麽聼取長輩們的意見是很重要的.
相反的, 如果你已有相當的年紀才當幹事, 那麽你就得聆聽小輩們的意見.

If you become a leader while you are still young, it is important to listen to the opinions of your seniors.
Conversely, if you become a leader when you are already along in years, you must listen to the opinions of those who are younger than you.

今日指導 十月十八日

你的一生或許會有許多問題與痛苦, 不過, 我希望你能向它們挑戰.
要記得, "困難是最佳的教育".
這種挑戰能使你磨練自己並培養美德, 也將幫助你的孩子卓越地成長.

There may be many problems and suffering in your lives, but I hope that you will challenge them, remembering that "difficulties are the greatest education."
This kind of challenge enables you to polish yourself and develop your virtues, which will in turn help your children grow splendidly.

今日指導 十月十七日

我們絕不可低估了人們在廣宣流布中的重要性.
關鍵性的一點是要栽培更多年輕會友, 使他們比我們更能幹.

We must never underestimate the important of people in our activities for kosen-rufu.
The crucial point is to foster younger members so that they will become even more capable than ourselves.

星期六, 10月 18, 2008

今日指導 - 第三集 ~ 十月十八日

為信念而活的人是堅強的。即使最初看似敗了, 但最後必將放出勝利者的光輝。為信念而活的人, 其人格生輝, 分辨清善惡, 能順著軌道一直前進。

Those who live true to their convictions are strong. Even if at one time it may appear that they have lost, in the end they will shine with human victory. The character and integrity of those who live based on their convictions shine. They can clearly distinguish what is good and what is evil, and advance unerringly on their chosen path in life.

星期五, 10月 17, 2008

今日指導 - 第二集 ~ 十月十七日

既不是以丈夫為主,也不是以妻子為中心;更不是說誰比較了不起,誰要成為不幸的犧牲者。一首歌是由“歌詞”與“音樂(歌曲)”結合而成。同樣的,夫妻乃是以平等的個體,同時去奏出一體的人生旋律。是否視為“人生的伴侶”,兩個人一同去唱出多麼優美的一首歌?我認為這點很重要。

The husband is not the centre of the relationship, nor is the wife. It's not a question of who is the leader or who must make himself or herself a sacrifice for the other's success and happiness. Just as a song is a marriage of music and lyrics, husband and wife are equal individuals who, at the same time, perform a single melody of life together. What is important, I think, is how beautiful a song those two life partners can create together.

星期三, 10月 15, 2008

今日指導 十月十六日

你不能憑一個人的地位或外貌斷定他的品格.
實際上, 在幕後默默耕耘的人當中往往有許多才華洋溢的人.

You cannot judge a person's character simply on the basis of his position or appearance.
Rather, there are often many talented people among those who labour silently in the background.

今日指導 十月十五日

雖然理想很重要, 但缺乏現實的平衡是不能在實際生活的奮鬥中帶來勝利的.
相反地, 喪失了理想的現實生活將會很快地陷入純粹的丑陋中.

Although idealism is very important, idealism without a balancing touch of realism cannot bring victory in the struggles of real life.
On the other hand, a reality bereft of ideals will quickly sink into mere ugliness.

星期二, 10月 14, 2008

今日指導 十月十四日

如果你只因生活上的一點挫折而一味地煩惱, 嘆息, 這最終將會導致失敗的一生.
失敗其實是養精蓄銳的時候, 你必須將它作為跳板, 那麼勝利會接踵而至.

If you do nothing but fret and sigh because of a set-back on one front of life, this can end up bringing your whole life down in defeat.
A defeat is the time to build up your energies; you must make defeat the stepping-off point for the victories that will follow.

今日指導 十月十三日

即使是受持御本尊, 如果缺乏信心的話, 祈願將不會實現, 功德亦不會到來.

Even though one may embrace the Gohonzon, if he lacks faith, his prayers will not be answered and no benefit will be forthcoming.

星期日, 10月 12, 2008

今日指導 十月十二日

在信心修行上所付出的一切努力將使你累積無盡的福運.
由於生命中積聚着福運, 因此就算是最大的障礙, 你也肯定地能將之克服.

With all your efforts in the practice of faith you will accumulate an infinite amount of good fortune.
Due to the fortune stored in your life, you will definitely be able to overcome even the greatest obstacles.

