Verse 60 •••• Great Compassion Mantra

大悲咒

60. 谨墀
nā jǐn chí

觀世音菩薩現山海惠菩薩

因為菩薩所擁有的智德高深如高山、似深海,故稱之為「山海惠」
譯:「那囉謹墀」意為賢愛成就
解說:「那囉謹墀」是說菩薩以無量慈悲,施行大乘無上妙法,指點賢者以防其誤入小乘之道的真言。
「大乘」是由梵語「摩訶」衍譯而來,意為載運大法同登彼岸。
也就是以所得的大智慧,澈悟人生解脫煩惱了悟不住生死的真諦,進而渡己渡人,同登彼岸。
但眾生常誤解大乘佛法為不可易習的佛埋妙境,而又誤以小乘為入門工夫,因而常捨大乘佛法而就小乘,使道業反而多所波折。
其實大乘「為人」,容易增進功德
小乘「為己」,不易增進功德所以修大乘易而修小乘難
這是一個很重要的道理,修道人應知所警惕!

微尘相海无量身
With manifestation as many as a sea of dust motes, he appears in infinite bodies.
六度万行勤耕耘
He diligently plows the field of the six perfections and myriad practices.
回小向大菩提果
Turning from the Small and embracing the Great is the Bodhi fruit.
自度化他般若心
Saving ourselves and teaching others is the prajna mind.
