本端竟何從 起滅有無際
一微涉動境 成此頹山勢
或想更相乘 觸理自生滯
因緣雖無主 開途非一世
時無悟宗匠 誰將握玄契
來問尚悠悠 相與期暮歲

"From what, after all, does the fundamental origin arise?
Arising and ceasing, being and non-being are boundless.
A single subtle particle touches the realm of motion,
Forming the momentum of this collapsing mountain.
Or perhaps thoughts mount upon one another,
Encountering the principle, entanglements naturally arise.
Although causes and conditions lack a master,
The paths opened do not span a single generation.
In an age without a master who awakens to the principle,
Who will grasp the profound agreement?
Your incoming inquiry is still far-reaching;
Let us meet together in our twilight years."
