不孝父母，拜佛不会有感应的

　　如果你不知道对父母亲孝顺，到庙里面来拜佛不会有感应的。你人性还没找到，怎么找到佛性呢？所以叫“人成即佛成”。我们人性还没有恢复，佛性怎么会彰显呢？这个很重要，可以知道师父讲法，首先让我们恢复人性。

　　我刚刚学佛的时候，觉得已经把爸爸妈妈带进佛门了，我就可以跟师父出家了，但是我师父还常提醒我要跟家里写信，还要劝爸爸妈妈多念佛吃素，爸爸妈妈都学佛了，你修行才能够进步。

　　所以佛教里有一句话叫“亲得离尘垢，子道方成就。”爸爸妈妈如果还是在三恶道，或者还是懵懵懂懂不知道学佛，儿子想修成就可能吗？这个很重要，所以我们佛教界特别注重孝亲报恩。
No benefit from worshipping Buddhism without filial piety

If you don’t do your filial piety to your parents, you cannot get the benefit from worshipping Buddhism, for if you haven’t find your human nature, how can you find your Buddhist nature? There is a saying: Being a pefect human equals achieving the Buddhahood.” If our human nature hasn’t been found yet, how can the Buddhist nature appear in ourselves? It is very important. Master tells through Buddhist preaching that it is our priority to find human nature.

When learning Buddhism in the early stages, I thought that because of me my parents had become Buddhists, so I could become a monk under my Master’s instruction.However, my Master always reminded me to write to my family and advised them to chant the names of Buddha as much as possible and be vegetarian. Only when your parents both learned Buddhism could you have improvement in practicing Buddhism.
There is a saying in Buddhism: “Only when our parents get far away from the annoyances, can we as offsprings attain Buddhahood.” If our parents still live in the three evil paths or don’t learn Buddhism because of ignorance, how can we achieve Buddhahood? It is very important for us to do our filial piety to our parents, be gratitude and repay to them.
