醒世歌

憨山大師醒世歌簡釋
作者：梁國雄
原載於2002年8月《普明快訊》

红尘白浪两茫茫，忍辱柔和是妙方，到处随缘延岁月，终身安分度时光。
休将自己心田昧，莫把他人过失扬，谨慎应酬无懊恼，耐烦作事好商量。

从来硬弩弦先断，每见钢刀口易伤，惹祸只因闲口舌，招愆多为狠心肠。
是非不必争人我，彼此何须论短长，世事由来多缺陷，幻躯焉得免无常。

吃些亏处原无碍，退让三分也不妨，春日才看杨柳绿，秋风又见菊花黄。
荣华终是三更梦，富贵还同九月霜，老病死生谁替得，酸甜苦辣自承当。

人从巧计夸伶俐，天自从容定主张，谗曲贪嗔堕地狱，公平正直即天堂。
麝因香重身先死，蚕为丝多命早亡，一剂养神平胃散，两种和气二陈汤。

生前枉费心千万，死后空留手一双，悲欢离合朝朝闹，寿夭穷通日日忙。
休得争强来斗胜，百年浑是戏文场，顷刻一声锣鼓歇，不知何处是家乡。


１        紅塵白浪兩茫茫　忍辱柔和是妙方　到處隨緣延歲月　終身安分度時光

世事起落無常，變化多端，就像鬧市飛揚的塵埃，又像互相衝擊、起伏不停的海洋 波浪，那樣模糊無際，不可測度。體諒忍讓，柔順和諧，才是處世聰明靈巧的方法 啊！無論身處何地，不可強求，宜隨順因緣，就當時情況，隨時制宜；一輩子也要 滿足地、安分守己地過日子。

２        休將自己心田昧　莫把他人過失揚　謹慎應酬無懊惱　耐煩作事好商量

不可隱瞞良心，自知不好，仍繼續做著那些邪惡、害己害人的事情。所謂己所不欲， 勿施於人，對於別人的過失，不可到處張揚啊！與人交往應對，宜小心謹慎，切忌 出口傷人，或因言語衝突而起煩惱；有困難或爭議時，動氣無益，宜耐心解決，或 找機會好好溝通、商量。

３        從來硬弩弦先斷　每見剛刀口易傷　惹禍只因閒口舌　招愆多為狠心腸

自古以來，常見強硬的弓弩，其弦線很快折斷，鋒利堅強的鋼刀，其刀口亦易損傷。 飛來橫禍，往往由閒話開始，繼起爭執；罪禍臨身，皆因心狠手辣，害人不淺。

４        是非不必爭人我　彼此何須論短長　世事由來多缺陷　幻軀焉得免無常

其實，何必時常強分你非我是、我長你短呢？世間從來就沒有完美無缺的事物，緣 起如幻、無實自性的軀體，又怎可永存不朽呢？

５        喫些虧處原無礙　退讓三分也不妨　春日纔看楊柳綠　秋風又見菊花黃

吃點虧，讓幾步，於己實在損失不大，不妨接受包容；時移世易，盛衰很快轉移， 試看春天柔美的綠柳景色，很快就被秋天怡人的黃菊所替代了。

６        榮華終是三更夢　富貴還同九月霜　老病死生誰替得　酸甜苦辣自承當

世人只顧追求身外的榮華富貴，忽略了自身的處境。其實，身外的榮華富貴，如夜 中夢、如夏月霜，轉瞬消逝，但自身的生老病死苦，除了自己，有誰可以替代呢？

７        人從巧計誇伶俐　天自從容定主張　諂曲貪瞋墮地獄　公平正直即天堂

自恃聰明的人，苦心積慮所經營的權謀，最後結果，皆難逃自然的因果定理：阿諛 奉承，為私利私憤，作惡多端的，必得惡報，守正不阿，行善積德的，必有善報。

８        麝因香重身先死　蠶為絲多命早亡　一劑養神平胃散　兩鍾和氣二陳湯

麝有貴重的香，蠶有貴重的絲，因而命短，故此，無須過分追求與擁有，閒時不妨 調養精神，清心寡欲，減少一點好勝鬥爭的心態吧。

９        生前枉費心千萬　死後空持手一雙　悲歡離合朝朝鬧　富貴窮通日日忙

世人少悟，不知生前營謀所得，死後只能空手而往；大多數還未覺悟，仍在繼續營 謀，天天鬧著悲歡離合，日日忙著富貴窮通的事情。

１０        休得爭強來鬥勝　百年渾是戲文場　頃刻一聲鑼鼓歇　不知何處是家鄉

請盡快停止爭強好勝吧！人生百年，就像做戲一場，不久鑼鼓聲竭，散場閉幕， 又不知隨業流轉至何方所了。

Defrosting...

Before I sleep, I thought I should also record down this episode of reheating of a heart that has turned cold over the years.... Lol

Yesterday marked my 29th year in existence...... I have forgotten how long ago is it that I have removed all indications of that date anywhere except on job application forms and other official documents....

Yet to my surprise, memories of it still exist......... I thank all for the effort and well wishes..... I am grateful. =)

Rebooting...

It has been a while ....

Much have happened over these few months......... It has been 7 (almost 8) months since I left EY and join another organization.

I still miss the old days sometimes.....

But I am very grateful to have a special group of friends (sc,cj,pr,hh,cjy) who have showed me great support and timely companionship in this difficult transition period.

Over these few months, I keep having the view that I have entered into a treacherous world where dark creatures dwell.... And so ......I became more and more miserable as days went by..........my motivation level drops and I seem to have lost passion for everything...... repeating each day in a zombie liked manner

Events and circumstances finally led me to reflect on what is going on with my life and what has gone wrong......

I finally realized that the root of the problem lies not in my new environment but in my own views. I was too arrogant and disdainful of the new elements.......I was too stubborn to change.......and most importantly, I lacked new worthy goals to pursue.

Having now gained clarity of the situation, a new game plan is drawn up for breakthrough and progress

-Specific goals worthy of pursuit set
-An open and relax mind shall be cultivated, humility must be restored, and patience will be practiced
-Make it a habit to think only positive thoughts and focus only on positivity


What I focus on determines my reality. 


Enough ramblings for now....... Yawnzzz.....
