布袋和尚讚聯

林鈺堂

 

笑口常開　苦樂順逆究竟皆幻化無常
大肚包容　計較諍鬥消弭於一體圓融

 

二○二二年九月五日
養和齋　　　於加州

 

Poem 1630

Couplet in Praise of Cloth-sack Monk

Yutang Lin

 

Smiling mouth stays open
Bitter, enjoyable, agreeable or not, all ultimately transient

Huge belly absorbing
Comparing and fighting, all diminished in harmony of unity
