智者以慧鍊心。尋究諸垢。猶如鑛鐵。數入百鍊。則成精金。猶如大海。日夜沸動。則成大寶。人亦如是。晝夜役心不止。便獲果證。

'The wise smelt the mind with wisdom, thoroughly examining all defilements. Just as iron ore repeatedly subjected to a hundred smeltings becomes refined gold, and just as the great ocean surging day and night produces great gems, so too with human beings: by unceasingly employing the mind day and night, they forthwith attain the realization of the fruit.'
