「布施者富貴」
Generosity invites wealth!
.
一般人都「捨不得」，無論你多麼相信佛陀。佛說「捨去吧，四大皆空」，你能捨嗎？一般放不下。拿你的錢財去供養修行人、或者布施給更加貧苦的人，你捨得嗎？你有一千萬你能拿出兩萬到十萬塊錢，你都覺得自己是一個了不起的大菩薩了。
.
儘管我們理解這些道理，但應用的時候還會捨不得。也正因為一個捨不得，所以也就得不到生命中那些我們所說的不可思議的智慧、能力、財富、榮耀等等。所以我們還需要從捨得入手。

Generosity invites wealth!
Generally, people are less incline toward giving, regardless of their faith in the Buddha. As the Buddha said, “Learn to let go, as all the four elements (earth, water, fire, air) are empty and illusory. Can you do it? The majority will struggle. Even when the material possessions are for the benefits of faith practitioners or for the needy, are you willing to give? If you have 10 million dollars, and give away twenty to a hundred thousand dollars, you would consider yourself a great Bodhisattva.
Although we understand these teachings, when it comes to practice, there is the reluctance to give. It is this reluctance that is obscuring us from the miraculous blessings of life – wisdom, ability, wealth, glory and so on. Thus, we would need to start from the willingness to give.
