in perceiving suffering as it is.  去如实地感知苦难。

They have infused societies with kindness,  她们让世界充满善，

Jody Williams called it:  茱蒂?威廉斯说：

It's good to meditate².  冥思有益。

I'm sorry, you've got to do a little bit of that, Jody.  不好意思，你是不是该这么做做了，茱蒂。

Step back, give your mother a break, okay.  等等，让我喘口气再说。

But the other side of the equation is you've got to come out of your cave. 但是公式的另一半是你必须走出自己的洞穴。

You have to come into the world like Asanga did, 融入这个世界如同无著，

who was looking to realize Maitreya Buddha³ after 12 years sitting in the cave. 它跟着弥勒菩萨修行在洞穴里坐了12年。

He looks, it's a dog, he drops to his knees.  他定睛一看，是条狗，他跪了下来。

He sees that the dog has this big wound on its leg.  看见狗的腿上有个大伤口。

The wound is just filled with maggots.  里头化脓生蛆。

He puts out his tongue in order to remove the maggots,  他用舌头弄出蛆，

so as not to harm them.  以免伤害到它们。

And at that moment,  那一刻，

the dog transformed into the Buddha of love and kindness.  狗幻化成爱与善的佛。
