【玳瑚師父隨筆錄】 《展望2015》
A Hopeful Step Into 2015 (English version below)
年關將近時,到處都看到派對、倒數慶祝等活動。世人的欲望很重,也不懂福禍相依的道理。
在新的一年的第一天,多發一點點善力,至少做一件善事。
這些年來,世界各地的天災地禍都很多。這樣的一種尋歡作樂不能夠化解這世間災禍連連的命運。
但如果每個人都發一個善念,這些善念就能夠感動天。
共業需要共善來化解。群策群力也。

As the end of 2014 draws to a close, we see parties, countdown events and celebrations everywhere. The desires of mankind are strong, and they do not understand that fortune and disaster always come hand in hand, one after another.
Today is the first day of 2015, please display some kindness and do at least one virtuous deed. The past few years had been strewed with disasters, both natural and man-made. The merry-making that mankind indulge themselves in cannot change the fate of consecutive disasters, one after another, that the world is experiencing.
However, if each and every one of us generates a virtuous thought and intention, the Heavens will surely be touched. To resolve the collective negative karma, the world needs a collective consciousness of kindness and virtue. We must all pool our wisdom and efforts together and move as one.
