《054》善行带来善果,恶行带来恶果,不要期待天神来帮助你,或天使和护法来保护你,或黄道吉日的协助。这些都不是真的,不要去相信它们。如果你相信它们的话,你就会痛苦。你将永远在期待好日子、好月份、好年头、天使或护法神,如此一来,你只会受苦而已。往你的行为和言语里看,往自己的「业」裡看。为善,会带来善;为恶,就会带来恶。
Good actions bring good results; bad actions bring bad results. Don’t expect the gods to do things for you, or the angels and guardian deities to protect you, or the auspicious days to help you. These things aren’t true. Don’t believe in them. If you believe in them, you will suffer. You will always be waiting for the right day, the right month, the right year, the angels, or the guardian deities. You’ll only suffer that way. Look into your own actions and speech, into your own kamma. Doing good, you inherit goodness, doing bad you inherit badness.
