           佛光山  星雲法師  著作 Fo Guang Shan      Hsing Yun

慈悲偉大的佛陀!請您救苦救難,

Oh great ,compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva !

慈悲地垂聽弟子的發露懺悔:

Please listen compassionately to your  disciple's  confession and  repentance  :

我自懂事以來,
Since I  have come to know human affairs ,

總覺得生命不很安穩;
I always  feel that  life is  not  peaceful ;

我在世間生活,
I often  feel  that  circumstances are not agreeable;

常感到事情不很適意;

我對親朋好友, Towards relatives and good  friends ,
缺乏照顧幫忙;I  am  not considerate or helpful  enough ;

我對社會大眾,Towards society  and  the  masses,
不能周遍圓融。I  lack skillful  means  to  bring  hormony  to  all people


慈悲偉大的觀世音菩薩!
Oh great , compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva !

每當我仰望您的慈容時,
Whenever I  look up at  your compassionate image ,

我的心靈才感到清涼自在;
My mind indeed feels  pure  and  at  ease ;

每當我稱念您的聖號時,
Whenever I chant  your name,
我的精神才得到解脫舒暢。
My spirit indeed feels comfortable , and I myself feel free from worldly worries ,

面對聖潔的您,我感到好慚愧啊!
Facing  you  who are dignified and immaculate ,  I feel  so  ashamed !

  
和您的遍灑甘露,
In comparison to your sprinkling sweet dew all over 

普利人天比起來,
To universally benefit humans and devas :

您如海洋,我似井水;
You are like an ocean ; I am like well water

您如日月,我似螢光;
You are like the sun and the moon; I  am  like a firefly ;

您如山岳,我似丘陵;
You are like mountains ; I am like a mole hill ;

您如獅王,我似小鼠。
You are like a lion king ; I am  like a small mouse


慈悲偉大的觀世音菩薩!
Oh great , compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva !

您累劫勤苦,還要倒駕慈航;
Over many kalpas, you have worked diligently in defiance of hardships ,and still want to return to the world to liberate all sentient beings .

您難行能行,還要尋聲救苦。
You have done what is difficult for people to do  , and still want to follow the world's cries to relieve its suffering .

我何人也? Who am I ?
我何不能!Why can't I  do the same ?


慈悲偉大的觀世音菩薩!
 Oh great ,compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva !  

 
祈求您以弘誓攝我,
I pray to you  to guide me with your universal vows . 

 
祈求您以悲願度我。
I pray to you to enlighten me with your compassionate vows .

讓我能擁有您的無畏圓通,
May I have your fearless penetration of the nature of all things through wisdom :

我若向惡人,惡人自感化;
If I face people of vices , they will be transformed ;
       
我若向暴徒,瞋怒自息滅;
If I face villains , their anger will be cooled .

   
我若向魔外,邪心自調伏;
If  I   face evil, the evil mind will be brought under control .

   
我若向愚癡,當得大智慧。
If I face the ignorant , they will obtain great wisdom .


慈悲偉大的觀世音菩薩!
Oh great ,compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva !

祈求您以慈雲覆我,
I pray to you to shelter me in  your compassionate cloud ;

我要學習您利濟群生的精神,
I would like to learn your spirit of benefiting and relieving all beings :

用慈眼觀察眾生的需求,
To observe the needs of all beings through compassionate  eyes;

用耳朵傾聽眾生的痛苦,
To listen to the suffering of all beings  with attentive ears ;

用美言安慰眾生的煩憂,
To comfort the vexations and anxiety of all beingswith wonderful words ;

  
 
用雙手撫平眾生的創傷。
To soothe the wounds of all beings with both hands .


慈悲偉大的觀世音菩薩!
Oh great compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva !

祈求您以智光照我,
I pray to you to illuminate us with your light of wisdom :

我要用喜捨攝取眾生,
I will assist all beings through joyous beings ;

我要用同事化導頑強,
I will convert and guide the stubborn into the Truth by cooperating with and adapting to them ;

我要用利行給人方便,
I will provide people with convenience through beneficial conduct ;

我要用愛語助人歡喜。
I will help people to be happy through loving words .

慈悲偉大的觀世音菩薩!
Oh great compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva !

我要以您的解脫自在為榜樣,I would like to take your liberation and ease as a model !


從今以後,From now on :
我要遠離顛倒妄想,
I will distance myself from contray and delusive ideas

觀人自在;To contemplate the ease of the individual ;

我要遠離分別臆測,
I will distance myself from discrimination and personal conjecture

觀境自在;To contemplate the ease of circumstances

我要遠離執著纏縛,
I will distance myself from attachment and entanglement

觀事自在;To contemplate the ease of affairs ;

我要遠離五欲塵勞,I will distance myselffrom five desires and the trouble of the world
觀心自在。To contemplate the ease of the mind .
