Dragon Gate: Law of the Heart
CHAPTER #6
忍辱降心
HUMILITY
修行人第一大病，是嗔毒。这嗔字，不是着了我相，就是着了人相，把六欲七情，都包在这嗔字里，千衍万过，都从嗔起。嗔字即是无明孽火，三毒之一毒。内则焚己，外则焚人。把一点灵根，生生烧死；把一座法身，生生烧坏。六腑不能调秦，五脏不能安和。
The greatest illness of people who cultivate is the poison of anger. This anger isn’t defined by oneself, but by others. The six desires and seven emotions are all contained within the single word “anger”. The thousand transgressions and ten thousand errors all arise from anger. It is an evil fire of delusion. It is the central of the three poisons. Internally, one scorches oneself, outwardly others are burnt. If one takes it as a spiritual basis they are incinerated life after life. If they use it as a means for meditation they are scorched by it life after life. The six organs are unable to regulate harmoniously and the five viscera are unable to be tranquil.
耳听他人骂我，嗔从心起，火自肝生，烈焰遇狂风，把一个能听能闻的耳根，忽然闭门塞窍，名为聋人
Hearing oneself being cursed at by others, anger rises from the heart. Fire grows in the liver, and becomes a blazing inferno, taking the ears of a person who can listen and hear and abruptly closing and stopping their aperture, making them into a deaf person.
目见他人侮我，嗔从心起，火自肾生，烈焰遇狂风，把一个能视的眼根，忽然闭门塞窍，名为瞽人。
Seeing oneself being insulted by others, anger rises from the heart, fire grows in the kidneys, becomes a blazing inferno, and takes eyes of a person who can see and watch abruptly closes and stops that aperture, making them into a blind person.
只因耳闻目见，突然口出嗔言，火从心起，气由胆生。胆中嗔怒之气，上不怕天地神明，中不怕善恶国法，恨不得一言之下，骂死他人；半句之中，辱死他人。其心只图快己，不防损己，把一个能言能说的舌根，突然闭门塞窍，名为哑人。
It is only because ears hear and eyes see that when angry words are spoken the fire rises from the heart. The Qi of the gall bladder grows, (the qi from the gall bladder is associated with anger), and one gives regard to neither the deities of heaven and earth above them, nor to the judgments and laws of man in their midst. Wishing to get a word in, to curse another person, if only just half a sentence to disgrace them, one’s heart speeds and they cannot keep from losing themselves. A person whose tongue can speak and talk is taken and their ability is closed and stopped, and they become a mute person.
这个聋人无耳，虽有五音六律，笙簧迭奏，鸾凤齐鸣，也不受用。纵使詈骂如雷，讥诮如鼓，也只得承受了。从此灭了灵根，与畜牲何异？
This deaf person without ears, though they may have the five tones and six pitches, as well as songs, rhythm and melody, still cannot appreciate them. If they give scorn and abuse like lightning and ridicule as a drum beat, they themselves are affected. From this their spiritual base is extinguished and how then are they different than a simple animal?
瞽人无目，虽有五色光明，金碧生辉，霞云炫彩，也不受用。纵使千娇百媚，美貌如花，众侮群欺，如提傀儡，也只得承受了。从此灭了灵根，与阴司何异？
This blind person without eyes, though there may be five colors and bright light, golden and azure light, they cannot appreciate them. When they are confronted with something bewitching, as beautiful as a flower, they will be deceived and disgraced; manipulated as a puppet. They themselves are affected by this. From it their spiritual base is extinguished and how is that different than a living hell?
哑人无言，虽有千愁万苦，不能诉于人前，百虑千谋，不能吐之出口，向人惟有手动内知，甘苦难伸，一遭病厄，艰难苦恼，虽父母不能知，即妻儿不能晓，胸藏韬略，也为废弃之人；笔走龙蛇，终是无能之语，人所憎厌，己所羞惭，与禽何异，与兽同群，却从何来？
The mute person is without words, though they have a thousand worries and ten thousand hardships; grievances which they lay before others. Their hundreds of thoughts and thousands of plans cannot be spit forth from their mouth. Those who have only action but no understanding will endure hardship, sickness, difficulty and confusion. Their mothers, fathers, wives and children cannot know what plans remain in their chests. They are the disabled; they write voraciously but in the end they cannot awaken. Others loathe them and they are ashamed of themselves, they are like the birds of the sky or beasts of the field. From where does this affliction arise?
