隨時服務他人，終生幸福；有力不結善緣，後悔莫及。 One shall find lifelong happiness by being of service to others. Sow favorable conditions whenever one is able or regrets will - Master Sheng Yen

 

家業百年不墜因為積福，富貴不過三代由於自私。 Cultivate blessings, and family wealth may last for a hundred years; be selfish, and family fortunes will not survive three generations. Master Sheng Yen

 

布施是經營財富的價值，種福乃過手財富的原因。 The value of managing wealth lies in giving; the reason for possessing money is to cultivate blessings. - Master Sheng Yen

 

若不善用財富利益世人，便像錦衣夜行暗自驕矜。 One who does not use his wealth to benefit others is analogous to one who is all dressed up in complete darkness where no one can see him -- it is vain and foolish. - Master Sheng Yen

 

1 感恩是終生受用的福報，懷恨乃永世糾纏的魔障。 Harboring gratitude will nurture blessings that you can use all your life, harboring hatred will create obstructions that follow you - Master Sheng Yen

 

0 知恩報恩是飲水思源，恩情糾結會相互傷害。 Be grateful to and repay the kindness of others. Avoid emotional entanglement that causes suffering - Master Sheng Yen

 

父母之恩重於天地，三寶之德多過恆沙。 The kindness of one's parents is greater than heaven and earth; the virtues of the Three Jewels are greater than the countless grains of sand in the Ganges. - Master Sheng Yen