今日指導 十月十一日

若你保持對御本尊的信心到臨終一刻, 將可避免陷入悲哀的黑暗中, 即使處在死亡階段, 亦能享有最高的境涯.

If you maintain your faith in the Gohonzon until the last moment of your life, you will be able to escape the darkness of sorrow and enjoy the highest possible condition even in the phase of death.

星期三, 10月 08, 2008

今日指導 十月十日

在妙法的世界裡, 無人不具有使命.
給有才幹的人適當的責任, 以讓他們竭盡所能.
切記, 只要我們讓他人有機會展示其才能, 便能看到他們的優點.

In the world of Mystic Law no one us without a mission.
Give capable persons the appropriate responsibility, so as to enable them to give their best.
Never forget that we can see good in others when we give them a chance to show their ability.

今日指導 十月九日

聯絡與報告是組織的神經, 因為迅速與準確的聯絡, 讓我們保護會友, 從而帶來勝利.

Contacting and reporting are the nerves of the organisation, because rapid and accurate communication, with which we can protect our members, will bring about our victory.

星期二, 10月 07, 2008

今日指導 十月八日

最重要的是, 你是否能在臨終時, 享有安寧與不受束縛的生命境涯, 使你確信自己並沒留下未完成的工作, 也絲毫不感到後悔.
同時, 確信你已在人生中獲勝而且獲的最大的滿足感--這是一生成佛的實証.

What matters most is whether or not, at the end of your life, you can enjoy a peaceful and unbounded condition which enables you to say with confidence that you have left nothing undone and have not a single regret, that you have won in life and are filled with the deepest possible satisfaction--the proof of attaining Buddhahood in this lifetime.

今日指導 十月七日

御本尊賦予無盡與絕對的佛力和法力, 但, 我們依據本身的信力和行力以取得這兩者.
因此, 清純與強盛的信心是必要的.

The Gohonzon is endowed with the limitless and absolute powers of the Buddha and the Law, but we receive them according to our powers of faith and practice.
Thus, pure, strong faith is essential.

星期一, 10月 06, 2008

今日指導 十月六日

在任何一種事業中, 先驅者都會遭到批評.
只要忍受得了這種批評, 他們便能證明自己努力的價值所在.
因此, 你不應成為那種會被細小的障礙或困難所擊敗的人.
當你遇到嚴重的問題時, 千萬不要愚蠢得退轉信心, 抱怨, 或開始批評我們的運動.

In any endeavour, pioneers are subject to criticism.
They will prove the value of their effort as they withstand such criticism.
Therefore, you should not become the kind of people who can be defeated by small obstacles or difficulties.
You should never be so foolish as to backslide in your faith, complain or begin to criticize our movement when you meet a severe problem.

星期六, 10月 04, 2008

給風師妹

風師妹,

祝您與西國公子百年好合, 永結同心, 年生貴子, 三年抱兩..........................廣宣流布!!!!!

今日指導 十月五日

我相信, 使人真正地成為人的是, 他不單為己, 也為鄰居, 社會, 以及全人類盡責的能力.

What makes man truly human is, I believe, his ability to act not only for his own sake but for the sake of his neighbours, society and the entire human race.

今日指導 十月四日

由於我們是凡夫, 我們會遭受種種痛苦與煩惱.
然而, 無論境遇如何, 你却是依你的誓言誕生在這世上.
因此, 你要自覺本身的使命, 無論如何, 都務必將它完成不可.

Because we are common mortals, we may suffer pains and troubles.
However, no matter what your situation may be, you were born into this world in accordance with your vows.
So, please be aware of your mission and accomplish it no matter what.

今日指導 十月三日

我們都有欲知道將來是甚樣的傾向, 即使是一丁點也好.
但是身為凡夫, 我們只能知道眼前的事, 然而, 佛却能完全地看透前世, 今世與來世.
信心堅強的人所立下的祈願絕對不會不應驗的.

We have a tendency to want to know even a little of what the future holds.
But, being common mortals, we only know what is immediately before us.
However, the vision of the Buddha perfectly penetrates the three existences.
There is no way that the prayer of a person of strong faith will not be answered.

恭喜陳風

10月4日是陳風的大喜日子!!!

恭喜你呀..戰友, 我任務完成, 聽晚一定同各位飲多杯!!!

