六 祖 大 師 法 寶 壇 經
The Sixth Patriarch's Dharma Jewel Platform Sutra
般若品第二
色類自有道,各不相妨惱,
Each form has its own Path,
They do not hinder or trouble one another.
離道別覓道,終身不見道。
If you abandon the Way to seek a by-path,To the end of your days you'll never see the Way.
波波度一生,到頭還自懊,
A frantic passage through life,
Will end in bitter regret,
欲得見真道,行正即是道。
If you wish to discover the true Way—
Right practice is the Way.
自若無道心,闇行不見道,
If you do not have a mind for the Way,
You are stumbling in the dark; blind to the Way;
若真修道人,不見世間過。
Someone who truly walks the Way,
Is blind to the faults of the world.
若見他人非,自非卻是左,
If you point out others' faults,
Your fault-finding itself is a fault;
他非我不非,我非自有過。
Others' faults I do not fault,
As for my own faults, I blame myself.
但自卻非心,打除煩惱破,
Just get rid of the fault-finding attitude;
Once cast aside, the afflictions vanish;
憎愛不關心,長伸兩腳臥。
When attraction and aversion
no longer block the mind,
Stretch out both legs and lie down.
欲擬化他人,自須有方便,
If you hope to teach and transform others,You yourself must have the skillful means;
勿令彼有疑,即是自性現。
Do not raise doubts in others,
And their essential-nature will manifest by itself.
佛法在世間,不離世間覺,
The Buddha Dharma is right here in the world,There is no awakening apart from this world;
離世覓菩提,恰如求兔角。
To search for Bodhi somewhere beyond this world,Is like looking for a rabbit with antlers.
