惡語為什麼有非常嚴重的過失？

四種口惡業的第三個是惡語。惡口罵人，說別人的壞處、缺點、毛病；說別人不愛聽的話，不悅耳的話；通過各種方式對六根不具足的人，說他的短處，說聾子、瞎子、矮子、胖子，讓他人傷心，生氣，心情不愉快，這些都是惡語。

惡語這個罪過非常嚴重。因為人只要生起一剎那的嗔恨心，就會摧毀相續中所有的功德、福德和善根。你讓他傷心，讓他生氣，他就會毀壞這些，這等於你毀壞了這一切！這個罪過非常嚴重。所以說話的時候一定要注意，不要輕易說別人的缺點和毛病。

有的人說，「我是為了他好。」如果你是為了他好，那你得觀察一下，你有沒有調伏他的能力？你們之間有沒有這個緣分？如果沒有這些，你不但不能讓他改正，反而讓他生氣，讓他煩惱；如果你明明知道這樣做了以後是這個結果，你還要這樣做，那就有一定的罪過，而且你發心也不正確！

什麼是正確的發心？發心完全是清凈的，不為自己，只為他人。剛才你明明知道對方不能接受，你也明明知道自己沒有這個能力，你們之間也沒有這個緣分，你還說他的缺點，還找借口說是為他好，你這樣的發心已經不清凈了，你將來要感受果報。在因果面前，誰也裝不了，誰也躲不了。因果就像個秤一樣，都給稱得好好的，一點點也不會有差錯。所以說話一定要注意，不要輕易傷害別人。

順口說他人幾句壞話，看著也沒有什麼了不起似的，但是因果報應絲毫不爽，將來要感受極大的痛苦。有一個比丘尼，曾經罵其他的比丘尼為「母狗」，結果她在未來的五百世當中我跟你們講過，身惡業，殺生、偷盜、邪淫這些不容易犯。妄語、綺語、惡語、離間語這四種口業很容易犯，不知不覺地就會犯。意的不善業，貪心、害心、邪見這些就更容易犯了，起心動念都會造業。一定要注意！說惡語了，惡口罵人了，要統統的懺悔。

轉生為母狗。輕易說一句話，對自己來說也沒有什麼意義，就有這樣嚴重的後果。

不說惡語，多說悅耳語，說別人喜歡聽的，聽了高興的話，這樣自己生生世世也能得到好的果報，能聽到好聽的話，不會有人對你惡語，時刻都會有人讓你心情愉快，讓你快樂，多好啊！

Why Can Harsh Words Cause Extremely Severe Fault?

Of the four speech karmas, the third one is harsh words. Talking about others』 shortcomings; speaking unpleasant words; as to those with incomplete sense faculties, laughing at their disadvantages by all means, such as deafness, blindness, dwarfism or fatty. All of these are harsh words, which just leave others sad and hurt.

The sin of harsh words is very serious. Because the moment one arouses hatred, which will destroy all the virtues, merits and good roots accumulated in his continuity of mind. You make him sad and angry, in turn he will ruin all of these, which means you will destroy all. This sin is very serious. So you must mind your own words, don』t talk about others』 disadvantages and shortcomings casually.

Some say 「I』m just for his own good」. If you are really for his good, then you should observe whether you have the power to control him. Is there any karmic connection between you and him? If not, you will not only fail to correct him, but also make him angry and annoyed. If you already know the result of doing so but still do that, then you are guilty in a sense, and your motivation is not right.

What is the right motivation? It is the pure motivation, which is to benefit others instead of oneself. Just now, you have already known the other person involved cant accept it, you cant make it and there is no karmic connection between you two, but you still pointed out his faults with the excuse of doing it for him. Your motivation like this is already impure, so you will suffer bad karmic effects. Nobody can disguise or escape from karmas. Causes and effects are just like a scale, everything will be balanced well without a single mistake. So mind your own words and dont hurt others casually.

Speaking ill of others incidentally appears nothing much, but the law of cause and effect never fails and you will suffer extremely in the future. There used to be a nun, who once cursed other nuns as bitches. As a result, she kept being reborn as a bitch in her following five hundred lives. Speaking a sentence incidentally maybe doesnt mean much for the moment, but it has such a serious consequence.

I have told you that it is not easy to create such conduct karmas as killing, stealing or sexual misconduct, while it is easy to create such speech karmas unconsciously as lying, sowing discord, harsh words and worthless chatter. It is easier to create such mind karmas as greed, hurting or wrong views. Every thought is a cause of good or bad karma. Be aware! Once having spoken harsh words, you must confess.

Speak more pleasant words instead of harsh words and one can get good karmic retributions from life to life. Hearing pleasant words instead of harsh words, you will be pleased by others at any time, and how wonderful it is!

走進大圓滿

餘生，讓我們一路同行
