Those Who Have Transgressions Should Repent 有罪者当忏悔

诸佛子等!合掌至心听。我今欲说诸佛大戒序。众集,默然听。自知有罪当忏悔,忏悔即安乐,不忏悔罪益深。无罪者默然,默然故,当知众清净。

《梵网经菩萨戒序》

All Buddha’s disciples and others! With joined palms and the sincere mind listen. I now desire to speak on all Buddhas’ Great Precepts’ preface. The assembly gathered, should silently listen.

Those who personally know they have transgressions should repent, with repentance then with peace and bliss, without repentance with transgressions increasing in depth.

Those without transgressions should be silent, with silence thus, it should be known that the assembly is pure.

Brahma Net Sūtra Bodhisattva Precepts’ Preface

Please Be Mindful Of Your Speech, Namo Amituofo!
