There is an Indian story about a bar of candy that came to see God in Heaven and complained: "Dear God, I am so sweet. I am so nice! I keep the Five Precepts. I meditate all the time." The sugar candy, as you know, it always sits on the table doing nothing. He says he never does harm to anyone. "But anyone, even the ants, the flies -- anyone who comes near me wants to eat me. Why? What have I done? Doesn't the law of karma exist anymore?" Because God says that if you do something bad, if you harm someone, if you are sour, then people will return sourness to you. But if you are sweet to people, if you are nice and you don't do any harm to people, then they will never harm you, right?


有一个印度故事,是讲一颗糖果去天堂见上帝,它跟上帝抱怨说:「亲爱的上帝,我那么甜、那么好,不但遵守五戒,又一直都在打坐。」是啊!糖果一向都「坐」在桌上,无所事事。它说它从不曾伤害过任何人。「不过每个人一靠近我,就想把我吃掉,连蚂蚁、苍蝇也不例外,为什么?我犯了什么错?难道因果法律已经荡然无存了吗?」因为上帝说过,假如你做坏事、伤害别人、对人不好,那么别人也会对你不好。但如果你对别人好,又不伤害任何人,人家就不会伤害你,对吗?


So the candy said, "Why me? I am a candy. (Laughter) I am so sweet, and people always eat me and abuse me, why?" And God said, "You better step a little bit further before I answer you." And the candy said, "Why, you don't like me?" So God said, "Just do it! Stand away, please!" Hes nearly lost Hiers temper. Oh, Hes shouted very hard, very loud. And the sugar was shaking, thinking that God got angry with him and didn't like him. He said, "M-m-m-y G-g-god, but what did I do?" So God said, "You didn't do anything, but if you stay too near, I will also want to eat you!" (Laughter and applause)

所以糖果说:「为什么我不同呢?我是一颗糖果(大众笑),这么甜,而人们却一直想吃我、虐待我,为什么?」上帝说:「你最好站远一点,我才回答你。」糖果说:「为什么?您不喜欢我吗?」上帝说:「只管照着做,站远一点,拜托!」上帝快要发脾气了,喊得很用力、很大声。糖果在发抖,它以为上帝在生气它,不喜欢它。它说:「老…天…啊!我做错了什么呢?」上帝告诉它:「你没做错什么,只不过你如果站得太靠近的话,连我也想把你吃掉。」(大众笑及鼓掌)


Everything in this world has a nature of its own. Some are charming, some are seducing, like the candy, chocolate, the cakes, and some burn everything like fire, as soon as you get near. 


天地万物各有其本质,有些东西很有吸引力、很诱人,像糖果、巧克力、蛋糕等;有些则像火一样,任何东西一靠近就会被它烧掉。
