The heart is like a mirror, reflecting the evil of the world.
If all we see is nothing but vice and strife, then eventually we will end up turning to evil.
Only when our hearts reflect all the good in the world will our hearts be filled with kindness.
Only when our hearts reflect nothing will we be able to see the emptiness of the five aggregates.
心像一面鏡子,照見人間的惡,
看到的都是惡形惡狀、惡是非,
久而久之心會成為惡人;
希望我們照見的是人間的一切善,
心中就會擁有一切善良的東西;
如果心能不照見任何事物,
才是照見五蘊皆空。