星期四, 10月 02, 2008

今日指導 十月二日

謙虛的人通常是冷靜與沈着的而傲慢的人則往往顯得不耐煩.
從容的人能正確地判斷事物, 而愴促急切間的判斷則會曲解事物.

A humble person is usually composed, while an arrogant person is often impatient.
A composed person can assess things correctly, while a person in a hurry always see things in a distorted way.

今日指導 十月一日

那些稱讚並宣弘正法的人是智者, 他們能給予他人永恆的幸福, 本身亦以擁有永恆的福運與善因.

Those who praise and propagate the Great Law are people of wisdom who can give eternal happiness to others and who already possess eternal good fortune and good causes in themselves.

星期二, 9月 30, 2008

今日指導 九月三十日

總之, 個人的人間革命是信心最不可少的.
重要的是會友的飽滿人性, 對生活的態度, 以及家庭狀况, 應該是受人尊崇得足以使他人信服信仰的偉大, 從而使本門佛法自然地流布開去.

In the final analysis, individual human revolution is most vital in faith.
The important point is that the members' rich humanity, their attitude towards living, and the condition of their families should be respect worthy enough to convince others of the greatness of their faith and thereby cause true Buddhism to spread naturally.

星期一, 9月 29, 2008

今日指導 九月二十九日

在你朝夕向着廣宣流布進發的同時, 請相信, 你那配套"信心即生活", "信心即社會" 的原理生活的一念或決心, 將為生命帶來鑽石般永遠璀璨亮麗的幸福.

Please be confident that your ichinen, or determination, to live in accord with the principles of "faith equals daily life" and "faith equals society," as you aim towards kosen-rufu both night and day, will give rise to a happiness in life which will shine as brilliantly as a diamond, throughout eternity.

今日指導 九月二十八日

信心就如一面鏡子般使你能夠看到真實的自己.
這是一面磨練性格的鏡子.
當你歸命於御本尊並繼續磨練信心時, 自然地你就會了解自己.

Faith is like a mirror in which you can see your true self.
It is a mirror for polishing your character.
As you devote yourself to the Gohonzon and continue to polish your faith, you will come to know yourself naturally.

今日指導 九月二十七日

你應該深深地自覺到我們的廣布之役, 亦即日蓮大聖人的御遺願是一連串無休止的障礙與嚴峻的奮鬥.
倘若抱着得過且過的態度, 一味追求功德, 或信心修行處於被動, 平靜, 又或逃避任何痛處和挑戰的話, 你將無法完成任何大事.

You should be deeply aware that our battle for kosen-rufu, the will of Nichiren Daishonin, is an endless succession of obstacles, and severe struggles.
If you pursue nothing but benefit with an easy-going attitude, or if you practise faith in a passive, uneventful way, avoiding any kind of pain or challenge, you will never accomplish anything great.

星期五, 9月 26, 2008

今日指導 九月二十六日

無論個人的境況如何, 重要的是, 我們能夠使生命境涯得到多大的發展.
無論目前身處的境況如何, 信心的回報在於我們保持一個洋溢着喜悅的生命境涯的能力.

Whatever our individual circumstances, the important thing is how much we can develop and deepen our life-condition.
No matter what situation we may be in now, the great reward of faith lies in our ability to maintain a state of life which is overflowing with joy.

今日指導 九月二十五日

小樹無法獨自迎向嚴酷的風雪.
根淺的樹木也無法面對猛烈的暴風雨.
不過, 冥益的大樹絕不會倒下.
因此, 信心的根一定要壯且深.

A small tree cannot stand up alone against a severe blizzard.
Nor can a tree with weak or shallow roots face a violent storm.
However, the great tree of inconspicuous benefit will never collapse or be toppled.
Therefore, the roots of our faith must be strong and deep.

星期三, 9月 24, 2008

今日指導 九月二十四日

如果你被自身的弱點擊敗, 就不能成為偉大的領導者, 在任何困難的境况下維持強盛的信心並積極地過着其青年時期, 最終將能成為出色的領導者.

You cannot be a great leader if you are defeated by your own weakness.
One who maintains strong faith and lives his youth vigorously under any difficult circumstances will eventually grow into an excellent leader.

