平和 林鈺堂 簡繁轉換 - 繁體

行者行徑如何是
當看心地漸寬鬆
逢事體諒多寬容
出語平和淡論事

若老計執想太多
語帶譏諷論人非
提及自身過謙抑
便是無我未參透

久修卻成多計較
常令佛祖悲憫深

Impartial Yutang Lin

How should a Dharma practitioner's way be
Just observe if state of mind is becoming more relaxed
As matters arise, be empathetic and more tolerant
Saying things in an impartial and peaceful manner

If always mindful of details and think elaborately
Making derisive statements in counting others' faults
Mentioning oneself in excessively abasing terms
Then absence of self has not been comprehended

After long-term practices and yet became entangled by trifles
Thus causing deep sympathy in Buddhas and patriarchs
