如果一個人心正，就是佛做主；心不正，就是魔做主。
所以悟者識本性，迷者永輪迴，明心方見性，
悟者識菩提。你們能永遠找到菩提，就是菩薩！
With the right mindset, you let the Buddha be your guide.
With a deviant mindset, you let demons become your guide.The
enlightened recognise their true nature, whereas the lost suffer the
endless cycle of rebirth.Only when you understand your mind can you see the
intrinsic nature.Only when you become enlightened will you discover
Bodhi. If you can always find Bodhi, you are a Bodhisattva!。
18.
心態決定人生，心靈要有慈悲心，要有寬恕心，
要能夠理解他人。不能夠原諒他人的人，最後傷害的一定是自己。
Our state of mind determines our destiny.We must approach
people with compassion, forgiveness and understanding.If we
refuse to forgive, we will end up hurting ourselves。
19.
成功時不要忘記自己的過去，失敗時也不要忘記我們還有未來，
一條路走不通，我們還會走第二條路，我們還能拐彎。
When we succeed, we must not forget our past.
When we fail, we must remember there is still tomorrow.
When the path leads to nowhere,we can always
take another path. We can make a diversion。
20.
一花獨放不是春，百花齊放春滿園。我們不僅要自修，還要廣度眾生；
我們要成為觀世音菩薩的千手千眼，幫助人們離苦得樂；
有廣大的慈悲心，才能慈航普度。
A single flower does not make spring,
yet one hundred flowers in full blossom bring
spring to the garden.We should not only engage in
self-practice, but also extensively transform to her sentient
beings.Be one of the hands and eyes of Guan Yin Bodhisattva
to liberate people fromsuffering.Only when we have great
compassion can we help and transform people far and wide。
21.
憂則天地皆窄，怨則到處為仇，
哀則束縛自己，怒則大敵當頭，此乃心靈大敵。
These are the nemeses of our spiritual cultivation:
Worries—they narrow our perspectives;
Resentments—they provoke hostility;
Griefs—they obstruct our advancement;
Anger—it invites enemies。
22.
剛學佛，想成佛——難。堅持學佛，
想成佛——近佛。精進學佛，想成佛——真佛！
Although it is difficult for a novice practitioner to
attain Buddhahood, their persistence in practising Buddhism
will get them closer to the goal.Their diligence in practising
Buddhism will eventually make them a real Buddha。
23.
眾生難度才要度，佛法難聞才要聞。
救眾生慧命超脫六道輪迴，讓眾生改命成全眾生佛道。
Transforming sentient beings is very difficult,
that is why we do it. The opportunity to encounter the
Buddha’s teachings is very rare, that is why we cherish it.
We strive to elevate the spirituality of sentient beings to liberate
them from the cycle of rebirth.We strive to transform their
destinies so that they can attain Buddhahood。
24.
君子改過，小人飾非。改過的人會開悟，飾非的人會迷誤，
永遠要懂得改過自己的缺點比掩蓋自己的錯誤要好。
A virtuous person corrects their mistakes,
whereas a petty person covers up their flaws.Those
who correct their mistakes will become enlightened;
those who cover up flaws will get lost.It is always
better to correct our mistakes than to cover them up。
