There is no possibility of happiness

and peace while someone is under the

leadership of a very negative person.

Therefore, reflect upon the fact that you

are under the rule of ignorance;

ignorance is like a despotic king, and

anger and attachment are like his

ministers. We live under the tyranny

and influence of ignorance, the

self-grasping attitude, and also the

self-cherishing attitude – factors that

all the buddhas and bodhisattvas treat

as real enemies.

在一個非常負面的人的帶領下,

沒有快樂與平靜的可能性.

所以, 仔細思考這個事實

–你被 “無知” 統轄著;

“無知” 像個專橫的君王,

而憤怒與貪愛是他的部長大人.

我們活在無知的影響與橫行之下,

自以為是的態度, 以及自憐自艾的態度 –

都是佛與菩薩們視為真正敵人的要素.
