修行者成熟的征兆｜The Sign Of Maturity For Buddhists

修行者成熟的征兆不是神通，不是说的有多好，对别人的狂乱观察、评判的有多到位。而是相续愈加调柔，内心清净、谦卑 ，对上师及每一位众生的净观愈加深刻。修行成熟并非对一切都无所谓的放逸，而是愈加挑剔微细的因缘，谨慎观察每一刹那的因缘发生，取舍点点滴滴的因果。越是闻思、修行佛法，见解增上时，骄慢与自负就会愈来愈少。

修行增上也并不代表着你会持续感受连绵的大乐，而是对乐与苦都毫不在意。那么，如果你没有这些验相，就要观察自己的修行是否已偏离正道。

嘉样堪布

Instead of divine power, clever talks and accurate observations and judgments of others, the continuously soft, pure and humble heart, and the pure view toward the guru and all flesh are the sign of maturity for Buddhists.

Maturity is not about letting go of everything; it's about being more critical of karma and carefully observing the karma happening at every moment. The more you learn and practice the dharma, the more your insights enhance and the less your arrogance and conceit exist. Increasing practice does not mean that you will feel the continuous joy, but that you do not care about the joy and the pain.

If you do not have this feeling, you should observe whether your practice has deviated from the right path.
