易瑞明贏得全國學科優異獎學金申請許可

易瑞明是由全國五萬名高二學生中,選出准許繼續參加2001年全國學科優異獎學金競賽。去年十月一百二十多萬學生參加PSAT大學入學評估測驗預試。只有在少於百分之五的最高成績的學生之中才合乎學科優異的許可。贏得獎學金的名單將於明春公佈。PSAT依字句推理、評鑒閱讀、數理解析及寫作技巧諸項來評定學生校內、校外經年的學習成果。雖然只有高三的學生可參加學科優異獎學金的兢賽,但學生在初三時即可參加PSAT。恭喜!易瑞明,再接再勵!

上人語錄 Venerable Master's Dharma Words
※古人說:「君子造命」。有道德的人,正人君子,是可以改造命運,超出命數之外。為何不吉祥,就是心理不吉祥,種下惡因當然有惡報,若能改過從善,便可趨吉避凶。
◆The ancients said, "The Superior One molds his own destiny." An upright person endowed with Way Virtue is capable of modifying his destiny and transcending fate. Why are there unpropitious happenings? It is because there is unpropitiousness in our minds which plants evil causes resulting in evil retributions. If we can rectify our wrongs and conform to wholesomeness, we will be able to draw close to auspiciousness and avoid ill omens.
