艺术创作与艺术家 meaning in English

artistic performance and artists

To earn a living , both sister chen and i had worked very hard at our worldly jobs , but we were doing only a perfunctory job of exhibiting master s art work during the world lecture tour , using the excuse of short manpower and time . also , thinking that the emphasis should be on the lecture stage , we neglected to consider that people who appreciate works of art would feel an affinity with master through this medium and hence be provided with an opportunity for liberation . master s words jarred us from our slumber
我俩曾经在世俗养生糊口的工作上十分卖力，对于明师弘法时的艺术展示，却以人力不足时间紧迫为理由而草率处理，误以为师父讲经弘法，布置的重点应该偏向讲经台上，而忽略到师父以艺术创作与艺术家结缘度他们，师父的那席话，点醒了我们许多概念，师父曾经在弘法的过程里鼓励过我们：和明师一起工作一起弘法，是和明师同一个办公室办公一样。
