### [3.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2076.3.8)

師壽於百歲　八十而造非  
為近至尊故　熏修而入道  
雖具少智慧　而多有彼我  
所見諸賢等　未嘗生珍敬  
二十年功德　其心未恬靜  
聰明輕慢故　而獲至於此  
得王不敬者　當感果如是  
自今不疎怠　不久成奇智  
諸聖悉存心　如來亦復爾

> Master, you have lived to one hundred years, / Yet for eighty you committed errors. / Because you were near to the most venerable, / You practiced and entered the Way. / Though you possess a little wisdom, / You have much self and other; / Toward all the worthies you have seen, / You have never produced cherish and respect. / In twenty years of merit, / Your mind has not been tranquil and calm. / Because of cleverness and arrogance, / You have come to this result. / That you received the king's disrespect / Must bring about a fruition such as this. / From now on, if you are not negligent or idle, / Before long you will achieve extraordinary wisdom. / All sages preserve this in mind; / The Tathāgata is also like this.
