承擔　林鈺堂

弘法勸化如開墾，耕耘灌溉年復年；
自願承擔續慧命，明知艱苦勇向前。

跋

弘法勸化若開荒，泥濘粗重無從辭。若待輕易方參預，何來機緣可利生？

Undertaking　Yutang Lin

Propagating the Dharma is like cultivating land;
Plowing, weeding and irrigating year after year.
Willingly undertaken to continue wisdom lives;
Realizing its difficulty still step boldly forward.

Comment:

Conveying Buddhist teachings to people is like cultivating land; dirt, mud and heavy jobs are unavoidable. If one would engage in Dharma services only when the load is light and easy to handle, then when will the opportunity arise to benefit sentient beings?
