Further Reflections<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

96:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Even if we practise well
a little of the Dharma,
our lives will be better –
much more if we practise
more of the Dharma well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

97:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

If our Dharma-learning
is not for serious practice,
what is it for – ‘entertainment’?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To truly enjoy the Dharma,
it has to be practised well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

98:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Learn the Dharma wholeheartedly.
Practise the Dharma wholeheartedly.
Share the Dharma wholeheartedly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

99:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

If you fear you might fail
in serious Dharma practice,
you have already failed
before you start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

100:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

It is exactly because
we did not adequately exert ourselves
in Dharma learning and practice
in our past lives,
that we are still unenlightened
in this life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

101:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

We already have the best teacher –
the Buddha,
and the best teachings –
the Dharma.
All we need now,
is to learn and practise well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
