Labyrinth
Yutang Lin
Our courses in life are like inside a labyrinth;
Karmic retribution builds roadblocks aplenty.
Running in circles could vainly find any exit;
Repent and accumulate merits to widen road.
Comment:
All phenomena are much too complicated for anyone to comprehend.
Any move we make readily runs into rebukes, much hardship to bear.
Causal conditions and karmic retributions run their course impartially.
Walking the right path with sincerity one will glean accord eventually.
