No Ajahn Chah《164》

《164》認為我們比他人好是不對的,認為我們與他人是平等的,也不對,認為我們比他人差,也不對。如果我們認為我們比別人好,驕慢心就會生起;如果我們認為我們與別人是平等的,我們會在應當的時間里忘失尊重和謙虛。如果我們認為我們比別人差,就會沮喪,並認為我們不如人,或是不好的徵兆下出生的。將這一切都放下吧!

Seeing that we are better than others is not right. Seeing that we are equal to others is not right. Seeing that we are inferior to others is not right. If we think that we』re better than others, pride arises. If we think that we are equal to others, we fail to show respect and humility at the proper times. If we think that we are inferior to others, we get depressed thinking about it and try to blame our inferiority on having been born under a bad sign, and so on. Just let all of that go!
