1-2-3. LUCKY DAYS幸運日

We are human beings with a superior mind, we don’t have to be afraid of ghosts or anything whatsoever, we don’t have to run and find any refuge because self is the refuge of self, who else could be a refuge ?’. Angels can’t be a refuge, auspicious timing can’t be a refuge.

我們是擁有優越心智能力的人類，不需要害怕鬼神或任何其它東西；也不需要到處去尋求庇護，因為自己才是自己的庇護，除了自己，還有誰可以作庇護呢」？天神不能作為庇護，吉時也不能作為庇護。

Suppose the train leaves at 08.00, but the fortuneteller says that 8 O’clock is not auspicious, we’ll break our legs going at that time, we should go at 08.20 in order to have luck. If we follow his advice we’ll just miss the train ! So don’t be interested in luck and auspiciousness, what is important is to catch the train but while we’re going we must be careful ; don’t collide with anything. To catch the train in safety is what is auspicious ; no need for a fortuneteller.

假設有一班火車預定早上八點要開，但算命的說八點不吉利，那個時候出門會摔斷腿，要好運的話就得在8點20分出發。如果我們聽他的話，那就會錯過那班火車了！所以，不要迷執所謂的好運或吉利，真正重要的是——去趕上那班火車，不過，我們一路上要小心，不要去撞上任何東西。安全地趕上火車就是真正的吉利，而這個根本不需要算命師！

If you want to be rich, you must know how to buy and sell, you must be economic, be polite. If you don’t speak pleasingly, even if you sell cheap, you won’t have buyers. This is a way of selling and buying which is more trustworthy than auspiciousness.

如果你想變得富有，你必須知道怎麼做買賣、必須有利可圖、還得待客有禮；如果你講話不討人歡喜，即使你賣得很便宜也不會有顧客上門。這就是想要有錢的買賣之道，這比好運或吉利更實在可靠。