这病根，悉从不能降嗔心来。不能降嗔心，又从不能忍辱来。世间众生身，皆是血气结成。嗔根自从无始劫前，早已种下这无明孽火，所以遇事顺心，心生欢喜。不知欢喜变作冤家。触境逆心，心生嗔怒，不知嗔怒便是劫根。大众，你们既已出家，原为生死，嗔根不斩，则毒龙攻入天根。既求出世，原因性命，嗔根不灭，则猛虎咆哮月窟。性则变作毒龙，愤生嗔火，火发烧身。命则变作猛虎，常生毒气，气急丧真。生死不明，皆因嗔重；性命不立，皆因火强。六根不能收，五官不能用，皆因嗔心未绝。
From where does the root of this disease come? From not being able to settle the anger in one’s heart, from not being able to endure humiliation. The people in this world have bodies formed of blood and qi. The root of anger predates any calamity and has passed itself down, this sin of ignorance, causing hearts to be happy when events are in our favor. Without understanding it, happiness becomes an enemy. When situations become unfavorable, anger grows in the heart, which unknowingly is the root of calamity.
大众，你们既已出家，原为生死，嗔根不斩，则毒龙攻入天根。既求出世，原因性命，嗔根不灭，则猛虎咆哮月窟。性则变作毒龙，愤生嗔火，火发烧身。命则变作猛虎，常生毒气，气急丧真。生死不明，皆因嗔重；性命不立，皆因火强。六根不能收，五官不能用，皆因嗔心未绝。
Everyone, you have all already renounced, in order to understand life and death. If the root of anger isn’t severed, this poisonous dragon will invade the root of heaven. If one wishes to transcend this world, the cause of their nature and life, and the root of anger hasn’t been extinguished, this vicious beast roars into the cave of the moon. Sexual desire becomes the poison dragon; resentment becomes the fire of hatred, which burns up the body. Life becomes a fierce tiger, which creates poisonous qi that conceals all so that truth is lost. Life and death is misunderstood all because of the gravity of hatred. If one’s nature and life isn’t upright it is because the fire is strong. If the six roots cannot be dealt with and the five senses cannot be used, it is all because anger has not been eradicated from the heart.
欲绝嗔根，先除恶念.大众，如何唤作恶念？这不能忍辱的，便是恶念。心中恶念在一日，还是一日恶人。恶人安能入道？大众，不能忍辱的人，其心不曾降伏，就如毒龙猛虎一般，只知辱他人，不容辱自己。好强好胜，人前夺趣逞威风，争名夺利，世上英雄，为俊杰豪侠。热肠能为众，不知救得人，必然杀得人。
If one desires to eradicate the root of anger first they must put an end to their sinister ideation. Everyone, what is a sinister ideation? Humility un-endured is called a sinister ideation. If one day a heart is filled with evil intentions than for that day one remains evil, and how can an evil person enter the Way? Everyone, people who cannot maintain humility, whose hearts cannot be subdued, are just like poisonous dragons and fierce tigers that can only chastise others but never abase themselves. They are always being competitive and putting themselves above others, competing for fame and profit and making themselves seem heroic for fame and honor. Seeking the warm-heartedness of all people they do not know how to save people and thereby can only be killing them.
计谋见识惯欺人，不知害得他，则是害得己。众生迷而不悟，不曾深思远虑，自家若死自家人，到底还是害自己。大众，你去辱人，即当回思人辱己，你去欺人，即当回思人欺己。他心即与你心同，你若辱他他辱你。大众，这个辱字，包得甚广。假如淫人妻子，便不顾她丈夫被辱，儿孙被辱，祖宗被辱，门族被辱。假如他人淫你妻子，便生嗔怒，大恶起来，想起这人淫我妻子，使我体面何存，若人闻知，岂但我被耻辱，连父母子孙的门风，祖宗的德行总坏了，岂可放他过去。
In the guise of broadening one’s knowledge they engage in deception of others, not realizing the harm they incur, a type of self harm. All living things are confused and thereby unable to awaken, never considering the long term, one’s own family is as if dead, in the end this is harmful to oneself. Everyone, if you go out to shame others, that intention will come back around and others will take advantage of you. Their heart and your heart are codependent; if you disgrace another they will thereby disgrace you. Everyone, this words “disgrace,” how broad it is! Like a wanton man’s wife, who is well in spite of her disgraceful husband, her disgraceful son, her disgraceful ancestors and her disgraceful clan. If another man is lustful after your wife anger is born and a great evil arises. Thinking of how this man lusts after my wife, how does this affect my credibility? If others hear about it not only will there be humiliation, but the standard that holds a family together and the virtuous nature of one’s ancestors are violated so how can I allow him to get away with this?
