黑白業感苦樂果 — 各別應受勤止作 別於無始所集罪 四力對治求加持

南無

萬善根本從師出

一切時處普攝護

殷重敬信為意樂

八難既離十圓滿

死仇決定終須到

無始所集不善業

能除眾怖作依怙

此生勤修白業因

有海飄流不自由

業惑增上成流轉

為脫有苦依三學

但求解脫雖可得

恩怨中庸今雖現

生死流轉無其始

今生愛我母為最

若知有恩猶捨棄

有恩母等乏安樂

母等眾生苦所逼

一切世間諸有情

任運成辦自他利

自他於苦皆不欲

愛自即成眾苦因

以我善樂諸因果

為令發心長不退

成就利他發弘誓

身命資具三世善

別解脫等諸律儀

人及非人四大種

既為利他求菩提

念知堅固除沉掉

以分別智觀法性

由施攝眾成眷屬

以修共道成法器

所受真言諸密戒

密部肝心二次第

示茲妙道善知識

願我生生遇明師

祈求加持

The one who has conquered himself is a far greater hero than he who has defeated a thousand times a thousand men.

Ethel Merman would stay with a show for years and tour with it. So would Mary Martin, the great stars. They recognized the value of that success and nurtured it. Now, you come from Hollywood, you play 12 weeks and go away. I don't think that's the best policy.

You wake up one day and suddenly realize that your youth is behind you, even though you're still young at heart.

I don't care what people think of me as a person, but I do care what people think of my work, and whether I'm investing enough into it.

The force we use on ourselves, to prevent ourselves from loving, is often more cruel than the severest treatment at the hands of one loved.

In a situation where many national leaders do the same thing and look out for national interests, and with an issue like global warming, you're likely to get no solution, so I think you have to have some kind of ethical trump on some of those issues.

The power of the harasser, the abuser, the rapist depends above all on the silence of women.

You have to realize that up until about 1959, Africa was dominated by the colonial powers. And by the colonial powers of Europe having complete control over Africa, they projected Africa always in a negative light - jungles, savages, cannibals, nothing civilized.

All excellence involves discipline and tenacity of purpose.
