When other insult, rebuke and speak

unpleasant words to us, although an

intolerable pain arises like a thorn at

the heart, if we comprehend the

teachings then we can recognize the

essenceless nature of these words which

resemble an echo. So, just as when an

inanimate object is scolded, we will

experience not the slightest

mental turmoil.

當他人侮辱, 斥責我們或

對我們說些讓人不悅的話語時,

即使猶如芒刺在心帶來難忍的痛,

但若我們能謹記教誨, 就能認出

這些字句如回音般無意義的本質.

所以, 如同一個沒有生命的物件被叱責,

我們可以體驗到心靈不受任何輕微擾動的狀態.