便要拿刀弄枪，动了嗔火杀念。再不想，他辱我便如此，我辱他又如何？今生妻女被人淫，必定前生有夙因。前世淫人妻女，而今生妻女被人淫。这是人的必有之因，必有之果。大众，各人听了这些语，万不可起淫乱之心。我对大众说，这些众生的性命，皆从淫欲而有。淫欲之心不除，生死之根不断。因淫欲而成色身，欲脱色身，先除淫念。若除淫念，色身之内生出法身，才能了脱生死。这是我的实话，休当作闲言放过。
One wants to grab a knife or a spear, the fires of enmity are lit and murderous ideation arises. If I am disgraced by another man and this is the consequence, if I disgrace him back what consequence will that bring? If a wife meets with adultery in this life it is certain that there was a cause of this in her past lives. If in a previous incarnation a man rapes another man’s wife, in this life he will be a woman who gets raped. This is the human reality of every cause having an effect. Everybody, listen to these words, never allow a wanton heart to arise. I’m telling everyone, this life which we all share exists because of lustful desire. If sexual desire isn’t overcome, than the root of life and death cannot be broken. Because of sexual desire the physical form is created, if one desires to transcend the physical body one must eradicated sexual desire. If sexual desire is eradicated, the spiritual body grows and is born from inside the physical body and only then can one transcend life and death. This is my spoken truth, to treat it as idle chatter is a great mistake.
近有戒子，平日极有道念的人，忽因他出，募斋托钵，而行到一米铺化米。这铺内主人，心生欢喜，便请进内厅坐下，磕头献斋，又将碎银一钱，按放钵内。临出厅时，忽遇其妻，从廊而出，两下一见，其妻回避不及，戒子既见其妻，谢斋而去。夜间打坐，驰想其妻，摹其颜面，遂起一念，随即降伏，忏悔而卧。忽然梦见自己身死，又入胞胎，长成娶妻、颜色美好、夫妻和合。一日外出未归，忽见一道人，于路化斋，便生欢喜，同回至家内，磕头献斋。忽从廊下，唤妻出见。自此以后，时常供养。一日，遇见道人在室，与妻生淫，妻不俯从，道人强求。己心一见大怒，将斧直入，杀死道人。忽然身醒，心上嗔恨，忿忿不平。忽记梦中淫妻之道人面目，即日间米铺主人；其妻，即如米铺廊下相遇之妇也。浑身汗流，通前打算，立刻回心，自忏自悔。
Those closest to the precepts, in ordinary times were mostly people who followed the Way. There was a monk who went about it despite the consequences of begging food in a small bowls. One day he walked meter by meter he passed by a shop. The shopkeeper had joy in his heart and asked the monk to come inside and sit. He bowed and offered the monk some vegetarian fare. He parted with a silver piece as he threw it into the begging bowl. While he was tending the kitchen, the shopkeeper had forgotten to attend to his wife, who came out onto the veranda. The monk and the mans’ wife saw each other before she was able to withdraw. He thanked the man for his food and donation and left. At night while meditating, his thoughts ran away to this man’s wife, recreating her face. As soon as this thought arose he immediately subdued it and lay in repentance. Immediately in a dream he saw the death of his body and the reentrance into the world from a fetus. The boy grows to be a man who takes a wife of the utmost beauty. One day the man goes out and bumps into a Taoist begging for food along the road. He’s won over with joy, and invites the Taoist back to their home to bow and make offerings, when his wife emerges from the veranda. After this experience he makes many offerings. One day he comes home to find the Taoist in his room making a forceful advance on his wife who hasn’t consented. The man is being is insistent. Her heart sees his anger so she grabs a hatchet and kills the Taoist. The monk suddenly awoke from his dream with anger in his heart and felt aggrieved. He wrote down a description of the wife whom the Taoist had lusted after in his dream. That day he saw the shopkeepers wife, who looked just like the wife of the man he’d become in his dream. His whole body began to perspire, he immediately turned to his heart and repented.
