假如没有来世北京外国语大学北戴河外语培训基地校长宋远利
有没有来世,众说纷纭。无神论者,不相信来世。他们认为从生到死,仅此而已。他们可能在意身后的英名,他们可能留恋后代的亲情,但他们不寄希望于来世。他们也会说善有善报,恶有恶报,但并不相信下辈子报应什么。
在宗教领域、或在一些迷信的人群,来世之说比较盛行。不仅是来世,甚至会认为有千百次的轮回。在那未知而飘渺的世界,有天堂,有地狱,有神族,有仙界,有菩萨、有佛祖。
也许真的相信、也许是为了利用人们的敬畏心里,古代的帝王们总是宣称自己是真龙天子,大臣们则标榜为天上的什么文曲星、武曲星或太白金星转世。星星能转世吗?
许多人烧香、磕头,行善、修德,并不都是为了眼前,而是为了让上天看见自己的真诚,以便下辈子有个好的托生,或者几世之后能修成正果。这些人自然是相信来世的。但我不禁要问:如果没有来世,你们会不会一样行善、修德呢?如果神灵看不见,你们是否也会公正无私呢?如果不是为了解脱他人和服务大众才去修行,如果仅仅是为了自己将来托生好才去行善,是否有些自私呢?比较起来,那些不相信来世而又坚持行善的人,则应该是最真、最诚的大善。因为他们不是为自身,而是为公理。
也许有人会问作者,你相信来世吗?我的回答是:我不知道前生, ……此处隐藏6033个字……you will no longer fear voicing new opinions, showing new facial expressions, using your body in new ways, approac(敬请期待更好文章:wwW.)hing new people, and asking new questions.
you will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and you will show your passion through the words you say and the actions you take.
you will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of your life. you will never give in (屈服,屈从) to challenges of hardships.
you will never waver (动摇) in your pursuit of excellence(追求卓越). after all, you are the best, and you deserve the best!
