按照仪轨,无论如何去思维,都只会让我对您,怙主,生起信心。如是说。我舍弃其他导师,向您寻求庇护。为何如此呢?因为您没有过失,且具足功德。如是说。因此,如果违犯了任何舍弃其他皈依的学处,虽然不会从根本上舍弃皈依,但由于这种过失,会导致相续变得低劣,并堕入恶趣等。例如,就像全身布满伤口的人非常谨慎一样,应当以忆念、正知和谨慎之心,严谨守护,不使哪怕是细微的学处有所违犯。第三,舍弃的原因是:以前不相信三宝,而依赖世间神祇作为皈依;由于做了各种愚痴的业,其相应的业力现在也显现出来,就像豺狼生起恶念一样,福德耗尽的人自然会产生恶念,因此,被颠倒错乱的恶分别所趁,那些相续充满恶念的人,虽然由于世间的名声,口头上念诵三宝的名号和皈依祈祷等,但实际上却与此相悖,因此对三宝不能一心一意,心怀二意,犹豫是否会救护,心生二念。对于这样的人,三宝的慈悲和加持都不会进入,因为他们是恶劣的容器。因此,在他们的相续中,对于三宝在暂时和长远上都不会欺骗,并且一定会救护的道理,其定解的信心会减弱甚至消失。作为这种迹象,虽然在世间冠以神祇和地主等的名号,但实际上却依赖于那些精通游荡的饿鬼,他们通过业力获得了一些神通和先知,并进行与佛法相违背的罪恶祭祀和赞颂等,从而寄托希望。并且,他们也完全信任那些在世间法中拥有少许权势的国王、大臣和罪恶的朋友等。然而,这些人除了暂时带来一些微小的损害外,并不能提供救护,虽然表面上看起来通过财物等方式给予了一些微小的帮助,但越是依赖他们,就越会被引入非法的歧途,从而导致今生

According to the ritual, no matter how I think, it will only make me have faith in you, the protector. So it is said. I abandon other teachers and seek refuge in you. Why is that? Because you have no faults and are full of virtues. So it is said. Therefore, if any of the precepts of abandoning other refuges are violated, although refuge is not abandoned from the root, due to this fault, the continuum will become inferior and fall into evil destinies, etc. For example, just as a person whose whole body is covered with wounds is very careful, one should be vigilant with mindfulness, awareness, and caution, and protect oneself from violating even the slightest precept. Third, the reason for abandoning is: in the past, one did not believe in the Three Jewels, but relied on worldly deities as refuge; because of doing various ignorant deeds, the corresponding karma now also appears, just like a jackal giving rise to evil thoughts, people whose merits are exhausted will naturally have evil thoughts, therefore, those whose continuums are full of evil thoughts are taken advantage of by inverted and confused evil thoughts, although they verbally recite the names of the Three Jewels and refuge prayers, etc., due to worldly fame, but in reality it is contrary to this, therefore, they cannot be single-minded towards the Three Jewels, and have two minds, hesitating whether they will protect, and have two thoughts. For such people, the compassion and blessings of the Three Jewels will not enter, because they are inferior vessels. Therefore, in their continuum, the certainty of the Three Jewels not deceiving in the short and long term, and definitely protecting, will weaken or even disappear. As a sign of this, although they are named after deities and landlords, etc. in the world, in reality they rely on those wandering ghosts who are proficient, who have obtained some supernatural powers and clairvoyance through karma, and perform sinful sacrifices and praises, etc. that are contrary to the Dharma, thereby placing hope. Moreover, they also completely trust kings, ministers, and evil friends, etc. who have a little power in worldly affairs. However, these people cannot provide protection except for temporarily bringing some minor harm, although it seems that they give some minor help through wealth, etc., the more they rely on them, the more they will be introduced into illegal wrong paths, leading to this life

