【不离】法王如意宝：你总爱怀念过去的种种美好吗？
活着不是为了怀念过去
There Is No Need to Cling to the Past
世间的一切，并非一成不变。
Nothing in this world is immutable and changeless.
就拿身体来说，年轻时，我们的脸庞犹如白莲花一样白里透红，英俊可爱，
Take the body. When young, your face is like a white water lily tinged with red, so handsome and lovely.
但即便美若天仙，一旦人老珠黄，也会像一截干枯的朽木，
Even if you are exquisitely beautiful, when you age and grow sallow, you too will be like a shriveled stump of rotten wood.
这时，自己看自己都心生厌烦，
By then, even you will be repulsed when you see yourself.
只有在心里默默怀念一去不复返的青春。
You can only silently yearn for your long-lost youth, which will never return.
多少人愿意欣赏老迈的身体呢？
How many people are willing to admire an aged body?
像我们这些上了六十岁的老年人，年轻人看了都会避之不及。
We elderly people in our sixties find that young people recoil at the sight of us.
但可以预见，在不久的将来，他们健美挺拔的身体，也定会如我们一样老朽。
But one can foresee that in the not-so-distant future, their own handsome, tall, straight bodies will surely deteriorate like ours.
无论何时何地，始终找不到没有生老病死的特例。
No matter where or when, there has never been an exceptional individual for whom birth, aging, illness, and death do not exist.
就算转轮王和帝释天到最后也会显示无常，我们这个脆弱的肉身，难道不会日益衰败吗？
Even Chakravartin and Indra both displayed impermanence in the end. How could these frail, fleshly bodies of ours not wane and decay day by day?
不仅身体是无常的，外在的世界也无一不是如此。
Not only is the body impermanent, but there is nothing in the external world that is not similarly subject to change.
高山平川、城市乡村、大漠戈壁……这些形形色色的环境，既有赏心悦目的地方，也有危险凶恶的处所。
High mountains and flat plains, cities and villages, the vast Gobi Desert—locales of every form and color have parts that please the eye and mind and also parts that are dangerous and threatening.
但不管是什么样的，终究都会被无常摧毁，就像沧海可以化为桑田一般，改头换面。
But they will all ultimately be destroyed by impermanence and undergo complete transformation, just as the sea can be transformed into mulberry fields.
既然无论是外在的世界，还是我们自身，都没有恒常不变的东西，那又何必对于现在所拥有的贪恋不舍呢？
Since there is nothing in the external world or within ourselves that is constant and unchanging, what need is there to cling to what we now possess?
在这个世界上，每个人的苦乐虽不相同，但有一点却是共同的：
Although each person’s happiness and suffering is different, we have one thing in common:
我们的快乐与痛苦，宛如天空中的闪电，
our happiness and suffering are like a flash of lightning in the sky.
全都是无常。
They are all impermanent.
可许多人不明白这一点，
Yet many people do not realize this.
他们执著于虚幻不实的身体、财物等，并为此造下了各种恶业。
They grasp at illusory and insubstantial things like the body, like wealth, and for the sake of these things they create all kinds of unwholesome karma.
直到临终之际才猛然发现，原来苦苦追求的这一切，竟连一根毛都带不走，
It is only when they face death that they suddenly realize that despite everything they have striven for, they cannot take with them even a strand of hair.
而跟自己如影随形、紧追不舍的，唯有这辈子所造的善业和恶业。
Instead, it is only the wholesome and unwholesome karma they created in this life that will follow them—pursuing them like a shadow.
