76 學歷不代表身分，能力不代表人格，名位不代表品德 ，工作沒有貴賤，觀念及行為卻能決定一切。Education does not determine identity; competence does not determine integrity; fame does not determine virtue. No occupation is in itself great or lowly. Everything is decided by what you think and how you act. - Master Sheng Yen

 

75 過去、未來、名位、職稱，都要看成與自己無關， 但求過得積極、活得快樂，便是幸福自在的人生。See that neither the past, the future, fame, or position have anything to do with you. A happy and energetic life is itself freedom and good fortune. - Master Sheng Yen

 

74 被煩惱撞著了，此時最好享受自己呼吸的感覺. When vexations descend upon you, it is best to enjoy the sensation of breathing. - Master Sheng Yen

 

73 心中有阻礙時，眼中的世界皆不平； 心中無困擾時，眼前的世界都美好。 An encumbered mind sees a world out of balance. An undisturbed mind sees a world of beauty. - Master Sheng Yen

 

72 心不開朗就是苦，心境豁達就能轉苦為樂。A closed and clouded mind is suffering. An open and clear mind can transform suffering into happiness. - Master Sheng Yen

 

71 生滅現象是世間常態， 若能洞察生滅現象，便是智者。The arising and perishing of phenomena is the way of the world. The wise thoroughly penetrate this arising and perishing. - Master Sheng Yen

 

心裡如果「打結」了， 最好能向內觀看自己的起心動念處。 When your mind is tied into a knot, it is best to reflect deeply into the place where mind arises and thoughts move. = Master Sheng Yen
