安渡_Passing Peacefully

莫待無常已面臨，方悟牽纏皆虛妄；
任人行徑不掛懷，安住純真無事中。

跋

世間紛紛擾擾，各趨所好，為執而苦。無常一到，一切煙消雲散。早日醒悟，莫隨外境而馳逐。法界之大，無垠無盡，何獨鍾於此或彼？安於本來純真，過清閒心地之人生。

Passing Peacefully　Yutang Lin

Don't wait till impermanence is in front of your face
To realize that all entanglements are delusive and vain.
Whatever ways others are taking won't bother you a bit,
Simply abide in the purity that is beyond worldly affairs.

Comment:

In the world there are much fuss and fury. People run after their preferences and suffer because of their attachments. Upon the arrival of impermanence all matters just fade away as smokes and clouds disperse. Awake sooner; don't chase after changes in environment. Dharmadhatu is so expansive, without limits and ending; why should one grasp to this or that alone? Be content with original purity and pass your life in worry-free state of mind.
