布施,能夠去除自己的慳貪、瞋恚,消業障、增福慧,對方得到我們的幫助,能夠度過困難,乃至得以聽聞佛法、去除煩惱。所以,布施法門既能自利、又能利他、又能莊嚴菩提之道。
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.