大众，这个戒子，初学功夫，戒行虽坚，定力未固，所以日见夜思，忽生妄念，妄念一动，入梦成境, 境中即现，报应分明。 大众，淫念在心，梦中尚且偿还，何况行出淫恶之事，来生岂不受报?
Everyone, look how this disciple begins to learn some skills. Even with strong vows, without the power of determination what he sees during the day turns to the fantasy of his nighttime dreams. When fantasy is active, dreaming becomes a mirror; a mirror which reflects the present with clear judgement. Everyone, lust of fantasy alone cannot be fixed in dreaming, let alone committing adulterous acts in the flesh. In the next life how can this not resurface?
又如一修行人，从来不出妄念，不生妄念，受人耻辱，心不怀藏，打不回拳，骂不回口，只思自不是，不认他人非。忽从路间，挑单而走，一驴驼米而来，将身让驴，驴忽用头撞入身边，仆倒在地，口扯衣袖，碎破而去。此人夜坐之间，境中即悟，往劫以前，曾变驴身，被人屠宰，死复为人，人复变驴，被我屠宰，我复转生，遂成屠户，杀牛为业。自此改悔，三世忏除，今复为人。
Be like a person who cultivates; don’t entertain the inception of fantasy to ensure it is never created, endure humiliation so the heart isn’t hidden within, when struck don’t return a punch, when cursed at they don’t yell back, accept fault and don’t look at others as being in the wrong. There was a man walking along the road with a stick. A mule approached him and as he stepped out of the way to make way for the it, the mule pushed him out of the way with its head, knocking him backwards to the ground it tore at his sleeve with it’s mouth, leaving his clothes in tatters. This man, while sitting that night, had an awakening, realizing that in his distant past he had been a mule who had been was brought to slaughter and returned to the world as a man,. The butcher who did the slaughter reemerged in the world in a mule’s body. So, if my life ends with slaughter, in my next life I will become a butcher, the result will be me slaughtering cows. Seeing this one can change ways, through repentance in the three realms and return in a human form.
此驴即前劫中被杀之牛。因嗔劫前，曾剥伊皮，故而扯袖碎破，嗔怒而去，随即存想，自身为牛，受驴变人，持刀剥皮，种种疼苦，心怀报复。从此解脱，两冤和释，永不生嗔，世世相逢，同修大道。次夜忽梦白衣人谢之曰：“我即前日路上之驴，于往劫中，曾结冤报。今蒙偿还，又蒙和解，两相解脱，从此脱苦，复生人中，特来告知。可至某处相会，乃求超度。”言毕而去。次日即依梦言，寻至某处，其家欢喜，似有好事，访问旁人，皆言此家夜来生一孩儿。修行人大加惊恐，暗记姓名，誓愿自度，然后度人。大众，只因此人往劫冤根，今生了结，故此自己发心，辱怨苦难，一切承受，降服此心。
This donkey, in it’s past, had the misfortune of being a butcher of cows. The reason for its anger was that in the man’s past life he had peeled the skin off cows to make leather, therefore the mule rent the man’s clothes. When anger is dispelled through having this realization, one sees their own body as that of the cow, the donkey becomes a human whose skin is being flayed, and enduring so much pain it’s heart is filled with thoughts of retaliation.
大众，你们须要手持戒刀，锋芒光亮，只杀自己，莫杀他人，身披忍字，即如铠甲，逢人打骂耻辱，以至王法刑伤，官事口舌，雷打火烧，水淹贼劫，狼衔虎咬，虫残病毒，横言屈语，恶口谤言，败坏声名，毁坏事物，割截身体，害我性命，总系往因，定劫难逃，只可安心承受，顺天合道，偿还夙债，再莫生心，报怨嗔恨，自生不服之念。？
Everyone, you all must use the blade of precept, with its luminous edge, to kill only yourself, never others. Wrap your body in endurance like armor, to meet people who are as scornful and berating as the punishments dictated by the laws of kings, or the disputes of the government, who are as calamitous as lightning sparking a fire or the flooding of water, as the wolf and the tigers bite, as insects destroy and diseases poison; to meet them when they speak sideways with evil language, emit slanderous words from evil mouths which ruin reputations, destroy objects and cut apart bodies. When your life is thus assaulted, always connect to your intention and determination to be free from this suffering. Only a peaceful mind can support it, following heaven and joining the Dao, repaying debts, creating no more the intention of grumbling in anger. Generate the idea to not submit.
