專一 林鈺堂

步入歧途漸轉遠,人生迷陣慎起初;
成佛匪易宜專一,證悟機緣免錯失。

佛友來問,自從學佛之後,往往為謀消減周遭之業苦即忙不過來;如何方能專心修法?

稍涉沾染,漸成迷失。人生迷陣,慎防入歧。成佛大事,宜守專一。以免錯過,證悟機緣。

Single-mindedly Yutang Lin

Stepping into devious path one gradually turned far off.
Within the maze of life be cautious with the beginnings.
Attaining awakening is not easy, track single-mindedly,
Lest opportunities for comprehension slip through one.

Comment:

Slightly contaminated, gradually became lost. Life is like a maze; be cautious so as not to step astray. The important matter of attaining enlightenment should be pursued single-mindedly, lest opportunities for comprehension slip away.
