In the case of a small child, the child
has to grow up into a well-built young
man but the growth takes place with
the passage of time. It cannot happen
overnight. Likewise the transformation
of mind will also take time. Nowadays
in many places, by using certain
injection, pigs, cows and birds
suddenly grow. Then they are killed
and consumed. This negative practice
also has an effect on human beings. So,
when we talk of spiritual practice, we
cannot inject certain qualities and
suddenly transform the mind.
以一個小孩為例,
孩子長成一個結實壯碩的年輕人,
成長過程必須花時間.
無法在一夕間發生.
同樣的, 心靈的轉變也須花時間.
當今許多地方, 會用某些注射劑,
讓豬, 牛, 家禽快速成長.
然後屠宰以供食用.
這種負面的手段對人類也會產生負面作用.
所以, 當提到性靈修持時,
我們也不能以為注入某些特質,
就能讓心靈即時轉化.