且宜回想，我受他欺者，毕竟我曾欺人，受他困者，我曾困他。遭刑遭难，遭害遇灾，悉因前生，自作自受。从前恶孽，随心消散。自然六欲不生，三毒消灭，身心轻健，情性安和，苦恼痊平，冤仇和解。无始以前，至于今日，凡有冤债，只愿偿还，损己利他，方为解脱。永归清净，不生不灭，圆满报身。不然前劫之债负不肯还他，今生之耻辱不肯让他，来世之报复自然不肯放你了也。此身如何得度，此心如何得空，此道如何得修？些儿言语，尚且不能忍，这生死到头，安能解脱？
For the time being, think back. I’ve enduring his deceit, but in the end I’ve deceived him; by enduring his trap, I’ve trapped him. Meeting with the punishment and misfortune, with the fire and disaster that all come before birth, one must endure their own actions. Despite having committed evils, when one seeks to dissipate them, the six desires naturally do not arise, the three poisons disappear, the body and heart are light and healthy. The emotions and temper are calm and peaceful. Anxiety has been leveled, enmity has been reconciled. From time immemorial to this day there is a debt of injustice in this world, a debt only paid through willingness to subdue oneself for the benefit of others. With the purpose of liberation, seek eternal refuge in peace and stillness, where nothing is created and nothing destroyed, perfection of life. Otherwise the ancient debt cannot never repaid, the humiliations of this life will not permit it, the retaliations of the afterlife naturally cannot free you. How can this body achieve deliverance, how can this heart achieve emptiness, how can this Way achieve cultivation? Being unable to endure even a few scornful words, how true liberating peace be attained in just the time between birth and death?
大众，忍则无明火灭，自然五脏清净。忍则华池水生，自然六腑调泰。忍则他心满足，自然反悔和平。忍则我量包涵，自然胸襟阔大。辱我者，我不以为辱，其辱反归他人。辱人者，人受其辱，必以辱报于己。忍辱则心平气和，肝火不生，化作青华救苦。忍辱则心神慈善，化作南斗消灾。忍辱则肺液不枯，化作瑶池甘露。忍辱则肾精不耗，化变气海灵泉。忍辱则脾土不燥，化作五行正气，戊已刀圭自产。忍辱则法身不漏，化作庄严妙相，光明正大现前。能忍于国者，必有益有朝廷。能忍于家者，必有益于骨肉。能忍于身者，必有益于精神。能忍于心者，必有益于性命。能忍于教者，必有益于法眷。能忍则能受益，不能忍则心不虚，神不灵，气不壮，量不大，胸不开，功不圆，行不满，见不透，思不深，智慧小，福德浅，根基薄；闻道不明，行道有碍，为人憎嫌，为人嫉妒，为人厌恶，为人烦恼，为人贱慢，幽有鬼责，明有王法，多劫之冤根还在，来生之报复越深；苦海照旧生波，欲河依然起浪，就是旁门邪道，不过修罗魔鬼，劫数一来，依然受报。
Everyone, enduring this anger, the fire will be extinguished; the five organs will become still and pure. Endure the flowering pond of life and the six viscera naturally become harmonious. Endure the satisfaction of heart and naturally repentance will bring back peace. Endure your capacity to forgive, and your vision will naturally broaden. When I am humiliated, I do not see it as shameful; humiliation will find its way back from whence it came. People who disgrace others, whose humiliations are endured, thereby bear humiliation themselves. By tolerating disgrace one’s heart is calm and energy is peaceful, the fire of the liver doesn’t grow and one is magnificently rescued from bitterness. Enduring humiliation makes mind and spirit benevolent, becoming like the Southern Dipper which prevents calamity. By tolerating disgrace the fluids of the lungs don’t dry up, but become the “Jasper Lake” of sweet dew (甘露). By tolerating disgrace the essence of the kidneys isn’t wasted and it becomes a spiritual spring within an ocean of energy. By tolerating disgrace the soils of the spleen aren’t dried up, and become a healthy energy of five elements. By tolerating disgrace the spiritual body doesn’t leak, and it becomes a wonderful and dignified body, just and honorable from thereon. For the country to endure it must provide a benefit to the dynasty. For a family to endure it must benefit its constituents, its flesh and bones. For the body to endure, it must serve the vital essence. For the heart to endure it must support life and destiny. For a teaching and religions to endure, they must be subservient to the universal law. Being able to endure generates this advantage, while being unable to endure hearts aren’t emptied, spirits are unholy, energy isn’t strong, potentials aren’t great, chests don’t open, achievements aren’t complete, cultivations are unfulfilled, sight isn’t penetrating, thoughts aren’t deep, wisdom is small, happiness and virtue are shallow, foundations are weak. One hears of the way without understanding, and finds obstructions when trying to walk the path. One treats others with disrespect and enmity, jealousy, hatred and anxiety. In the dark world are punishing demons, in the light is the universal law. Many traumas of regret and agitation are preserved, and when the next life comes the repercussions are increasingly deep. In the sea of bitterness waves roll as before, in the river of desire breakers still rise. Here is the depravity of entering side doors, unable to surpass devils and demons one’s fate is repeated; unmitigated suffering.
