29.20

晡時申。學道先須不厭貧。有相本來權積聚。無形何用要安真。作淨潔却勞神。莫認愚癡作近隣。言下不求無處所。暫時喚作出家人。

At late afternoon, the hour of shen: / To study the Way, one must first not detest poverty. / Physical form is originally a provisional accumulation; / What need is there to install truth upon the formless? / Contriving purity exhausts the spirit; / Do not recognize ignorance as a close neighbor. / Under the words not seeking and without location, / Temporarily one is called a renunciant.
