證嚴上人從接觸《法華經》到通徹其精髓的《無量義經》，並作為開展志業的佛典依歸，讓慈濟人在「行經」的過程中體會道理，所走的菩薩道是一條真實之路，也是經中所說的：「菩提大道直故。」

《真實之路》將靜思法脈與慈濟宗門的義理，脈絡分明地作有系統的整理，使讀者能完全了解其內涵。全書共分為三部：第一部：直指菩提道，闡述慈濟宗門的源起及慈濟四大志業的逐步發展成形。第二部：現代修行人的理念與實踐，陳述慈濟人如何依循法脈與宗門理念實踐經文。第三部：一生無量，證嚴上人以二十則真人真事為例，每一則都是對《無量義經》的如實體現，證實了靈山不須遠求。藉由尊重生命，拔苦予樂，將個人生命的分分秒秒充分發揮，則人人皆能實踐佛陀教義。

Introduction

The Path to Truth presents the principles of the Jing Si Dharma-lineage and the Tzu Chi School of Buddhism in an organized manner so that readers can gain a more comprehensive understanding. The book is divided into three parts.

Part One: Pointing directly to the Bodhisattva-Path, the origins of the Tzu Chi School of Buddhism are explored, along with the gradual development of Tzu Chi's four missions.

Part Two: Principles and Practices of the Modern-day Bodhisattva explains how the sutras are practiced and understood in this lineage and school of Buddhism.

Part Three: From One to Infinity, Master Cheng Yen recounts twenty real-life stories as physical manifestations of the Sutra of Infinite Meanings. From this we can see that it is not necessary to seek enlightenment somewhere far away. We can all carry out the Buddha’s teachings of respecting life by relieving suffering and giving joy, and fully utilizing our abilities to do good deeds every second of our lives.
