人最难看得见的就是自己

The most difficult thing to see clearly is oneself.

人最难看得见的就是自己。

We cannot see our true self in the mirror because of our attachment to “me, myself and I”. From this, we differentiate and discriminate against “others”. We can only see others’ faults but never our own problems.

在镜子前,看不到自己是因为我们心中有一个“我执”。有了这个“我”,我们才会生起“分别心”。只看到别人的缺点,却永远看不到自己的问题。

— Excerpted from the book “I Ask The Buddha”《我问佛》