今日指導 九月二十三日

你具有勇氣與否將會大大地影響你的幸福.
如果你有勇氣, 就可成為社會中的人才.
你也能克服本身的弱點, 將生命從消極至幸福與善的道路.

Whether or not you have courage will greatly influence your happiness.
If you have courage, you can become a capable person within society.
You can also overcome your own weakness, and direct your life form a course of negativity and suffering towards one of happiness and virtue.

今日指導 九月二十二日

生命時時刻刻在變化着.
這些變化會使你向上或墮落就在於你是否在日日變化的經歷中擁有改善人生的堅定意志或一念.

One's life changes form moment to moment.
Whether these changes will lead you to improvement or to corruption depends on whether you possess a constant determination or ichinen to improve your life, along with the changes you experience form day to day.

星期五, 9月 19, 2008

今日指導 九月二十一日

如果缺乏勇氣, 那麼其苦難的種種經歷將轉為埋怨及對他人的不滿.
你將會失去信心以及邁向前的精力.
結果, 你只會感到孤寂與後悔.

If one lacks courage, all of his experiences of hardship will turn into complaints and resentment towards others.
He will them lose confidence in faith as well as the energy to move forward.
As a result, he will feel nothing but bitter loneliness and regret.

今日指導 九月二十日

你應該切記的一點, 就是千萬別對會友懷有怨嫉, 否則, 你的功德將會消滅.

There is one point which you should keep in mind.
You must never bear ill feelings towards your fellow members.
If you do so, you will erase your benefits.

今日指導 九月十九日

拜讀御書的意義是什麼?
其意義在於加強信心並防止信心退轉.
我們拜讀與學習入<<開目抄>>這類御書是為了使我們接觸日蓮大聖人廣大無邊的御境界, 從而建立一個牢固的信心基礎.
因此, 希望你們在穩固的基礎上, 繼續拜讀御書.

What is the significance of reading the gosho?
It lies in deepening one's faith and preventing oneself form backsliding.
The reason why we read and study writings like "The Opening of the Eyes" is that by doing so, we are able to come into contact with Nichiren Daishonin's boundless life-condition and thereby build a solid foundation for our own faith.
Therefore, I would like to ask you to continue reading the gosho on a steady basis.

今日指導 九月十八日

表面上看來, 一個人似乎身受深重的宿業果報.
不過, 當我們以強盛的信心與三世永恆的生命觀看待事物時, 就可明白依據"轉重輕受"的原理, 這其實是以較輕的形式承受宿業果報.
受持妙法, 並喜悅地促進廣宣流布活動的人是絕不會感到不快樂的.

On the surface, one may appear to be suffering form the effects of heavy karma.
However, when we view things form the standpoint of strong faith and the eternal perspective of past, present and future, one will realise that he is presently receiving the effects of his past karma in a much lightened form, in accord with the principle of "lessening one's karmic retribution" (tenju kyoju).
One who embraces the law of Myoho, and joyfully promotes activities for kosen-rufu, will absolutely never be unhappy.

今日指導 九月十七日

基於苦的行動和基於喜的行動有如火與水之分別.
無論如何, 請為了廣宣流布而推進充滿喜悅的活動.

Actions based on suffering and those based on joy are as different as fire and water.
No matter what, please promote joy-filled activities for kosen-rufu.

星期三, 9月 17, 2008

今日指導 九月十六日

即使是通達三世的永恆旅程也包含在生命的這一瞬間.
基於"因果俱時"的原理, 這一瞬間的題目與信心的一念所形成的因將於稍後顯現.
你在這一瞬間的一念是大聖人的佛法最重要的課題.

Even our eternal journey through time is included in this single moment of life.
An individual's daimoku and determination in faith at this moment form causes that will later become manifest, based on the principle of the simultaneity of cause and effect.
For this reason, your ichinen at this very moment is the most important issue in the Daishonin's Buddhism.

星期二, 9月 16, 2008

今日指導 九月十五日

無論在組織裡表現得多麼有口才, 或多麼地出色, 如果忽略了勤行, 就絕不能長久地持續下去.
這是因為學會的世界就是信心純正的世界.

No matter how eloquent one may be, or how excellently one may appear to behave within the organisation, if he neglects the practice of gongyo, if he neglects the practice of gongyo, he will never be able to continue for long.
This is because the world of the Gakkai is none other than the pure world of faith.

