大慧普覺禪師語錄 19.8

19.8

世人現行無明，矯而為善，善雖未至，豈不勝寡廉鮮恥託善而為惡者？教中謂之因地不真，果招紆曲。苟能直心直行，直取無上菩提，可謂真大丈夫之所為矣。塵劫來事，只在如今，如今會得，塵劫來事即時瓦解氷銷；如今不會，更經塵劫亦只如是。如是之法，亘古恒然，未嘗移易一絲毫許。

Worldly people who currently enact ignorance and correct themselves to do good, even if the good is not yet fully attained, are they not far better than those shameless and unprincipled people who rely on a pretext of good to commit evil? In the teachings this is called: when the causal ground is not true, the fruit incurs twists and turns. If you can have a straightforward mind and straightforward practice, directly grasping unexcelled bodhi, this can be called the conduct of a true great hero. Matters from kalpas as numerous as dust motes are found only in the present moment; if you understand right now, the matters from kalpas as numerous as dust motes instantly collapse like tiles and melt like ice. If you do not understand right now, even after passing through kalpas as numerous as dust motes it will still be just like this. Such a dharma has been eternally so throughout all antiquity, never shifting in the slightest bit.
