Aṅguttaranikāya 增支部2.31-32Kataññusutta 感恩回报经
世尊说:比库们,我说你们不能够报答两个人的恩情。那两个人呢?
就是母亲和父亲。比库们,如果你担你的父母亲在你的肩膀上,过上
百年,并同时摩擦和按摩他们的身体,甚至让他们在你身上解决尿液
和粪便,就算是这样,你还是不能回报他们的恩情。
"I tell you, monks, there are two people who are not easy to repay. Which two? Your mother & father. Even if you were to carry your mother on one shoulder & your father on the other shoulder for 100 years, and were to look after them by anointing, massaging, bathing, & rubbing their limbs, and they were to defecate & urinate right there [on your shoulders], you would not in that way pay or repay your parents.
即使你给予他们一切的财富,使他们统治这整个地球,你也还没有回
报他们的恩情。这是因为他们为你付出了更多。他们在你还未学会走
路的时候,养育你,教导你认识这个世界。
If you were to establish your mother & father in absolute sovereignty over this great earth, abounding in the seven treasures, you would not in that way pay or repay your parents. Why is that? Mother & father do much for their children. They care for them, they nourish them, they introduce them to this world.
如果你的母亲和父亲(对佛、法、僧)没有信心,你灌输他们信心。
如果他们没有美德,你灌输他们美德。如果他们吝啬,你使他们学会
仁慈和布施。如果他们没有智慧,你使他们有智慧。这样的话,你对
于他们的回报可以说是已经超越了他们给予的恩情了。
But anyone who rouses his unbelieving mother & father, settles & establishes them in conviction; rouses his unvirtuous mother & father, settles & establishes them in virtue; rouses his stingy mother & father, settles & establishes them in generosity; rouses his foolish mother & father, settles & establishes them in discernment: To this extent one pays & repays one's mother & father." |

随喜赞叹!
能让父母师长亲人眷属朋友接触佛法学佛是最好的报恩。 |
