布施,能够去除自己的悭贪、瞋恚,消业障、增福慧,对方得到我们的帮助,能够度过困难,乃至得以听闻佛法、去除烦恼。所以,布施法门既能自利、又能利他、又能庄严菩提之道。
Giving can eliminate greed and hatred, remove karmic obstacles, and increase merit and wisdom. Giving can also help others overcome their difficulties, leading to the opportunity to hear the Dharma, and eventually uproot their afflictions. Therefore, giving not only benefits ourselves and others, but also fulfills the bodhi path.
