盲點　林鈺堂 簡繁轉換 - 繁體

眼有盲點縱已知，依然無從免缺陷；
聞法得悉我執苦，行止見思猶繫吾。

跋

學佛者皆知我執之害，奈何難以省悟自限之處，而不得超脫。「自我」誠乃法眼慧目之盲點。

Blind Spot　Yutang Lin

Even though existence of the blind spot is known,
Eyes could not be implemented to rid such defects.
Having learned about suffering from self-centeredness,
Yet views and actions are still tied to personal interests.

Comment:

People who have studied Buddhist teachings all know the damages caused by grasping to a self. Nevertheless, it is very difficult to realize where one's self-imposed limitations lie. Consequently, emancipation from self could not be achieved. "Self" certainly resembles the blind spot (scotoma) of the Dharma wisdom eye.
