Part 1
If you establish happiness on something that is formed by the coming together of causal conditions. this implies that your happiness will be conditional.
Once that thing your happiness depends on dissolves away with the scattering of those causes and conditions, your happiness too will dissolve away.
Happiness that is based on external things will not last, no matter what the external things are. Then too, this kind of happiness is just a kind of feeling, and feeling is a kind of memory, and memories are things that will be lost.
So then, this hope of making yourself happy through external things is without a doubt a great contradiction. (page 56)
Part 2
This is because you clearly understand that everything in the world is memory－whatever you eat,whatever you drink,whoever you chat with,whatever other people tell you－all these are things that have passed you by.
Whether you calculate and compare or not, you cannot really change anything, and there is nothing that does not pass you by.
After you clearly understand this fact, you will not suffer loss, and you will not feel pain and suffering any more. You will discover that adapting to conditions is truly a good thing.
If you can truly adapt to conditions, then no "issues"will exist in this world, and there will only be apparent forms, there will not be any"pain and suffering;”only“ experience”and" nourishment.”(page 58-59)

如果你把快乐建立在因缘聚合之物上面，就意味着你的快乐是有条件的，一旦它依附之物随着因缘的离散而消亡，它也会随之消失。而且，这种快乐只是一种感觉，感觉是一种记忆.记忆是会被忘掉的东西。那么，通过外物来让自己变得快乐的这个希望，无疑是一个巨大的矛盾。(46页）
因为你明白，世上一切都是记忆，吃了什么，喝了什么，跟谁聊过什么，别人说了你什么等等一切，都是过去了的东西，你计较与不计较，都不能真正改变什么，也没有什么不会过去。当你真正明白了这个事实之后，就不会失落，更不会感到痛苦。你会发觉，随缘确实是一个好东西，假如能够真正随缘，这个世界上就不存在任何“问题”，只有“现象”，没有任何“痛苦”，只有“经历”和“营养”.（47页）

Staying on the way,
Seeing all things you have associated with,
Where are they?
They all go into memory,
Memory goes into being lost.
Without memory, where are those things what we call we truly have gained and lost?
