▲要幸福——索达吉堪布的新年约定

大家好，今天是元旦节，也是新一年的开始。

每个人都很开心，用自己的方式，过着特别幸福的节日。但也希望，我们的幸福不要建立在其他众生的痛苦之上。

过去一年，这个世界发生了许许多多的事，都是悲欢离合，都是无常。所以在新年里，我们应该有一个人生的规划、生活的规律，最好能从内心深处发一些愿。

比如闻思修行，系统地了解世间和出世间的真理。

或者终身吃素，不杀害其他众生。如果做不到，也可以在某个月、某些重要的节日吃素，这样对自己的健康、对其他众生的生命、对整个世界的环保，都有非常大的利益。

也可以想尽一切办法，不让家人痛苦，不跟他们吵架。因为家人，是这个世界上跟你最有缘的人。如果被他们误解，要修安忍之心。

还有，在新的一年，每个人都要想着做一些善法，做一些好事。

总之，不管你有没有信仰，最好都有一颗善良和清净的心。这样生存在世间，将非常有意义。

希望大家开心，希望大家快乐。

To Be Happy

New Year's Resolution

From Khenpo Sodargye

Hello, everybody, today is New Year's day, the start of a new year.

Everyone is very happy, and enjoys the joyful holiday in their own way. I hope that our happiness is not based on the other being's suffering.

In this past year, a lot of things happened in the world, which involved the joy and the sadness, the reunion and the separation, there were so many impermanent events. I think, in the coming year, everyone should have the plan and rules for their life.

Starting today, we'd better aspire spontaneously such as to listen, contemplate and practice, to systematically learn the mundane and ultimate truth, or to be vegetarian for life, to never kill the other beings. Even if you can't do this, you could try not to eat meat on some special days in each month. It will have a great benefit to your health, the other being's life, the environment protection of the whole world as well.

Starting today, we could try our best not to let our family suffer, not to quarrel with them, because your family actually are the ones who mostly share the fate with you, you'd better not to argue or fight with them. Even other people criticize you, you should try to practice the patience.

Also in the new year, everyone should be willing to have wholesome action, to do some good thing.

In one word, no matter if you have the faith or not, it's better to have kind and pure mind, then our life would be very meaningful to this world.

I wish you all happy and joyful!
