文／佛光星雲（1927～）

面孔要有表情，要有微笑。

眼睛要有慈悲，要有關懷。

口中要有好話，要有讚美。

耳朵要有善聽，要有分辨。

手腳要有服務，要有助人。

心裡要有祝福，要有尊重。

Six Guidelines on Living

Venerable Master Hsing Yun (1927~)

English translation: Ven. Zhi Yue and Alex Madjar

Be expressive;

Remember to smile.

Look upon others with compassion;

And remember to care.

Speak kind words;

Remember to praise.

Be of service;

And remember to help.

Listen to wholesome speech;

Remember to distinguish between right and wrong.

Bless others with your heart;

And remember to respect all.
