网友:法师,请问怎么样才能够变得有智慧,破除烦恼,明心见性?为什么总是一点小事就会让自己心生烦恼?智慧也跟福报有关系吗?具体要怎么做?谢谢您! 

学诚法师:福能养慧,多培福报。亲近善知识,研阅大乘经典,闻思佛法,法随法行。 

Q: Master, how can I become wise so that I can conquer afflictions and attain enlightenment? Why am I always distressed even by some trifles? Is wisdom related to merit? What should I do specifically? Thank you so much!

A: Merit can nurture wisdom, so try to accumulate more merits. Rely on excellent teachers, read Mahayana scriptures, study and contemplate the Dharma, and cultivate a practice that conforms with the teachings.

网友:学诚法师,一直听到有法师说开智慧,搞到最后自己还是没有明白所谓的“开智慧”到底是什么。您怎么看呢?开智慧有何好处? 

学诚法师:智慧就是懂得如何抉择。有智慧,就有自在。 

Q: Ven. Master Xuecheng, I often hear some Dharma masters speak on generating wisdom, but I still cannot figure out what it means. What’s your opinion? What is the benefit of generating wisdom?

A: Wisdom is knowing how to make the right decision. With wisdom comes a sense of being carefree.

网友:法师你好!没有选择就没有烦恼,请问法师您是如何看待选择的呢? 

学诚法师:烦恼不是来源于选择,而是因为缺乏智慧。看不清楚岔路的方向,是因为高度不够。

Q: Hello, Master. No choice, no distress. What do you think about choices?

A: Afflictions are not caused by choices; they arise for lack of wisdom. Not being able to see where the road leads is because you are not standing high enough to see afar.

网友:请问法师,如何能提高智慧呢? 

学诚法师:凡事为自己考虑,只能生出机巧;放下自我私利,为更多人谋福利时,才能生出智慧。心量越大,智慧越深。 

Q: Master, how do I gain more wisdom?

A: Self-centric orientation will only lead to opportunistic practice. By giving up selfishness to benefit more people, wisdom will arise in your heart. The broader your mind is, the deeper the wisdom will be.

网友:什么是聪明,什么是智慧呢?它们的区别在哪里?请法师指点! 

学诚法师:聪明是反应机敏,智慧是懂得抉择。小聪明一时得利,大智慧获益长远。 

Q: What is intelligence, and what is wisdom? What is their difference? Master, could you please give me your advice?

A: Intelligence means being alert and prompt in response, whereas wisdom means clearly knowing how to make the right decision. Pretty trick makes temporary profits, while great wisdom gains long-term benefits.
