As Buddhist practitioners, we transform our temperament.
Those who practise well become more mature, and more dignified. Men and women act and appear as they are supposed to.
Their energy and vitality appear distinct from those who don’t cultivate the mind. The wise can always remain calm. The wise always possess the golden key to their mind.
When suffering pain in the left heart chamber, the golden key opens up the right to divert the afflictions and sufferings of the left. And when suffering pain and discomfort in the right heart chamber, the golden key can open the left to share the pain evenly. This is how wisdom is transformed.
学佛人都在转变自己的气质。
修得好的人
会越来越稳重、越来越庄严，
女人像女人，男人像男人，
整个人的精气神
就跟没修心的人不一样。
一个有智慧的人，
能静得下来；
一个有智慧的人，
能够时刻在心里拥有一把金钥匙。
这把金钥匙
就是让你在左心室痛苦的时候，
打开你的右心室，
来分散左心室的烦恼和痛苦。
当你在右心室感到
胸闷、难受的时候，
用这把金钥匙打开你的左心室，
来分担右心室给你带来的难过。
这就是智慧的转换。
