The Three Pure Precepts

The Three Pure Precepts, sometimes called the Three Root Precepts.

A common translation is :

1) To do no evil 
means to refrain from causing harm to oneself and to others.

2) To do good
means to uncover and to act from the loving kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy and equanimity of our awakened nature.

3) To save all beings
means to offer people the opportunity to discover and express their awakened nature.

识与智


弥勒菩萨说:“分别是识,无分别是智;依识染,依智净;染有生死,净无诸佛”。

Contentment

Everything has its limits. Too much consumption or effort to make money is not good. Neither is too much contentment. In principle, contentment should be pursued, but pure contentment is almost suicidal.
