Pure Goodness out of Original Purity

Yutang Lin

As conditions change situations evolve,
Practicing good and repenting bad never stop.
Merging into oneness beyond antagonism,
Charitable activities stem from original purity.  

Comment:

Some asked, "All things are impermanent; how to maintain good and be free from evil?" In general, it all depends on careful reflection on one's intentions and constant efforts. The fundamental solution is to practice Dharma to merge into limitless oneness. In such oneness the antagonism of good and bad is no more. From the great compassion of such oneness there naturally arise salvation activities of pure goodness.
