12 Famous Verses For Deep Concentration – 7 – 十二时颂- 晡时申

aaa 

Late Afternoon: 1500-1700 Hours

To practice shall firstly not dislike being poverty.

All phenomena are independent arising.

Since of formless, why need to implement any form of truth.

Attempting to purify is totally wasting of energy.

Do not recognize ignorance as your close neighborhood.

Talking with no desire, has no permanent residence.

Temporary just call me a Monk.
(7 of 12 verses, by Ancient Chinese Monk Zi-Gong, Liang Dynasty)     

十二时颂晡时申
学道先须不厌贫。

有相本来权积聚。

无形何用要安真。

作净洁,却劳神。

莫认愚痴作近邻。

言下不求无处所。

暂时唤作出家人。
