The Spirit of a Female Knight 「俠女」隨想
Yesterday while taking a bus to town, I suddenly felt that my hands were too "idle". They are usually very busy tying on the keyboard when I am home or in the office. So I played around with an app on my cell phone and posted the "product"-the above photo of me- onto the Facebook.
昨天坐公交車進城,途中雖然聽著手機中的錄音文件,兩手仍然是難得地「閑」(不出門時,兩只手大部分都在鍵盤上忙活著)。因爲不太習慣這閑,就給自己找了點「活兒」幹,在手機上P了這張照片貼到臉書上。
I didn't expect that this photo would draw so much attention. Numerous friends left comments, many of them saying that I looked like a "female knight" in ancient times. One friend posted another photo and left this comment:
沒想到,這張照片在朋友中引起了熱烈的反響,很多人說這看著像「俠女」,還有個朋友留言留圖說:
"Words inside The Picture
The Female Knight is in a dilemma
If her heart is not still, she cannot cultivate Buddhahood
If her heart is not moved, how can she fight the injustice in the world?"
「畫中話
俠女兩難之地:
心不靜,難以修佛;
心不動,難以平天下不義!」
I pondered on these comments; and realized that I do have the spirit of a "female knight". Since my childhood, I had always wanted to protect the vulnerable around me.
After practicing Falun Dafa, I gained a deeper understanding of the principle that in this world, every result has a cause whilst every action will bring about a consequence. As a result, I was able to maintain a calm mind without feeling unbalanced or wronged that easily.
我細想想,覺得自己是好像是天生有份「俠女」心腸,路見不平就好強出個頭之類的。但是……修煉法輪大法之後,對世間因緣已然另有見地,「俠」不「俠」的,已經不再縈懷。
However, as of today, if I still have the heart to fight for others, how can I deal with the dilemma mentioned by that friend?
那麼,真要做「俠女」的話,是否會處於「心不靜,難以修佛;心不動,難以平天下不義」的「兩難之地」呢?
Instantly, and without any difficulties, I came up with two replies:
我又細想想,好像也沒有,因而答覆友人曰:
Reply 1: "The Female Knight has obtained a great Way, and can stay unmoved or act swiftly at will."
之一:「侠女已得妙法门,动静皆如吾意。」
Rely 2:
"To stay still or act swiftly
It all happens naturally
With everything encompassed and perfectly harmonized
She can switch between staying still and acting swiftly
With just an instant thought"
之二:
「動靜隨機 圓轉如意
亦動亦靜 兩相得宜」
網友We-e Liao詩曰:
