Jing Si Aphorism PDF

Let us appreciate, be grateful,
and repay the love of our

parents.
The Teachings of Dharma Master Cheng Yen
To be filial is in fact the most

rewarding thing in life.
How can we repay the grace of our

parents? By appreciating our
parents feelings and expectations
and in turn cherishing ourselves and
living with self-respect.
When our parents lecture us, let us

be amiable and not resistant or
antagonistic.
Not making our parents worry is

what it means to be a good son or
daughter.
Two things should never wait: doing

good deeds and being good to our
parents.

Cherishing our life is the way to

repay our parents grace. Giving
of ourselves is the way to express
our gratitude.
Giving time to our parents is

about spending time with them
with joy, not merely out of a
sense of duty.
Be grateful to your parents and to

all sentient beings, every day. In
everything you do, never disappoint
them.
Having gratitude can help us

dissolve our inner afflictions
and waken our compassion.
Kind words are like pure lotus

flowers. Mean words are like
poisonous snakes.
If we work with a joyful heart, no

matter how tiring and demanding
the task is, we will be rewarded
with a sense of bliss and joy.
,
, .
Every achievement grows out

of the seed of determination.
Continue even when it is hard

to go on, release even when it
is hard to let go, endure even
when it is hard to bear; this is
how we build our character.
Let not criticism dampen our

motivation.
Appreciate a compliment and

face unkind words with
understanding.
With more gratitude, we will

have fewer misgivings.
When life is safe and smooth, we can

easily lose our direction. Yet even a
small setback or misfortune can
awaken our conscience, and nurture
the seeds of kindness.

Seize every opportunity to do

good, for once it passes, it is
lost; try as we may, it will be too
late.
How can we expect to

accomplish the big things if we
dont do the little things?
Let every day be filled with

hope by concretely working for
the good of society each and
every moment.
Because seeing virtue in others

is in itself a virtue, in
appreciating others, we in fact
dignify ourselves.
When we are irritated by others,

it is actually because we are still
lacking in graciousness.
Remain soft-spoken and

forgiving, even when reason is
on your side.
If we have a bad temper and a

sharp tongue, we cannot be
considered a good person even
if we have a good heart.
Be forgiving towards others,

be discreet in your speech.
Only those who respect

themselves have the courage to
be humble.
Be forgiving and less critical of

others, but be strict and
objective in examining ourselves.
Anger is punishing oneself for the

mistakes of others.
Do not ask for less responsibility

to be free and relaxed ask for
more strength.
Never lose courage. Never lose

faith. Nothing in this world is
impossible when you are
determined.
----
Do not underestimate yourself,

everyone has unlimited potential.
.
What is to be feared is not the

long distance to our goals but
rather, not moving forward even
one step.
A true leader leads with

sincerity and hard work, not just
competence and skill alone.
We need to overcome
difficulties, not be overcome by
them.
We start to slacken the minute

we find excuses for ourselves.
Be clear and complete when you

talk and listen. Do not pick one
sentence here, and one sentence
there; or you may by accident
intensely hurt someone.
With eyes that face forward,

human beings easily see the
faults of others but not their
own.
Take up good deeds and let go

of hard feelings. In helping
others to fulfill their goal, we
too gain.
Happiness is not about how

much we possess but how little
we bicker over trivialities.
The more we do, the more we

gain in blessings and wisdom.
So in doing less we lose out on
much.
Believe in yourself, but do not

be attached to your own point
of view.
The greater our generosity, the

greater our blessings.
To not take things in life so

seriously is not a negative, resigned
attitude, it is a happy and proactive
one. It does not mean giving up
hope; it is a genuine insight into the
real purpose of life.
Fear not the making of mistakes,

but rather, the reluctance to
correct ourselves. It is in fact
not that difficult for us to
change.
If we cannot influence other

people, just do what we
ourselves should do.
Learn to develop pure and

unconditional love; a love that has
no sense of gain or loss, that asks
for nothing in return. In this way we
can be free of worries.
A love with conditions attached

would never last. Only pure,
unconditional love will last
forever.
Love is just like a cup of tea;

when properly mixed, it has a
wonderful light aroma. If it is
too strong, it will be too bitter to
drink.
Love is not about asking of the

other person but about giving of
ourselves unconditionally so that
we can help things become
perfect and complete.
The ability to love is a blessing.

The ability to eliminate
afflictions is wisdom.
Forgive those who unintentionally

hurt us. Do not be someone who
is easily hurt by others.
Forgiving others is a virtue, but by

always forgiving ourselves, we lost
virtue.
To forgive others is in fact

being kind to ourselves.
Giving with an expectation for

return brings misery.
In this world, there is no one I

do not love, no one I do not
trust, and no one I cannot
forgive.
Giving is not the privilege of

the rich, it is the privilege of
the sincere.
Dont compete to be the most

intimidating; compete to be the
most loving.
To a beautiful heart, everything

appears beautiful and pleasing.
The more we give, the more we

accomplish.
.
Nothing is impossible if you

believe it is achievable.
.
Nothing is impossible with

confidence, perseverance, and
courage.
If we are easily distracted and

do not pay full attention to the
task at hand, it will be difficult
to accomplish anything.
, .
Practice mindfulness in your

daily life. A mind free of
wandering thoughts develops
inner strength.
Practice mindfulness in your

daily life. A mind free of
wandering thoughts develops
inner strength.
