Sayings of the Buddha 佛语名言
67) Self mastered One Is The Real Conqueror
Better is it truly to conquer oneself than to conquer others.
Neither a god, nor an ‘angel’, nor Mara, nor Brahma could turn into defeat the victory of a person such as this who is self mastered and ever refrained in conduct.
克己者乃真正战胜者
能克制自己，过於胜他人。
若有克己者，常行自节制。
天神音乐神，魔王并梵天，
皆遭於败北，不能胜彼人。
[5/19, 5:46 AM] Bhante Ariya Dassana: Sayings of the Buddha 佛语名言。

Oneself is one’s own protector (refuge);
what other protector (refuge) can there be?

他人何可依？
自己善调御，
证难得所依。

69) You Are Responsible For Your Own Purity And Impurity
By oneself indeed is evil done and by oneself is one defiled.
By oneself is evil left undone and by oneself indeed is one purified.
Purity and impurity depend on oneself.
No one can purify another.

恶实由己作，
污染亦由已;

净不净由己，
他何能净他?

So the world (i.e. Samsara, the cycle of existence and continuity) is not prolonged.

莫从卑劣法。
莫住於放逸。
莫随於邪见。
莫增长世俗。

71) The Teaching Of The Buddha
To speak no ill,
to do no harm,

this is the Teaching of the Buddhas.
佛陀所教
不诽与不害，
严持於戒律，
饮食知节量，
远处而独居，
勤修增上定，
是为诸佛教。

犯罪者亦尔，自业导恶趣。

75) Easy To See The Fault Of Others
The fault of others is easily seen;
but one’s own is hard to see.
Like chaff one winnows other’s faults;
but one’s own one conceals as a crafty fowler disguises himself.
他人的过失易见
他人的过失易见，自己的过失难见。
散布他人的过失，如播扬糠秕，
隐伏自己的 过失，如狡猾的赌徒隐匿作弊的骰子。
[5/27, 6:31 AM] Bhante Ariya Dassana: Sayings of the Buddha 佛语名言。

日照昼兮月明夜，
刹帝利武装辉耀，
婆罗门禅定光明，
佛陀光普照昼夜。

81) Impurities Can Be Removed
By degrees little by little,
from moment to moment a wise man removes his own impurities,
as a goldsmith removes the dross of gold.
垢秽可消除
刹那刹那间，
智者分分除，
渐拂自垢秽，
如治工锻金。
[6/2, 6:11 AM] Bhante Ariya Dassana: Sayings of the Buddha 佛语名言。
82) Who is the real sage?
Not by silence does one become a sage (muni) if one be foolish and untaught.
But the wise man who as if holding a pair of scales,
takes what is good and leaves out what is evil, is indeed a sage.
For that reason he is a sage. He who understands both sides in this world is called a sage.
真正的牟尼
愚昧无知者，不以漠然故， 而名为牟尼。
智者如权衡， 舍恶取其善，乃得为牟尼。
彼知於两界，故称为牟尼。
[6/3, 6:14 AM] Bhante Ariya Dassana: Sayings of the Buddha 佛语名言。
83) The best method to end suffering
Of paths the Noble Eightfold Path is the best;
Of truths the Four Words (Noble Truths);
Detachments is the best of states
and of bipeds the Seeing One (the Man of Vision).
This is the only Way.
There is no other for the purification of Vision.
Follow this Way: this is the bewilderment of Mara (Evil).
Following this Way you shall make an end of suffering.
This verily is the Way declared by me when I had learnt to remove the arrow (of suffering).
灭苦的最佳方法
八支道中胜，四句谛中胜，
离欲法中胜，具眼两足胜。
实为此一道，无余知见净。

汝顺此道行，使汝苦灭尽。
知我所说道，得除去荆棘。
[6/4, 6:16 AM] Bhante Ariya Dassana: Sayings of the Buddha 佛语名言。
84) Craving must be removed
As a tree cut down sprouts forth again if its roots remain uninjured and strong,

this suffering arises again and again.

爱欲不断根，苦生亦复尔。

如此的人无恶不作。
[6/8, 5:53 AM] Bhante Ariya Dassana: Sayings of the Buddha 佛语名言。
88) Act Accordingly
Though much he recites the Sacred Texts but acts not accordingly,
that heedless man is like a cowherd who courts others’ kine;
he has no share in the blessings of a recluse.
Though little he recites the Sacred Texts but acts in accordance with the Teachings,
and forsaking lust, hatred, and ignorance,
truly knowing, with mind totally freed,
clinging for naught here and hereafter,
he shares the blessings of a recluse.