今日指導 九月十四日

一個人必須持着堅定的決心生活.
這是實踐信仰的人應有的態度.
以決心生活的人是堅強的.
憑着決心, 一個人生活中的煩惱和痛苦將會減半, 而他也能鼓起勇氣, 克服任何的困難.

One must live with firm resolution.
This should be the attitude of one who practises faith.
One who lives with determination is strong.
Thanks to his determination, his trouble and suffering in life will be reduced by half, and he will be able to summon forth the courage to surmount any difficulty.

今日指導 九月十三日

活着以履行廣布使命的我們, 應成為那種幼輩會說出: "我真的要跟着他的腳步, 實踐強盛的信心修行." 的人.
戶田會長稱這種人為堅強的幹事.
當然, 力量不是指炫燿自己的偉大, 而是堅強的自信與強盛的信心.

We, who live to fulfill our mission for kosen-rufu, should become the kind of people of whom our juniors will say, "I really want to follow in his footsteps and carry out a strong practice of faith."
President Toda called such people leaders.
Of course, strength does not mean to show off one's greatness.
Rather, it means strong confidence and strong faith.

今日指導 九月十二日

今生磨練信心時, 我們會遭受到一些障礙, 以及源自宿業不同程度的苦痛.
然而, 若以過去, 現在與未來的永恆觀點視之, 這些障礙, 苦痛實在是微不足道的.
當我們奮起, 向弘教與挽救人們的問題挑戰時, 我們將不會被細小的困難所困撓或動搖.

As we carry out our faith in this lifetime, we will experience some obstacles as well as various degrees of suffering arising from our karma.
However, when viewed form our eternal perspective of past, present and future, these things are truly insignificant.
When we stand up and challenge the great problem of spreading the Law and saving the people, we will not be captured or swayed by minor difficulties.

今日指導 九月十一日

我們必須敏鋭地知道, 當一個人在精神頽喪, 生病, 或有問題時, 鼓勵對他是極端重要的.
即使是衷心的一個字, 片言隻語, 也可能改善他的一生.

We must be keenly aware that when a person is suffering form a weak spirit, from sickness, or form other problems, encouragement is extremely important.
Even a single word of heartfelt encouragement may change a person's entire life for the better.

今日指導 九月十日

御本尊是清純無比的佛界當體.
因此一個人信心之一念越清純, 御本尊就越快, 越深地對祈求作出反應.
記住, 這正是信心的極理與大聖人佛法的正確修行.

The Gohonzon is the pure, incomparable entity of Buddhahood.
Therefore, the purer one's ichinen of faith, the more quickly and profoundly the Gohonzon will respond to one's prayers.
Remember that herein lies the ultimate principle of faith and the correct practice of the Daishonin's Buddhism.

星期二, 9月 09, 2008

今日指導 九月九日

即使是修行信心, 你依然會患病或遭遇其他種種問題.
然而通過"煩惱即菩提"的原理, 一切問題將會變成幸福的基礎, 將你引向成佛.
請你們明白, 促成這一轉變的, 就是信心.

Even though you practise faith, you may still suffer form illness or various other problems.
However, through the principle of "earthly desires are enlightenment," all problems become the foundation for your happiness, leading you towards enlightenment.
Please understand that faith is what allows this transformation to take place.

星期一, 9月 08, 2008

今日指導 九月八日

我希望你勤勵於勤行與題目, 以便自己過着最大滿足的人生.
御本尊包含了最高的法則.
在人生的道路上沒有一條比本着御本尊唱誦"南無妙法蓮華經"來得更有意義的道路了.

I would like you to be diligent in the practice of gongyo and daimoku so that you will lead a life of ultimate satisfaction.
The Gohonzon embodies the highest of all laws.
No path in life is more significant than one based on chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo to the Gohonzon.

今日指導 九月七日

青年時期是憂慮與煩惱的時期.
年輕時, 由於不可能了解一切事物, 也不可能完全毫無拘束地取得進展, 因此, 憂慮, 煩惱是自然的.
記住, 這充滿問題與痛苦的困惑時期, 其實是使你投向一個完滿與充實的未來的一塊沃土.

Youth is a time of worries and troubles.
This is only natural, since one cannot possibly understand everything and make completely unrestricted progress while still young.
Remember that this confused period of problems and suffering serves, rather, as fertile ground form which to launch oneself towards a complete and fulfilling future.

