《做世间的工作或者家务事》是资粮吗?为什么应该认真去做?

我有我的善法欲,我有我的理念,所以我愿意去做。我们后面去拔草,乃至于去打扫厕所,我觉得必须要做积聚资粮,我就很认真地去做。

法师引导:
我们做世间的工作或者是家务事,虽然它跟三宝没有直接的关系,但是,只要安立正确的话就是资粮。

我们在工作上面对各式各样人和境,透过这些境可以历事练心,为了要完成工作是要提起很强的意志力去克服各式各样的困难,这就是意志力的一种磨练,我们都可以藉着它来净罪集资,包括在家里也是一样。

那我们是马马虎虎还是认认真真的去做呢?

因为我们知道怎么做取舍所以会认真的去做。它的差别是在于三宝是福田,比世间的田或是家里的田, 相对之下,福田是最殊胜的,只要裡面种一点点,它能够得到很大的收获。

I appreciate Venerable’s advice very much.

I usually encounter this conflict. Trying to push away or quickly and haphazardly complete my commitment to work or to my family so that I can have more time to do by Buddhist studies.

Hearing Venerable’s advice, I know that if I establish a positive intent behind every work or task that I do, I can still be doing my Buddhist practice - that of training my mind.

From our abbot’s series of discourses recently, I learned that the most powerful intention is the spirit of enlightenment. If we act on bodhicitta, all that we think and do (including houseworks) are merits to attain Buddhahood.
