Studying dharma should focus on practicing the heart. The people who like listening and contemplation think that listening and the reflection are the most important, while the people who like meditation believe that meditation is the most important. In fact, incorporating dharma into the heart is the most important. Without the incorporation of dharma into the heart, the practice of thinking and contemplation are only on paper and superficial, and we should carefully avoid being a dharma sophisticate; also without the incorporation of into the heart, even though we chant thousands of sutras and treatises every day, as well as chant mantras and meditate without eating and drinking, we only strengthen our greed, hatred and ignorance.
學佛以修心為要。喜歡聞思的人認為聞思最重要,喜歡實修的人認為實修最重要,其實法融於心才是最重要的。法不入心,聞思只能是文字上的、表面上的,小心成為法油子;法不入心,每天念誦千經萬論,不吃不喝的念咒打坐,也只是在強化自己的貪嗔癡而已。
