Subject: 轉貼:「舌下有龍泉,殺人不見血」

作者是 : Storywood (羅先生)

有句話說:「刀子嘴,豆腐心」,表示一個人講話直了點,重了點,但沒有惡意,也就是「口惡心善」。我們說話刺傷別人時,也常以「我沒有惡意」來脫罪,或祈求對方諒解。但,真的是這樣嗎﹖

我以前也常常刺傷人,對方生氣時,我不但不道歉,還變本加厲指責對方沒有氣度,量小非君子,及至自己讀到《證嚴法師靜思語》中的一句話,才恍然大悟,錯了。

這句話是這麼說的:「脾氣嘴巴不好,心地再好,也不能算好人。」


為什麼﹖因為不管有意無意,你已經因為話語而傷害人,這在佛經裡頭稱做「口業」。

想到這一句話,我此後再也不敢逞口舌之快。

無心之過尚且容易傷人,更不用說以口舌挑撥離間,惡意中傷的劣行了。

許多人伶牙俐嘴,尖酸刻薄,喜歡在言語上占人便宜;也有人憑其不爛之舌,搬弄是非,謀取利益。多少戰爭因挑撥而起,多少禍端因造謠而來,多少爭執因教唆而生。挑撥離間、造謠生事、教唆殺人只須動口。——在這時候,「君子動口不動手」這句話,必須改寫。

道家經典云:「舌下有龍泉,殺人不見血」。龍泉是古代的寶劍,鼓動舌頭,便如利劍取首級般可怖,不,應當說,比用劍殺人還可怕,因為不見血,甚至不露痕跡,不留傷口,被害者渾然不覺。

害人之心不可有,我們要謹言,以免傷人而不自知﹔防人之心不可無,我們要小心,以免被陷害而不自覺。
