18/12/2021 Daily Enlightenment - 日日觉

There are those who study only words and speech, who may seem to be enlightened when they open their mouths to speak. In reality, however, when faced with everyday situations, they become so flustered that they do not know what to do. This shows the difference between the nature of words and the nature of actions.

一些只学习佛教文字和言语的人，当他们开口说话时，给人感觉似乎开悟了。 然而，当他们真正面对日常情况时，却变得如此慌乱，以至于不知道该怎么办。 这显示了言语和行为本质之间的不同。
