Practicing Generosity

行布施

有一人向釋佛訴苦:「我不管做什麼事都會失敗,這是為什麼?」  

A man lamented to Lord Buddha : ‘ No matter what I do, I failed, why is it so ?’

佛說:「因你從不佈施!」那人答說:「可我是一無所有的窮人!」

Buddha said: ‘Because you don’t give for charity!’ The man replied: ‘I am penniless.’

釋佛開示:「不對!即使你沒有財富,也可以給人 7 種佈施!」 

Lord Buddha : ‘ That’s wrong, though you are not wealthy, you can practice 7 types generosity.’

人生有苦難,有重擔,人性有邪惡,有欺凌 ,

In life, there are hardship and burden;

There are good and evil characters;

There is humiliation.

但是到後來這些都對我有益處,苦難竟是化了妝的祝福 .

Nevertheless, all these benefit me in the end, for hardships are blessings in disguise.

人生在一連串不完美中,最後總是完美 .

In life, after all the shortcomings, it is always beautiful at last.

佈施不是有錢人的專利  ,而是有心人的參與

Doing charity is not for the rich only, it is for anyone who has the heart to do it.
