◆「我們所做的任何事，都會影響這個世界和其它世界的眾生。每個宗教都告訴我們：萬物同一體，就像我們的身體有很多部分，假如手受傷了，也會影響整個身體。正因為宇宙的本體如此龐大，眾生置身其中卻無法了解、看不見整個宇宙，所以我們也許不相信我們的舉動會影響到其他眾生。如果我們開了天眼、智慧眼，我們便知道自己的確和所有眾生有關聯，那時我們會對自己的行為非常小心謹慎。」

"Everything we do affects everyone in this world and the next. Every religion mentions to us that all things; all beings are one in essence. Just like our body has many parts. If our hands hurt, it affects our whole body also. Just because the universal body is so great, and we the many beings in this great body cannot understand, cannot see the whole universal body, so we may not believe that our actions concern any other beings. Should we develop the kind of Celestial Eye, the Wisdom Eye, we would see this for ourselves that we are indeed connected with all beings; and then we would be very careful about what we do."
