「自我」可以使人，幾乎在做任何事情的時候，無論那件事多自私、多缺德，他都真心地相信，這樣做是為了佛法和眾生的利益。第一個自私的行為，會導致第二個，一直滋生下去，直到他回到起點，完全迷失在輪迴之中。卻留下了一個更強、更狡猾的「自我」須要調伏。

The "I" can make someone, almost whatever he do, whether that is very selfish, very wicked, he sincerely believes that what he does is for benefit dharma and sentient beings. The very first selfish act, will cause the second act, and it will keep on and on, until he has was go back to the beginning, and completely lost in samsara. But what is left, is a even more stronger, more cunning of "I" need to be tamed.
