Why must we learn the precepts, maintain the precepts and let our ethical discipline be pure? It is for the sake of achieving happiness! Because all living beings in their hearts yearned for coolness and blissfulness. Buddha had already pointed out this segment of the path to us and it is ethical discipline! How to perform every task was disclosed very clearly in detail like an illuminating lamp, the steps to take are steadfast and we can depend on it to walk the path. Though the world is so vast, what should we persevere? The longer we persevere, the more we will experience the coolness, as if there is a luminous moon, bright and radiant in our hearts.
《希望·新生》【四季法语】夏 #144 Summer · Four Seasons Words of Wisdom [Hope·Embark]
为什么要学戒、持戒、让戒律清净呢？就是为了得到快乐啊！因为所有生命都渴望内心的那一份清凉和悦意，而这一段路佛陀已经指给我们了，就是戒律！每一件事怎么做全部都说得清清楚楚，如灯明照，脚下踏实，依之而行，大千虽阔，何事非持？持之越久，清凉越胜，彷佛有一轮明月，朗耀内心。
