四明尊者教行錄 7.65

7.65

The Way is aroused through achievement; / Transformation is applied through practice. / His insight left behind guidance; / His understanding left behind standards. / Believers arose in reverence; / Students arose to follow. / From afar they listened to his models; / Up close they observed his deportment. / Echoes and shadows tallied with one another; / What was heard and seen hastened together. / His virtue was so lush! / His teaching was so abundant! / Manifesting accordance with the world / Resided in what he expressed; / Transmitting to successive descendants / Resided in whom they took as Master.
