佛陀教導我們眾多的法門，其目的與意義使人能於此生證得超越解脫；
其根本教義內容基礎提醒我們存在的真實狀態。
緣起，是一個存有的事實，而這事實與我們生命有著密切關係。
「空」事實上是緣起法則下的自然面貌。
「中道」是活潑自然的實踐觀。所謂處中之動態智慧，
於此世中都能離開有無、得失…等等相待的二邊，而體證空性。
身心自然清安，是因為如實的觀照。
心住空性中道、心境閑脫而無所執，
自然容易洞徹宇宙人生的真相。

無所執便無我所，無我所便無掛礙。
生命中所有的憂悲苦惱，都能在這樣的空性中道實踐下，自然消解。
人與人之間是一種緣份
心與心之間是一種交流
情與情之間是一顆真心
錯與錯之間是一個原諒

學習佛法是要你去珍惜
感恩一切在你身邊的人
事、物、時……
在這容易迷失的時代，放任式的生活無法找到正確的道路，佛法引導是很重要的。
吉祥

A Share of the Soul Bodhi

The Buddha taught us various dharma approaches in the hope that people could confirm, transcend, and liberate in this life. The fundamental doctrines remind us of the real status of existence.

The rise of affinities is a fact of existence that has much to do with our life. Emptiness is in fact a natural phenomenon under the rule of the rise of affinities. The Middle Way is the lively, natural fulfillment view. The moving wisdom of staying in the middle keeps one away from the relativity like existence vs. non-existence, gain vs. loss, and so on in this life and makes one experience and confirm emptiness.

The body and mind naturally become pure and peaceful because of the realistic observation. If one’s mind abides in emptiness and the Middle Way, gets open and liberated, and adheres to nothing, then he will penetrate the reality of the universe and life.

If one adheres to nothing, he will own nothing. If one owns nothing, he will have no hindrance. All the worries, sadness, and afflictions in life will naturally disappear under the fulfillment of emptiness and the Middle Way.

Affinities exist between people, and exchange exists between hearts.
A sincere heart exists in love, and forgiveness exists for wrongdoings.
When cultivating Buddhism, you have to cherish and be grateful for all the people, matters, objects, chances, etc. around you.

In this lost era, the indulging way of life cannot help one find a correct path. So it is very important to have the guidance of Buddhism.

Auspiciousness to you all.
