Dharma King Ruyibao: No matter where you live, it is important to stay away from evil friends anytime and anywhere!

For everyone, getting along with good friends is extremely important. Hua Zhi Rinpoche once said: If you have friends with greed, anger and ignorance, you will become a person with greed, anger and ignorance.

If you have confidence and compassion in your relationship, you will become a confident and compassionate person. Therefore, before you achieve the state of enlightenment, what will you become, you only rely on your friends.

No matter where you live in a city or a mountain temple, it is important to stay away from evil friends anytime and anywhere. As a monk, if you like to do business, interact with him, it means that you will also become a businessman.

If you like a scholar, dating him means you will become a scholar. If you like a scholar, dating him means you will also become a practitioner. If you like a scholar, dating him means you will also become a practitioner. If you are dating a bad friend, it means you are also a bad person.

If you want to observe whether someone is a good person, then you can tell whether he is speaking or not, and then you can see his behavior. If that person lives with merchants, wanderers, and thieves, it proves that he is also a treacherous person and a stealer.

Don’t many people say, “Some monk is a noble person, but he is finished by dating a bad friend”? Although you have dated bad friends before, it is important to have friendly friends in the future.

Just as the master Mipham Rinpoche said, "We should eliminate all distractions. If we cannot eliminate them, we should be a good teacher. That is your wonderful medicine. ”

It means that if you really cannot stop distracting, then you will interact with friends who have merits and will infect you with merits. Furthermore, everyone should be compassionate to everyone and not be angry with people from all over the world.

Even if we cannot be unwilling to our enemies, we must not be angry with our fellow practitioners. We must be inseparable from the Bodhi fruit like lights and wicks.

We have obtained the human body, not only have the opportunity to be part of the ranks of those who keep precepts and keep treasures, or have entered the ranks of the four followers of Sakyamuni Buddha, so we must be very cautious.

As a monk or a follower of the Buddha, you must not harm the bodies and lives of low-level animals from above to above ants. The Buddha said that "healing them is not a monk", please practice it seriously.

Generally speaking, the permanent residents of the college should welcome and welcome new men, women, monks and lay Buddhists. We have always had this tradition before. This is both a human rule and a Buddhist Dharma.

In short, if you are a person who is specialized in altruistic and kind-hearted, good luck will also belong to him and wealth will also belong to him. What we call "good people" does not refer to people with good eloquence, nor does it refer to people with bravery, because there are also bad people among them.

In general, people with good hearts are good people, so it is very important to be kind and do good deeds in daily life. What does kind heart mean?

It means praying to the Three Jewels with faith, and wanting to make all sentient beings happy, just like I am happy and happy, thinking that all sentient beings have them. Look at whether you have such kindness in your continuum. Of course, good deeds are more important than this.
