+萬境一轍 原無地着箇窮通\\
+萬物一體 原無處分箇彼我，\\
+世人 迷真逐妄 乃向坦途上 自說一坎坷，\\
+從空洞中 自築一籓籬 良足慨哉。
+All lands share a single way\\
+ and never were some closed and some clear;\\
+All creation is but one\\
+ and never was there a divide 'twixt you and me.\\
+Yet the world, truth-tricked and chasing phantasms,\\

+休徵景福 多集寬洪長厚之家 何須瑣瑣。
+Great works and vast plans always stem \\

+ there is no need to be so urgent and busy.\\

+ flock to homes of extensive, abundant generosity;\\
+ so why be small-minded and petty?

+貧士肯濟人 纔是性天中惠澤，\\
+鬧場能學道 方爲心地上功夫。
+When the virtuous poor delight in giving aid,\\
+ that is a boon from Heaven-given nature indeed.\\
+When the Way is sought in cacophony and tumult,\\
+ surely the work builds on the bedrock of the soul.
