親愛的朋友,
在這即將到來的新年元旦，我想請大家花五秒鐘的時間，真誠地希望或祈願「佛法興盛、長住於輪迴當中」。只要希望或祈願即可，我沒有要求你們點燈、燃香、合掌、持咒或打坐禪修。只要一個清楚、真誠的祈願，出自於我們多數人真心希望佛法興盛長住的祈願，不論多短，它都將是佛法興盛、長住與堅固的關鍵。
這是因為真正的艱難已由佛陀自己承擔、完成，他在作為菩薩的時期承受了極多的困難。這位菩薩經常捨棄自己的快樂，以便將自身行動的力量投注於未來佛法的興盛。
為了病者，這位菩薩捐捨自己的食物；為了求取菩提心的隻字半語，這菩薩捨棄自己的孩子、配偶與財富；為了聽聞有關真理的一個字，這菩薩修持苦行，並且禮敬、尊崇、供養那些宣說真理的人、出離世間的人以及阿羅漢。
海量多劫以來，為了一切眾生的覺悟，這位菩薩畢生致力於尋求真理。為了達成此目的，他不曾停止聞法、學習、自律以及對十方諸佛作供養。
出於悲心，這位菩薩布施自己最珍愛的血、骨、肉、四肢和身體各部分。他以自己所有福德的力量，祈願佛法能夠興盛住世。
這位菩薩歷經如此的艱難，是為了要以三乘來引導所有眾生，以圓滿布施來開示佛法。他採用任何可能的方式以解救眾生免於煩惱之火，並幫助他們戰勝非善、享有善財。他盡最大心力於解救眾生免於邪見之牢，引導他們邁向正見的方向。他堅信佛法將會興盛廣傳。
確保佛法興盛住世的關鍵，完全在於我們對佛法的渴望。因此，再一次，親愛的朋友，我強烈建議你們，在2016年展開的第一天，以幾秒鐘的時間，祈願「佛法興盛、長住」。如果我們希望和諧、和平、繁榮，釋迦牟尼的教法就必須普傳於世。

Dear Friends,
In this coming new year I would like to request all of you to spend five seconds really wanting the Buddhadharma to flourish and remain in this samsara. Just simply wanting or wishing this will do. I am not even asking you to light a lamp, burn incense, fold your palms, chant a mantra, or sit and meditate. Just a sincere and clear wish, however short, from a lot of us truly wanting the Buddhadharma to flourish and remain, will be the key to its flourishing, longevity, and strengthening.
This is because the real hardship was borne and accomplished by the Buddha himself who endured so much difficulty in his bodhisattva days. So often the bodhisattva forsook his own happiness to dedicate the power of his actions to the flourishing of his own dharma in the future.
For the ailing, the bodhisattva forsook his own sustenance. For one word of bodhicitta, the bodhisattva gave his own child, spouse and wealth. To hear one single word of truth, the bodhisattva undertook penance and paid homage, venerated and made offerings to truth tellers, renunciants, and arhats.
For ocean-like aeons, for the sake of the enlightenment of all, the bodhisattva dedicated his life to searching for the truth. To that end he never stopped hearing, learning, disciplining himself, and making offerings to the buddhas of the ten directions.
Out of his compassion the bodhisattva gave his most cherished flesh, bone, and blood, his limbs and body parts. By the power of all his merit, the bodhisattva aspired that the dharma will flourish and remain.
The bodhisattva went through such hardships to lead all beings through the three vehicles and to give them the dharma through his perfect generosity. He engaged in every possible action to rescue beings from the fires of emotion and to help them win victory over non-virtue and enjoy the wealth of virtue. And the bodhisattva put his utmost effort into rescuing beings from the dungeon of wrong views and to lead them in the right direction to the right view. There was never an ounce of doubt that the dharma will not flourish.
The key to ensuring the dharma will now flourish and remain depends only on our mere wanting of the dharma. So once again, dear friends, I urge you to begin 2016 with just a few seconds of simply wanting the dharma to flourish and remain. If we wish for harmony, peace and prosperity, Shakyamuni must prevail.
