證嚴上人的叮嚀與靜思語 Master Cheng Yen’s Teaching and Jing-Si Aphorisms:
• 人生的目的，不在於享受物欲，而是盡責任；人的責任，就是去付出。
The purpose of life is not just to get pleasure but also to fulfill responsibility. Our responsibility is to advance benefit of all humankind.
• 欲之所以誘惑人，都是起於一時的貪及一念心的偏差。
People could not resist the undue temptation because of their greed and loss of consciousness.
• 我們要以感恩心面對每個人，還要勤造福；常保心平氣和就會平安，懂得修慧就能心寬。
We should always feel thankful toward others and make good deeds. Keep our mind humble and our wisdom growing will ensure peace and fulfillment.
• 救社會的方法，唯有一樣──『愛』。人心有愛，社會才有救。
Love is the only prescription to cure the ills of society. Only everyone shows his/her love, the society can recover from quagmire.
• 於己，要抱著謙虛受教的心態；對人，則要珍惜共事的因緣。
We should maintain respectful and humble attitude toward those around us and cherish the share experience with them.
