鬼神也是眾生，不要和祂對立，要敬而遠之；若起對立心，就是自己的眾生心生起了。要學菩薩四攝六度，讚歎祂所做的一切善行，祂就會歡喜。懂了這個道理，就不會迷信，到鬼神廟，也都要保持光明覺照。
　　Ghosts and deities are also sentient beings, you must not stand in opposition to them. Instead, just be courteous and pay respect, and keep an appropriate distance. By standing in opposition to them, you give rise to a mind of an ordinary sentient being. Therefore, you must learn from bodhisattvas practicing the four methods of pacification (almsgiving, loving words, conduct and action that benefits others, and cooperation with others) and six paramitas (charity, keeping precepts, patience, zeal and progress, meditation, wisdom), to give praise to their good deeds, so that they would be delighted. By understanding such reasoning, you will not have blind faith in ghosts and deities; and you must maintain bright awareness when you meet a temple of ghosts or deities.
