大寶法王在開示寂天菩薩的入菩薩行論:

Karmapa, during a teaching on Bodhisattvacaryāvatāra, ‘A Guide To The Bodhisattva’s Way of Life.’ :

自我批評  Self-criticism

不要去批評我們的想法、我們對這個世界的看法、我們對自己的看法和我們對別人的想法，而這是非常重要的。相反，我們可以以某種方式描述或者查明，如果我們想要幸福，那麼總是很合理地生起寬容的心。然後，透過這條道路或這樣的修持，我們便培養出持續的喜悅或持續的果實。並在同一時間進行種下種子和耕種果實，所以它永遠不會用完。

It is important not to criticize the way we think, the way we view the world, the way we think of ourselves, the way we think of others. Instead, we can somehow depict or pinpoint that if we wish for happiness, then it always makes sense to generate a greater heart. Then, through this path or through this practice, we cultivate unceasing joy, or unceasing fruit. It sort of simultaneously bears the fruit and at the same time plants the seed, so that it never runs out. 2016-06-03

障礙    Obstacles

從佛教徙的觀點，我們其實要對障礙有感激之心，因為如果沒有障礙我們永遠也不會學習。感謝困難和挑戰使我們可以想出解決方案，有些方案是可行的有些是不可行的。但是儘管有些方案是不可行的，這並不表示我們應該放棄。這只是表示我們應該再次嘗試。

From a Buddhist perspective, we actually have to be grateful for obstacles, because without them we never learn. It is thanks to difficulties and challenges that we can come up with solutions, some of which will work and some not. But even if they don’t work it doesn’t mean we should give up. It only means we should try again. 2016-06-01
