English version: It is like a person who has eyes and walks on the right path. Therefore, it is said that a good friend indicates and guides you on the path to Bodhi. A good friend is your feet and legs. Following evil people will often sink you into the cycle of birth and death, while the protection of a good friend can invite you to ascend to liberation. This function is like feet and legs that can take people to distant places. Therefore, it is said that a good friend can bear you and help you escape the cycle of birth and death. A good friend is your ladder. Being in the cycle of birth and death is like being in a deep pit. The encouragement of a good friend can provide you with steps to climb, eventually escaping the deep pit. Therefore, it is said that a good friend can support you to reach the other shore. A good friend is your food and drink. Being entangled in evil will damage the Dharmakaya (法身). The teachings of a good friend can enable you to cultivate the practice of liberation, nourishing your inherent nature, just like food nourishes the body. Therefore, it is said that a good friend can enable you to grow your Dharmakaya. A good friend is your precious garment. From beginningless time, unwholesome habits have defiled the pure mind, causing it to drift in the five paths. Now, relying on a good friend to cultivate, breaking through defilement, and arising pure merits, the Dharmakaya will not change, following the flow of the world like a precious garment covering the body, unsoiled by dust. Therefore, it is said that a good friend can cover your body of merit. A good friend is your bridge. The compassion of the saints benefits sentient beings without weariness, so they can remain in the cycle of birth and death for a long time, saving sentient beings. Just like a bridge carries goods without fatigue. Therefore, it is said that a good friend can carry you across the sea of the Three Realms (欲有(Kāmadhātu), 色有(Rūpadhātu), 无色有(Arūpadhātu)). These Three Realms are where sentient beings are drowned in birth and death, both deep and wide, so they are likened to the sea. A good friend is your treasure. All sentient beings inherently possess countless merits like the sands of the Ganges from the beginning, but they are obscured by ignorance and cannot be manifested in the mind, just like a poor son, or a poor woman possessing a treasure. Now, receiving the guidance and revelation of a good friend, you see the true pearl within yourself, just like an elder opening the treasury and entrusting all the rare treasures to his son. Therefore, it is said that a good friend can rescue and protect you from the suffering of poverty. A good friend is your sun and moon. Ignorance obscures the truth like darkness. Relying on a good friend, observing in accordance with the truth, liberation arises, and delusion disappears, just like the sun dispels darkness. Therefore, it is said that a good friend can illuminate you and help you escape from darkness. A good friend is your body and life, cherishing life and rebirth. However, this continuity of thought is constant and uninterrupted. The saints are also like this, protecting and caring for sentient beings without abandoning them for a moment. When manifested, they are peaceful and at ease, following their hearts, and ultimately their reward body appears in the world, always preserving their life and wealth. Therefore, it is said that a good friend can cherish and protect you, without... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: These are your armor and weapons. Armor and weapons protect the body, and externally they can defend against strong enemies and resentment. Relying on good friends, one's self is strengthened, and then Mara cannot harm you. Therefore, it is said, 'Subdue you all these Maras, so that you may obtain fearlessness.' Mara refers to the four Maras: first, the Klesha Mara (烦恼魔), meaning the Mara of afflictions; second, the Skandha Mara (阴魔), meaning the Mara of the five aggregates; third, the Deva Mara (天魔), meaning the Mara of the heavens; and fourth, the Heretical Mara (外道), meaning the Mara of external paths. These are your ropes. The three realms are like a prison, confining sentient beings. Good friends, with compassion, remove suffering and give peace, just like a prisoner receiving help from a jailer. Therefore, it is said, 'Pull you out of hell.' These are your wonderful medicines. The Dharma can dispel delusion, and its effect is like that of good medicine. Practicing according to the Dharma, there is nothing that cannot be destroyed. Just like a person taking medicine, wherever they go, their illness is eliminated. Therefore, it is said, 'Cure you of your afflictions.' These are your sharp knives. Rebirth in Samsara is truly due to craving and desire. Like a fishing net. The teachings of good friends can ultimately break the net of craving, just like a sharp knife can cut through anything. Therefore, it is said, 'Cut off your nets of all kinds of craving.' These are your timely rains. When plants are about to wither, they will grow when they receive the nourishment of rain. Good friends benefit others, then the sprouts of Bodhi will flourish, just like sweet rain falling everywhere, and the sprouts are universally nourished. Therefore, it is said, 'Moisten and purify your Bodhi sprouts.' These are your bright lamps. The essence of wisdom is pure and can illuminate the coverings and entanglements, just like a bright lamp, darkness is dispelled. This is entirely due to the merit of good friends that this can be accomplished. Therefore, it can break the darkness of your five coverings. The five coverings (五盖) are: first, greed (贪欲); second, anger (瞋恚); third, sleepiness (睡眠); fourth, restlessness and remorse (掉悔); and fifth, doubt (疑). These are your good signposts. When crossing a deep river, there is a watchtower to guide the direction, approaching the shallows, gradually able to reach the other side, no longer having the worry of drowning. Draw near to good friends, follow their teachings and practice, the crossing of the sea of Samsara will eventually come to an end. Therefore, it is said, 'Instruct you to go to the right path.' These are your firewood. Relying on good friends to learn wisdom, burning the firewood of afflictions, the merit will accomplish great fruits, and the benefits are endless. Therefore, it is said, 'Mature your Nirvana food.' These are your bows and arrows. What harms good roots is only afflictions, robbing people of their merits, just like robbers. Diligently cultivate right contemplation to eliminate them, just like shooting an arrow to wound a bad person. The principle is the same. Therefore, it is said, 'Shoot and kill your thieves of afflictions.' These are your brave generals. When strong enemies invade, one must rely on brave generals, life and death These are your brave generals. When strong enemies invade, one must rely on brave generals, life and death --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