今日指導 九月六日

你的信心應永遠都是純潔的.
否則, 你便無法擊敗自己生命裡的"魔", 這個"魔"令你項追求個人名利的這種慾望妥協.
因此, 除非你保持純潔的信心, 不然, 你將會不能邁向幸福的境界.

Your faith should always be pure, otherwise, you will be unable to defeat the "devil" that exists within your own life.
This devil leads you to compromise with such tendencies as the desire to seek self-centred fame and gain.
Therefore, you will be unable to advance towards a condition of happiness unless you maintain pure faith.

星期五, 9月 05, 2008

今日指導 九月五日

請在御本尊無限功德的圍繞下, 渡過你的一生, 並且打開你內在無邊際的宮殿.
在你循着信心之道--一條人類所能追隨的最崇高之道上行走時, 應自豪和英勇地獻身於廣宣流布,
同時渡過一個最燦爛的人生.

Please spend your entire lives embraced by the infinite benefit of the Gohonzon, and open within yourself a boundless inner palace.
Proudly and valiantly devote yourself to kosen-rufu as you walk the path of faith, the highest path a human being can follow, and lead the most splendid kind of existence.

你應該持續明朗, 愉快的信心, 以及喜悅的折伏行.
我最大的希望就是你能日復一日地過着明朗, 愉快的生活, 永遠燃燒着對前途的希望火花.

I hope you will practise faith so that you may live a bright, cheerful existence.
To this end, you should carry through with bright and cheerful faith, and a joyful practice of shakubuku.
My deepest hope is that you will live a bright and cheerful life, day by day, always burning with hope for the future.

今日指導 九月三日

無論一個人過的是怎樣的生活, 當他與妙法結緣時, 即使僅那麼一次, 佛界的"金剛寶器"便開始在他生命中顯現出來.
永久的世界和平與全人類的幸福的先決條件在於各人在生命裡建造和平與幸福的堡壘.

When a person forms a relationship with the Law of Myoho even once, no matter what kind of life he leads, he begins to develop within himself a "diamond vessel" of Buddhahood.
The prerequisite for both lasting world peace and happiness for all mankind lies in creating a fortress for peace and happiness in the life of each individual.

今日指導 九月二日

掌握佛道修行的精髓, 這個人生的目的在於我們對生命的意義能有多充分的了解以及在目前的環境中對個人的使命能有多深厚的感覺.
這是信心的要旨.

Mastering the essence of Buddhist practice, which is the purpose of life, lies how fully we can grasp the significance of our lives, and how deeply we can sense our own individual mission in the environment where we find ourselves now.
This is the key point of our faith.

星期一, 9月 01, 2008

今日指導 九月一日

佛界的生命是永恆的.
這是個完全自由, 毫無拘束的生命境涯, 我們可在其內永遠享有常樂我淨.
於內的佛界中的"我"在六道循環的現實生活中, 展開各種活動完成我們達到廣宣流布和挽救眾生脫離苦海的使命.

The life of Buddhahood spans eternity.
It is a completely free and unrestricted state of life in which we can always enjoy the enlightened properties of eternity, happiness, true self and purity (jo raku ga jo).
With this "self" of Buddhahood hidden within us, we carry out our various activities in the reality of the lower Six Worlds to fulfill our mission to accomplish kosen-rufu and to save all people from suffering.

今日指導 八月三十一日

目前你可能在日常生活中, 有着種種的憂慮, 不過, 妙法能使你以沈着的態度解決一切問題, 使之成為成長的跳板.
它也促使你在日復日, 月復月, 年復年中渡過充實與最有價值的人生.

You may have various worries right now in your daily life.
However, it is the Mystic Law which enables you to solve any and all problems with composure, making them a spring-board for your further growth.
It also enables you to live out your life with total fulfillment and in the most valuable way, day after day, month after month, and year after year.

今日指導 八月三十日

生命飛逝.
如果你將時間浪費在猶豫, 埋怨或批評他人中, 或屈服於自身的惰性, 你的青春將會不知不覺間自你身邊溜走.
每一天都是很重要的.
我希望你能渡過充實的人生.

