How magnificent is the Great Sage! / His knowledge of all aspects is round and bright. / There is no obscurity He does not perceive, / Answering sounds like an echo. / Without relying on prolonged celebration, / Who would awaken and take refuge in sincerity? / The excellent Path is worthy of reverence, / Truly guiding confused living beings. / The evil waves of a hundred rivers / Are swallowed and merged into a single flavor. / Things involve taking and abandoning, / Yet the correct does not diminish or increase. / The eight perversions advance with sharpness; / Four alternatives contend over names. / Adorning the wrong, they confound it with the right; / Lowering the weighty, they make it light. / Under the blazing sun, ice melts; / When a gem is cast in, water clears. / Manifest and illustrious is the highest virtue, / Embodying the Path and dwelling in chastity. / Even if praise and blame are heaped upon it, / Renouncing glory, it remains unmoved. / Lofty are the fine and wise, / Dense and rich are their sentiments. / Awaiting all who possess clear insight / To determine this scale, / I briefly express what is troubled in heart / To present to the eminent.
