If you expose others' faults casually without observation and say particularly ugly rude words, it will disturb others' hearts, and for those who have developed Mahayana Bodhisattva, it will ruin the noble behavior of the Bodhisattva. Therefore, no matter on what occasions and with what kind of people, we should speak a language that is gentle, pleasant, meaningful and clear, and never say anything that makes people unhappy and hurts people's hearts, so as to prevent rude words from being Mahayana's behavior.
among the three doors of Mahayana pedestrians, language discipline is very important. The Buddhist scripture says, "Therefore, speak softly, but Mo Yan is displeased with it. If you speak sweet words, you will become good and innocent. Be sure to speak soft language, and never say words that hurt people's hearts. If you speak sweet language, the speaker will not be infected with sin, and the cause of goodness and bodhi will be planted from generation to generation. Now some people may not have enough moral cultivation. They can't hold back some meaningful, compassionate and bodhi language, but they are very capable of swearing, especially swearing. The same is true of some Buddhist friends. Let him tell a simple and obvious lesson, as if he had a stone in his mouth, and he couldn't spit out a word. Then if he said someone else's fault, the stone would have been taken out by then, and his eloquence was quite good.
Nowadays, the society is particularly upside down. The Internet is full of tricks to teach you to swear. What swearing websites, cursing books, wonderful stories of swearing, cursing clips, etc., if you create bad karma, you will get worse every time. Some people write books to make people exercise their eloquence and swear. Those who have no morality and low self-cultivation will learn these things as soon as they learn. In the past, when we were studying, we didn't understand any Chinese at first, but I still remember the swearing words of the Han nationality very clearly. This kind of teaching is very rich in my stomach. Maybe many of you are the same. You have been in contact with people with low quality for a long time and know nothing about noble knowledge, but you can just say those words that are unpleasant to the ear.
In fact, speaking can also reflect a person's quality. If you are a good person and have a good moral education, then when you talk to others, your language is soft and pleasant, and what you say is full of words. As the saying goes, "A good word warms three winters, and a bad word hurts people in June. Speaking harsh language to others, I can't recover for a long time. Some of our Tibetan sayings are: "Although there is no sharp word, it can pierce people's hearts. ""the wounds cut with a knife have a chance to heal, and the wounds of evil words are difficult to heal.
We should always observe what we should say and what we shouldn't say. Unfortunately, many people don't have this kind of opportunity and learning environment now, and even some teachers in the school can't bring him a positive impact. However, if you stay with good knowledge from an early age, you will be well trained in this respect and won't say those words at all. The book of friends and relatives uses honey, flowers and unclean feces to compare the three languages: sweet language, true language and dirty language. We practitioners should accept the first two, try our best to speak pleasant language with real meaning and cut off the true language of lies, otherwise, it is unreasonable to speak lies as soon as we open our mouths.
Some people think that swearing is more powerful, and it is easier to undertake things. This idea is wrong. French writer La Fontaine once wrote such a fable: The north wind and the south wind compete to see who can blow off a person's coat. The north wind first exerted its power and blew fiercely. In order to resist the attack of the north wind, the man wrapped his coat more tightly. The south wind blows slowly, and suddenly it is sunny, and the man gradually feels warm all over, then unbuttons and takes off his coat. Good words are like the south wind, and rude words are like the north wind. Fools think that when doing things, you must use rude language to succeed, while wise people can handle things very satisfactorily with tactful language.
Of course, when I say I will, I'm afraid many Taoist friends will laugh at me if I really do it. But it doesn't matter if you laugh at me. I preached according to the teachings of the monk Dade, but I didn't say that I could do it 1%. But the truth is really like this. I myself have the confidence to develop in a good way every day, and this desire has never been abandoned. I sometimes envy the words of the venerable Adi Gorge: "Always smile, be compassionate and bodhi, stay away from all anger, and talk with fairness and integrity.
I repeat, "Always smile", don't frown, it makes people uncomfortable. Some people may be karma from past lives, and they have an angry face. No matter how much they laugh, there is nothing they can do. I see that every one of you is smiling now, as if you are particularly compassionate. It would be really good if you can do this from time to time. But after class for a while, I may get angry for a little thing, and the wrinkles on my face will accumulate immediately. ) and then "talk with compassion and bodhicitta, stay away from all anger, and talk with fairness and integrity." When talking with others, don't mix selfish heart and insulting language. It seems that the world has been in chaos to say this mistake and that mistake, and people feel uncomfortable when they open their mouths.
we ordinary people should have a constraint. However, some Taoist friends who didn't know Buddhism before seem to know something now, and they will pay attention to whatever they do. This is really an improvement. Otherwise, speaking rude words without restraint may lead to particularly terrible consequences. There was a story about a man who was feeding his chickens, and his neighbor's chickens ran over to grab food. He might be in a bad temper and broke his feet with a stone. When the neighbor saw it, he scolded, "Who dares to smash my chicken? The two men went from swearing to fighting, and the last one shot and killed the other four people. Four precious lives were lost for a rude word.
Therefore, Mai Peng Rinpoche said in "Monarch's Speech and Language Products" that friendship and conflict in the world are all produced by language. If you don't master the tricks, you may make a big mistake. As a yogi, it is shameful if you don't even know the basic language norms. In particular, those who study Mahayana Buddhism must figure out how to communicate with others and put an end to the mistake of speaking rude words.
