1.77
「夫人得善利,乃來自歸佛,
是故當晝夜,常念佛法眾。
己知自覺意,是為佛弟子,
常當晝夜念,佛與法及眾。
念身念非常,念戒布施德,
空不願無想,晝夜當念是。」
“The man who takes refuge in Buddha, this is the man who obtains real advantage. Night and day, therefore, he ought ever to reflect on Buddha, the Law and the Church. Being thus truly enlightened, this man is a disciple of Buddha. Thus reflecting continually on the three Treasures, and on impermanency, and his own body, reflecting on moral duty, on charity, on the emptiness of all things around him, and their unreality (without marks), these are subjects for consideration.”
