2022 New Year’s Greeting from Venerable Dayi Shi

達義大和尚新春寄語

The past year has been an unprecedented one
過去的一年,是一個不平常的一年,

while we navigate through the pandemic.
疫情不僅僅打亂了我們正常的生活

These disruptions to our daily lives have brought for the anxiety and unease to many.
也讓不少人感受到內心的不安與惶恐,

adversity will strengthen us in our life journey.
人生的道路因為有坎坷,才能變得堅強

By converting our experiences during hardship into positive energy,
要學會在逆境中把經歷過的一切變成能量

this can shed light into our future pathway.
轉化光明,方能照亮未來的道路。


Instead of striving for the capacity to change the world,
人生要得到的不是呼風喚雨的能力,

let us start with taming our attitude to face the ups and downs in life.
而是淡看風雲的胸懷。

With a macro perspective, we can broaden our vision.
站得高,才能看得遠,

By minimizing our cravings, we can learn to let go of grasps.
看得淡,才能放得下。

Perceive all phenomena with wisdom,
如果懷著一顆睿智的心胸去面對一切,

a seemingly congested world can become infinitely open,
再擁擠的世界也會變得無限寬廣,

while every single step of our life journey can be illuminated with sunshine.
再平凡的人生也會充滿陽光!

Wish everyone a healthy and happy NewYear,
最後祝願大家新年快樂,

filled with auspiciousness from dawn to dust!
二六吉祥!
