《002》 我们的生和死是同一件事,不能有此而无彼。可笑的是,面对死亡,人们是如何的伤心悲痛,对于出生却是何等欢欣快乐,这是愚痴的。我认为,如果你真的要哭,最好是在一个人出生的时候哭,为根源而哭,因为,如果没有生,就不会有死,这点你能瞭解吗?
Our birth and death are just one thing. You can’t have one without the other. It’s a little funny to see how at a death people are so tearful and sad, and at a birth how happy and delighted. It’s delusion. I think that if you really want to cry, then it would be better to do so when someone’s born. Cry at the root, for if there were no birth, there would be no death. Can you understand this?
