◎內容簡介：

靜思語第一集單行本出版後，陸續出版了第二集第三集，及其他靜思語多國語對照版本。簡短又充滿智慧的靜思語已被翻譯成十八種語言，讓智慧法語跨越語言國界，傳到世界各地。

近幾年各國的慈濟志工在各社區分享靜思語，在商店張貼靜思語海報，將靜思語書籍分送到各地圖書館、飯店、監獄等地方。

慈濟即將要邁入五十週年 (也是靜思語第一集再版的第二十個年頭)，編輯出版團隊重新校對，讓英文版更貼近證嚴上人的法，更準確傳遞靜思法脈精神。誠心期盼讀者在閱讀此書時心靈獲得滋潤與啟發。

Jing Si Aphorisms, Volume One (then called Still Thoughts) was first published in 1996. The Jing Si series volumes succinctly and directly penetrate the heart of the Dharma to offer guidance for life in these modern times. Each short saying carries deep wisdom that leads readers to reflect and engage the Buddha’s teachings in their daily lives. The second part collects the common doubts and worries the general public holds; Dharma Master Cheng Yen answers these life questions with Dharma’s wisdom.

Jing Si Aphorisms, Volume I is followed by two additional volumes, as well as several aphorism collections in books and other formats. The Aphorisms have been translated into as many as eighteen languages, making their concise wisdom accessible to people the world over. In recent years, Tzu Chi volunteers in several countries have even gone out to share these sayings with their communities by hanging Jing Si Aphorism posters in shops and donating copies of books to libraries, hotels, and prisons.

As Tzu Chi’s fiftieth anniversary approaches (as well as the twentieth anniversary of this volume), we have revised several of the aphorism translations to ensure that the English aphorisms meet the clarity and quality standards that Master Cheng Yen has always intended. We hope that you will find wisdom and inspiration in these pages that will benefit your life and the lives of those around you.

◎書摘（Excerpt）

Every day is a new beginning, every moment a time for self-vigilance.
Over time, we can build great character, achieve great success, and cultivate great virtue.

Life is like walking on a tightrope. We should concentrate, look ahead, and walk forward. Do not look back with useless regrets.
The path of this life is not very long, but it is difficult to walk on. Therefore, we need to watch our every step carefully to that we do not get lost and go astray.
~Quotes from Part 1
