生活對話中常提到之尊重一詞，似乎已成為人與人溝通、互動之必備素養，但絕大多數都尚停留在人之間互相尊重，其實尊重並不如此狹隘，尊重應包括對人、事、物、大自然及天地之間所存在之有形與心靈層面。謹此抱著尊重之心境作以下之分享。

　　尊重在人之間應扮演著無私之心靈傳達的媒介，同時開闢另一種智慧的空間，尊重本身即是一種生命，它存在人與人之間不同角度之語言機械中的潤滑劑，讓雙方達到愉悅對話的境界，藉此更能發揮尊重的生命本質之影響力。在此亦要強調尊重並不等於包容，包容是消極的作法正如退一步海闊天空忍一時風平浪靜，其實這些用語已使尊重被誤解。以另一個角度而言尊重是積極的作法是一種預防之心理學，而包容是治療心理學之下下策。因此要使尊重在人之間建立其不可漠視的影響層面，必須在對話之前，起心動念之同時即能與對方產生共鳴，相信任何人事物都會相當圓滿。

　　尊重在事之間，應維持事件之因果完整性，及洞察先機，平常人處理事件其實並不了解事件之始末，導致解決一問題後衍生其他問題，所以尊重事情之形成及其產生之問題是一種解決與處理事情之最高境界，亦即讓事情在無礙的空間中展現無遺，循著事情發展之軌跡尋求事情在過去、現在及未來是完全被尊重且能朝正面之利益眾生方向發展。

　　尊重在物之間，其表現即是環保的概念物盡其用乃惜福之最佳寫照，延長物品之使用期限即可降低製造物品之汙染及回收再利用成本，讓人與物共存，因此尊重生活中所存在有形之物體發揮它的功能，產生更多之附加價值乃是尊重對物體永續經營之詮釋。

　　尊重在大自然之間，在天地之間，其實就是一種訊息的傳遞，而且傳遞著所有衝突之解決方法，而此方法也只有人能理解且更知道如何運用此訊息「尊重」另一種智慧，讓天地之間、大自然之中生生不息之生命圓滿與心靈之昇華。

　　總而言之，尊重在人為生命教育，在事即因緣無住自在，在物為永續利用，在天地無善惡對待。期待「尊重」在所有相中產生實質的作用破除人心理深處之無明，讓迷與悟找不到界線。

Another Kind of Wisdom -- Respect

The word “respect” is often mentioned in our daily dialog. It seems to have become the communication and interaction among people but the overwhelming majority still stays, respecting each other only among people. In fact, the respect is not so narrow. The respect should be in the human, the matter, the article, the Nature and even in the world of visibility existence and soul aspect. So I share the following with the respectful mood.

The respect should act the selfless mind transmission medium among the human and simultaneously open another kind of wisdom space. The respect itself is one kind of life. It is a lubricant which exists in different angles of language machinery among people. It makes both sides achieve the joyful dialog. This can more display the respect influence of the life essence. Here, I emphasize that to respect does not mean to endure. Endurance is a passive practice; that is, t aking a step back leads to the wider sea and sky; forbearing a moment leads to the calmer mood. In fact, these terms have made respect to be misunderstood. In another point of view, respect is the positive approach and the preventive psychology. Endurance is the worst policy of treatment psychology. Therefore, if we want to establish the great impact of respect among people, respect must occur before the dialog, and meanwhile in moving intentions, we resonate with each other. It is believed that any personnel matter will be quite satisfactory.

Respect in matters should maintain the cause and effect integrality of the incident and insight into the opportunities . While ordinary people deal with the matters, they don't understand the whole story. It causes to give rise to another problem after solving one problem. Thus to respect the formation and result of incidents is the supreme realm of handling things. In other words, let the matter represent completely with nothing left. We seek the great benefit of all living creatures by totally respecting the orbit of matter development in the past, the present and the future.

The display of respect among articles is the environmental protection concept. It is the best portrayal of cherishing the good fortune by making the best use of every article. To extend the use of materials can reduce the pollution of manufacturing articles and the recycling costs, so people and articles can coexist. Hence, respecting the tangible objects in our daily life, performing its functions and producing more additional value is respecting for the interpretation of sustainable management of the objects.

The respect in Nature, between heaven and earth is actually the message transmission. Moreover, it conveys solutions of all conflicts. Only people can understand and more know how to utilize this message to respect another kind of wisdom. May the everlasting life be satisfactory and sublimate the mind between heaven and earth, in Nature.
