修行想要成道、證果,必須因緣具足。雖然人人都有佛性,但想要成道、成佛,還是必須靠自己發心,這就是因。除了自己要有成佛的心願以外,還要具足外緣,要親近大善知識,建立正知正見,才不會走錯路、走遠路。
To realize the Way and attain buddhahood, causes and conditions must come together. Even though every one of us has buddha nature, realizing the Way and attaining buddhahood requires our sincere determination, for this is the cause. In addition to our aspiration for attaining buddhahood, conditions must be timely, and we need to learn from a teacher of great knowledge and establish right views. In this way, we will not be misled or sidetracked from the path.