如今那些有权有势的人,最终也会失去一切,死于刀剑之下吗?因饥饿或寒冷而死的情况也极为常见。来世也将堕入恶道。正如梵天所加持的经文所说:吞噬佛陀的恶人,是悬崖上的至尊,世间众生都无法救护。心胸狭隘之人,已从教法中堕落,无依无靠之人,终将堕入恶道。如果依仗如此低劣的庇护,积累非法的罪恶之道,今生或许不会受到三宝的惩罚,反而长寿、富裕、无病,生活安乐。但这只是因为前世积累的些许善果,在今生一同成熟,享受殆尽后,来世便会堕入恶道,难以获得解脱的机会。有些人虽然信赖三宝,如法修行,但今生却贫困潦倒,疾病缠身,遭遇诸多不如意。这正是三宝的慈悲和佛法的加持,使他们将往昔积累的恶业,通过今生所经历的不如意和些许痛苦而消耗殆尽,从此以后便能迎来幸福的开端。因此,对于那些具有智慧,并深信业果之人来说,这些经历会成为他们信仰的助缘,不会产生怀疑。然而,那些心智低下,没有佛法缘分的人,却会以此为依据,认为业果并不真实,无论作何恶事都不会有不良后果。在罪恶的果报尚未成熟之前,他们看不到罪恶的危害。正如《事类集》中所说:罪业未成熟之前,恶行看似可行;一旦罪业成熟时,方能见到罪业之果。因此,对于那些生于三宝光明照耀之地,却如同盲人般看不到三宝功德的可怜之人,三宝的慈悲和加持没有机会进入他们的心中。然而,对于有福之人来说,他们会依靠三宝慈悲的阳光,成办今生来世一切美好的事业。三宝陀罗尼经。

Now, will those who have power and influence eventually lose everything and die by the sword? Deaths from starvation or cold are also very common. In the future, they will also go to the lower realms. As it is said in the text blessed by Brahma: The evil one who devours the Buddha is the supreme on the cliff, and all beings in the world cannot protect him. The narrow-minded one has fallen from the teachings, and the helpless one will eventually fall into the lower realms. If one relies on such inferior protection and accumulates a great path of non-dharma, one may not experience the punishment of the Three Jewels in this life, but instead live long, be wealthy, healthy, and live happily. However, this is only because the slight virtuous results of the past are ripening together in this life, and after enjoying them, one will fall into the lower realms in the future, making it very difficult to obtain liberation. Some, although trusting in the Three Jewels and practicing according to the Dharma, may experience poverty, many illnesses, and other undesirable things in this life. This is because the compassion of the Three Jewels and the blessings of the Dharma exhaust all the evil deeds accumulated in the past through the undesirable experiences and slight suffering experienced in this life, so that from then on, they can usher in the beginning of happiness. Therefore, for those who are wise and believe in karma, these experiences will become a cause for their faith and will not cause doubt. However, those who are of low intelligence and have no connection to the Dharma will use this as a basis to think that karma is not true and that there are no bad consequences for doing anything evil. Until the fruit of sin has not ripened, they do not see the harm of sin. As it is said in the Compendium of Topics: As long as sin has not ripened, sin seems permissible; when sin has ripened, then the fruit of sin will be seen. Therefore, for those unfortunate ones who are born in a place illuminated by the light of the Three Jewels but are like blind people who cannot see the qualities of the Three Jewels, there is no opportunity for the compassion and blessings of the Three Jewels to enter their hearts. However, for those who are fortunate, they will rely on the sunlight of the compassion of the Three Jewels to accomplish all the good deeds of this and future lives. The Three Jewels Dharani Sutra.

就像盲人自己虽然看不见,但它(太阳)并非不存在,而是照耀着整个世界。有眼睛的人认识到显现,然后每个人都各自从事自己的事业。等等。 第四,它的对治法是:在这个世界上,那些自认为永恒存在的地基、天空、须弥山和四大部洲等等的构造,现在这些上下存在的位置,未来器世界会毁灭,一切都将空无,所以显现为坚固的地基和须弥山的这些地方,只会变成天空。而且,从开始形成时,风轮依靠天空的位置支撑着地基等等,所以位置非常混乱。由于作为星辰基础的地球风轮毁坏,日月也无法各自安住,因此出现了坠落到地面的说法。或者,那些依靠在天空中恒常运行的日月宫殿中的天子们,也可能坠落到地面上下散落的地方。但是,如果立誓三宝为皈依处,按照佛陀的教言修行,那么三宝的慈悲和如来真实的语言是永远不会欺骗的,这种道理对于圣者们来说是显而易见的,所以永远不会从三宝那里改变心意。现在,在最初的阶段,通过推理的方式,从内心产生定解,无论发生什么都不会改变心意,并且非常坚定,这在任何情况下都是具有长远意义的,因此非常重要。经中说:天空可能会变成大地,或者大地可能会变成天空,但如来所说的话,绝不会改变。 第五,讲述守护戒律的利益:像这样皈依之后,无论在快乐或痛苦、好或坏的时候,都不要忘记三宝的慈悲和加持的功德,而是忆念着如法守护戒律的利益是:即使在梦中,如果出现落入水中或被敌人和野兽追赶等景象,那么立刻就能见到三宝,或者仅仅是忆念并祈祷,那些恐惧就会平息。即使生起不善的恶念,也会因佛陀和菩萨们的心而感到羞愧,并且

