It isn’t easy for us to obtain human body and after obtaining, it isn’t easy to find our way to Buddhism. Even if we do, it’s even harder for us to hearing, thinking and practice Buddha Dharma. Therefore when studying Buddhism, we shouldn’t be satisfied with only understanding the text content, but think deeply how could we integrate it into our heart. If we couldn’t achieve this, there’s no point reciting theory of thousands and that we won’t be able to soften our thought nor to regularize our behavior.

我們得到人身不容易,得人身後進入佛門不容易,入佛門後能聽聞、思維、修行佛法則更不容易。所以學習佛法時不能滿足於僅了解文字上的內容,還要認真思維將佛法融入心裡。如果未能將佛法融入自心,即使能夠背誦千經萬論也毫無用處,也無法調柔自己的相續、規範自己的行為。
