以戒为师，严格持戒

Taking Precepts as the Teacher, Strictly Adhering to Precepts

“皈依受戒”与“持戒与否”不是一个问题。皈依佛法僧三宝是入佛门的第一步，皈依三宝后才是佛弟子。而且皈依受戒之后会得到佛的清净戒体，得到护法菩萨的佑护，修行的障碍会少些。"

Taking refuge and receiving precepts" and "adherence to precepts" should not be a question at all. Taking refuge in the Triple Gem (Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha) is the first step in entering the Buddhist path, to be qualified as a disciple of the Buddha. Moreover, after taking refuge and receiving precepts, one attains the pure “precept body” from the Buddha and receives protection from Dharma protectors and Bodhisattvas. This leads to fewer obstacles in one's practice.

没皈依三宝，只是遵守五戒不是在册的佛门弟子，仅是“校外生”，成就会慢些。要向好的佛门弟子看齐。做持戒的三宝弟子，而不应该说别人“哪些地方不持戒”而妄加评论，须知戒律是戒自己的，不是戒别人的，既为佛门弟子就应该以戒为师，严格持戒，精进修行，不改了脱生死之初衷。

Without taking refuge in the Triple Gem, merely observing the five precepts as a non-registered Buddhist disciple is akin to being an "extracurricular student," and progress will be slower. It is important to emulate virtuous Buddhist disciples and be a diligent practitioner of precepts. Instead of making unwarranted criticisms about where others may lack in upholding precepts, it is essential to recognize that precepts are guidelines for self-discipline, not for judging others. As disciples of the Buddha, one should take precepts as their teacher, strictly adhere to them, diligently practice, and do not deviate from the original intention of wanting to escape from the cycle of birth and death.