Like a blind person who cannot see, it (the sun) is not non-existent, but shines upon the whole world. Those with eyes recognize the appearances, and then everyone engages in their own activities. And so on. Fourth, the antidote to this is: In this world, the arrangements of the earth, sky, Mount Meru, and the four continents, etc., which are presumed to be permanent, even these positions that exist up and down now, in the future, the world of containers will be destroyed, and everything will become empty. Therefore, the places that appear as solid earth and Mount Meru will only become sky. Moreover, from the beginning of formation, the wind mandala supports the earth, etc., in the position of the sky, so the position is very chaotic. Because the earth's wind wheel, which is the basis of the planets and stars, is destroyed, the sun and moon cannot stay in their respective positions, so the term 'falling to the ground' is established. Or, the sons of the gods who rely on the immeasurable palaces of the sun and moon that constantly move in the sky may also fall to the places where they are scattered above and below the earth. However, if one vows to take refuge in the Three Jewels and practices according to the Buddha's teachings, then the compassion of the Three Jewels and the truthful words of the Tathagata will never deceive. This is obvious to the noble ones, so they will never change their minds from the Three Jewels. Now, in the initial stage, by means of inference, certainty arises from within, and no matter what happens, the mind will not change and will be very firm. This is of great importance in all respects, both immediately and in the long term. Therefore, it is very important. The sutra says: 'The sky may become the earth, or the earth may become the sky, but the words spoken by the Tathagata will never change.' Fifth, explaining the benefits of keeping the precepts: Having taken refuge in this way, whether in times of happiness or sorrow, good or bad, do not forget the qualities of the compassion and blessings of the Three Jewels, but remember that the benefits of keeping the precepts properly are: Even in a dream, if one sees oneself falling into water or being chased by enemies and wild animals, one will immediately see the Three Jewels, or simply by remembering and praying, those fears will be pacified. Even if an unwholesome thought arises, one will feel ashamed by the minds of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and by the holy Dharma and

认识到过患,忆念对治的谨慎,不投入于恶行,从而戒律清净,禅定稳固,智慧明晰,以诸如此类的功德,此生富足,来世及前世忆念对三宝的信心等功德,欢喜增长与此相应的信心和皈依等善法之聚。于中阴境,得见诸佛菩萨尊颜,或忆念彼等之功德,以信心等之力,一切错觉与怖畏自然平息,易于往生净土与天界。最终,圆满一切道地的功德,现证圆满正觉,安住于三宝之体性中,成为能摧伏一切有情众生罪恶之军旅,能将众生安置于增上生与决定胜果位之利益,能成办此利益之殊胜善友。

Recognizing faults, remembering the mindfulness that avoids them, and not engaging in bad deeds, one's discipline becomes pure, one's samadhi stable, and one's wisdom clear. With all such qualities, one prospers in this life. In future lives and previous lives, one remembers the qualities such as faith in the Three Jewels, and rejoices in increasing the accumulation of virtue such as faith and refuge, which are in accordance with this. In the intermediate state, one sees the faces of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, or remembers their qualities, and through the power of faith and so on, all illusions and fears are naturally pacified, making it easy to travel to pure lands and heavenly realms. Ultimately, all the qualities of the paths and bhumis are perfected, and one attains complete and perfect enlightenment. Abiding in the essence of the Three Jewels, one becomes the supreme friend who accomplishes the benefit of subduing all the faults of all sentient beings, raising an army that is manifestly high, and placing them in the state of definite goodness.
