然人之过恶深重者，亦有效验：或心神昏塞，转头即忘；或无事而常烦恼；或见君子而赧然消沮；或闻正论而不乐；或施惠而人反怨；或夜梦颠倒，甚则妄言失志；皆作孽之相也，苟一类此，即须奋发，舍旧图新，幸勿自误。
了凡四訓
As it is valid, for one who have serious faults; or they are dizzy, muddled and becomes forgetful the moment one turn around; or they are often troubled when there is nothing wrong; or they are discouraged when they see a gentleman; or they are unhappy when they hear the truth; or they are beneficial to others yet suffers from resentment; or the night dream is upside down, or even vain words and lose one’s will; both are guilty of sins, and they are like this, that is, one must work hard, give up the old ways and try to renew & make anew.