大众，你既不肯忍人之辱，谁肯忍你之辱？你既不肯，他人又不肯，岂不生生相报，刦刦相争，屡世含冤，多身受苦，无有了期。大众，你们听着，皇天无亲，惟德是辅。岂不闻有容德乃大。德者本也，财者末也。你们大众之中，贤愚不等，也有重财丧德者，也有重德轻财者。争财是不忍辱之一端，色气总如此同论。
Everyone, if you aren’t willing to endure humiliation, who can do it for you? If you aren’t willing others are even less willing. So won’t there be retribution, life after life, recurring aggression and fighting? Over and again in this world these wrongs are suffered endured by so many bodies, perpetually. Everyone, listen well. In the highest heaven, virtue is your only aid. Isn’t it heard that greatness comes by possessing virtue? Virtue is a foundation, riches are but dust. Look at yourselves in the midst of all life, there is no difference between the wise and foolish; weighing wealth heavily brings immorality and weighing virtue heavily detaches one from the burdens of wealth. Striving for riches is a phase of the inability to endure humiliation. Sexuality follows the exact same principle.
若财不苟取，还是本分，当行而已，不足为奇，独是舍己之财与人，当取不取，宁失于辱，不失于薄德，宁可损己，不肯损人，损之又损，亦非额外，方是财星空彻。看破淫机，不生嗔心，以妾赠他，不相抱怨，方为色心空彻。一切能忍，一切能受，不为荣而生喜心，不为辱而生嗔心。不任一切色声香味触法，一切眼耳鼻舌身意，一切山河大地，一切草木昆虫，而生其心，则智光朗出，法身圆成。忍辱之功，是名降伏。人能降伏其心者，可仙可佛，可圣可贤。不能降伏其心者，可鬼可魔，可妖可畜。此等人，无明窟烈火未消，黑地狱油锅正沸，一团冤孽，三世恶因，多劫多生，不能明道，深可哀悯。
If riches cannot be neglected one plays the same role and behaves as always with nothing changing. Sacrifice riches to support others, view gain as no gain, stay calm through loss and humiliation, don’t lose any virtue, peacefully endure decrease while not seeking to hurt others. Doing harm creates harm and more negativity as well. Releasing riches opens the heavens. Look beyond the pivot of covetousness, do not arise anger in the heart, continually repel it, do not argue and see through the emptiness of lust. Endure everything, persevere through it all, don’t let glory bring happiness, nor disgrace arouse anger, Hold no stock in any sound, smell, taste or touch, nor in any eye, ear, nose, tongue, body or intention, not in any mountain river or the earth itself, not in any plant, tree or insect. Foster this in your heart and as wisdom puts forth a light the dharma body is completed. The achievement of enduring disgrace is known as subduing. If people can subdue their hearts they become immortals and sages. If they cannot they may become ghosts and demons. The infernal ignorance of this type of person is inextinguishable, scorching and boiling them in the dark underworld, conforming to the single amalgam which is the source of misfortune within the three realms; the disaster of life ignorant of the way, so deeply pitiable.
大众，急须猛省，早除人我相，急悟生死因。忍辱降嗔火，空中现法身。七情随念灭，万福身心存，罪孽偿还净，方为劫外人。
Everyone, you must hurry to awake, to quickly get rid of ideas of self and others, quickly awaken to the causes of life and death. Endure disgrace; subdue the fires of anger, to see the true body at the center of emptiness. When the seven emotions are extinguished there follows a great fortune which exists in the body and heart. Repay wrongdoings completely, to become a person who exists outside of suffering.
