The Simple Joys of Chan Meditation :3 days Youth Meditation Retreat 2010 @ Poh Ern Shih


What is being free and happy?
Being free and happy is to
let go of defilements, judgments, prejudices and
to live and appreciate this very moment.
How to live the moment?
Your mind stays with you wherever you are and at any moment.
Let's go through these 3 days of meditation to experience the simple joy
from the calmness of spirit that meditation has brought to us.

自在快乐是什么?
是放下执著、妄念、分别心 ,活在现在。
怎么活在现在?
那就是身在那里,心就在那里。
通过这三天的禅修活动来体验
身心的安定所带来的
自在快乐。

欣赏别人的优点。了解自己的缺点。

大家请每每学习并时时刻刻地用,保证缺点越来越少。


Venerable's words (translated):

Admire the good of others. Understand your failings.

Learn the good of others. Learn and rectify from your failings.

Do not be jealous of the good of others. Do not expose your failings.


Learn these and often apply them to your everyday life, and
your failings will be lesser and lesser.
