吉噶康楚仁波切：從某種意義來說，找藉口乃是讓困惑免受智慧照見的保護傘

人們有時會說：「我沒有真的生氣，只是這發生在我身上、那發生在我身上，一點都不對。」我們可以一邊這麼說著、宣稱自己沒生氣，一邊還繼續怨恨難咽。即使有最好的藉口，也無法緩解或減少受擾之心的苦痛。而我們的藉口，只是不想面對自毀性習氣和神經質的手段，那些是我們試著說服自己不用改變的自欺手法。從某種意義來說，找藉口乃是讓困惑免受智慧照見的保護傘。

~ 吉噶康楚仁波切

~ 出自《祥和心》

Sometimes people say, “I’m not really angry, but this is happening to me and that’s happening to me, and it’s not right.” We can say these words and claim not to be angry while continuing to chew on our resentment. Even the best excuse will not relieve or lessen the pain of a disturbed heart. Our excuses are simply tactics to avoid confronting our self-destructive habits and neuroses. They are methods of self-delusion by which we try to convince ourselves that we don’t have to change. In a sense, making excuses is a way of protecting our confusion from our own wisdom.
