第十七世大寶法王:佛法的利益
佛陀和他的弟子們曾經說過,佛法的利益是來自如理如法的佛法修持。單單聽聞少許的佛法,不會讓人獲得它所有的好處。如果不作實修,你會認為佛法沒有用處,尤其在你遭遇問題而束手無策時更是如此。你甚至可能就此放棄佛法,以致再也不能從中獲益。要享用佛法真實的利益,就得先實修。
The Benefits of Dharma ~ 17th Karmapa
The benefits of dharma recounted by the Buddha and his disciples are the results of the proper practice of dharma. You cannot reap all those benefits just by listening to a few teachings. If you do not practice, you will think that the dharma does not work – especially when problems arise and you cannot deal with them. You might even give up the dharma and never benefit from it. To enjoy its positive effects, practice it first.
