Language
Classical Chinese

1.52

「如人在岐路,疑惑無所趣,
諸法實相中,疑亦復如是。
疑故不勤求,諸法之實相。
見疑從癡生,惡中之惡者。
善不善法中,生死及涅槃,
定實真有法,於中莫生疑。
汝若懷疑惑,死王獄吏縛,
如師子搏鹿,不能得解脫。
在世雖有疑,當隨喜善法,
譬如觀岐道,利好者應逐。」

"Just as a person at a crossroads
is confused and has nowhere to turn,
in the true mark of all phenomena,
doubt is also like this.
Because of doubt, one does not diligently seek
the true mark of all phenomena.
See that doubt arises from delusion;
it is the most evil of evils.
Among wholesome and unwholesome phenomena,
saṃsāra and Nirvāṇa,
there are definitely, truly real phenomena;
do not give rise to doubt among them.
If you harbor doubt,
you will be bound by the prison wardens of the King of Death,
like a deer seized by a lion,
unable to attain liberation.
Though having doubts while in the world,
one should rejoice in wholesome dharmas,
just as when looking at branching roads,
one should follow the beneficial and good one."