Life passes quickly.
If you waste your time in hesitation, complaining or criticing others, or if you yield to you own lazy nature, before you know it, your youth will have passed you by.
Each and every day is very important.
It is my hope that you will spend a fulfilled life.

今日指導 八月二十九日

那些保持堅定不移的決意, 絕不放棄信心的人, 必定會受到十方諸佛的守護.

It is certain that those who maintain an immovable determination never to discard faith will receive the protection of all Buddhas.

星期四, 8月 28, 2008

今日指導 八月二十八日

職責, 社會地位與財富全都具有各自相對的重要性.
不過, 歸根究底, 真正的幸福却是決定於個人的生命境涯.

Position, social status and wealth all have their own relative importance, but, in the final analysis, real happiness is determined by one's state of life.

星期三, 8月 27, 2008

今日指導 八月二十七日

唯有憑借南無妙法蓮華經這至高無上的法則, 才能轉變原本注定要承受的痛苦, 並且一生過着人類所渴求的幸福人生.
為此, 信心是很重要的.

Only by means of the supreme law of Nam-myoho-renge-kyo can one change the suffering to which is he is destined.
He can also enjoy happiness throughout his life, which is the desire of all human beings.
For this purpose, faith is essential.

星期二, 8月 26, 2008

今日指導 八月二十六日

在生活, 工作, 或任何其他方面遇到困難, 並不可恥.
亦無失去自信的必要.
重要的是自己的信心, 以及如何能轉換自己的宿命.
始終保持着與御本尊直接聯繫的信心.

There is no shame in having troubles in life, work, or any other area.
Nor is there any need to lose self-confidence on that account .
What matters is your faith, and how you can change your destiny.
Always maintain a faith that is directly connected to the Gohonzon.

你可能正面臨由於種種問題與障礙而起的境况, 使你無法如願前進.
但是, 你目前的辛勞肯定地會使你在未來得到巨大的發展.

You may now be faced with a situation in which, because of various problems and obstacles, you are unable to advance as you would wish.
However, your present painstaking efforts definitely ensure that you will experience great development in the future.

星期六, 8月 23, 2008

今日指導 八月二十四日

在佛法上, 每一個人都好比是自然世界.
無論你的環境絕得如冬天陰沉沉的天空般惡劣, 都要記得, 春夏之花正等着在你心中綻放.

Buddhism looks upon the individual human being as comparable to the natural world.
No matter how hopelessly adverse your circumstances may be, like a gloomy, winter sky, remember that the flowering seasons of spring and summer are waiting in your heart to blossom.

今日指導 八月二十三日

人有善惡兩面.
在成長的過程中, 你將會在兩者之間選擇其一.
若是向善方走, 幸福之道將逐漸為你展開; 若是向惡方走, 你將無可避免地會墮入地獄般痛苦的人生.

Human beings have both a good side and a bad side.
From here on, as you grow, you will be choosing in which of these two directions you will go.
If you pursue the good side, the path of happiness will gradually unfold for you.
If you choose the negative side, your choice will inevitably result in a life of hellish suffering.

今日指導 八月二十二日

社會上有許多意外發生.
謹慎固然重要, 但無論甚麼謹慎, 也是有個極限.
不管察覺與否, 唯一確實與基本的預防方法, 就是向着御本尊的認真祈求.

Many accidents happen in society.
Caution is of course important, but there are limits cautions one can be.
Whether one is consciously aware of it or not, the only sure and fundamental precaution is earnest prayer to the Gohonzon.

星期四, 8月 21, 2008

組織是有必要的, 因為我們能以御本尊為根本, 互相鼓勵, 互相保護, 在穩健的信心道路上無誤地前進.
不間歇地持續勤行與唱題是不可或缺的.

An organisation is needed so that, based on the Gohonzon, we can encourage each other, protect each other, and advance without error on the path of steadfast faith.
A consistent practice of gongyo and daimoku is essential.

星期三, 8月 20, 2008

今日指導 八月二十日

你單獨地來到這個世界, 也將單獨地離去.
這個生死的循環將永遠地持續下去.
你必須通過唱誦題目, 不斷地加強自己.
題目是最不可思議的醫藥, 而其功效是無限的.

You will born into this world alone and you will die alone.
This cycle will continue eternally.
You must continually strengthen yourself by chanting daimoku, the most wondrous medicine, whose efficacy is unlimited.
