把一天的生活当一生来观修

Live each day as if it were an entire lifetime

假如一天相当于一生，你要看看“这一生”做了什么善法？

Try to live each day as if it were an entire lifetime. At the end of each day, check with yourself: What good deeds have I done in “this life?”

如果孩童时代、壮年时代、老年时代都没有做，那一辈子就浪费了，临死之前根本没有把握。

If no virtue has been gathered in childhood, youth, or in later years, then your whole life has been wasted and you will be unprepared for death.

不管是什么年纪的人，对未来都应有一种无常感，提前计划好余生和后世的事情。

No matter how old we are now, we should remain mindful of the impermanence of life and make early plans for our remaining years and future life.

无常感如何才能生起呢？

How can we arouse this mindfulness about impermanence?

根华仁波切教给我们一个窍诀：把一天的生活当作一生来观修。

Kunzang Palden Rinpoche imparted to us a pith instruction: We practice mindfulness by seeing every day as a whole lifetime.

也就是，早上观想自己刚得人身，是孩童时代；

That is—in the morning, imagine you were just born and you live as a child;

中午观想自己为壮年人；

at noontime, think that you have reached the prime of your life;

下午观想为老年人；

in the afternoon you are turning into an old man;

晚上观想开始生病，接近死亡；

and at night picture your health failing and that you are moving closer to death.

入睡时观为离开人世；做梦观为中阴阶段；

When falling asleep, believe you’ve left this world and your dream state is the bardo* state,

第二天早上醒来时，观想为下一世。

and when you wake up the next morning, you are reborn in your next life.

假如一天相当于一生，你要看看“这一生”做了什么善法？

By living every day as if it were an entire lifetime, at the end of each day you can verify what good deeds you have accomplished in “this life.”

如果孩童时代、壮年时代、老年时代都没有做，那一辈子就浪费了，临死之前根本没有把握。

If no virtue has been gathered in childhood, youth or in later years, then your whole life is wasted and you will be unprepared for death.

如此观修，每一天才会过得有意义。

Such meditation adds value to each and every day.

如果你平时经常这样做，遇到什么事情才想得开，碰到什么问题才看得淡，

If you practice it constantly, your mind will remain calm and open under any circumstance, and you will not be driven to extremes by any problem.

行住坐卧始终都处于快乐的境地中。

Consequently, joy and peacefulness will permeate all your activities.

可惜的是，现在很多人这方面的安排一点也没有，而世间的安排却一大堆，这实在有些颠倒啊！

Alas, people these days rarely prepare for life’s impermanence but rather make huge plans based on temporal affairs. Isn’t that a serious mix-up!

*The bardo is an indeterminate or transitional state of existence between death and rebirth.
