27.196

The paths of life are not of a single principle; / The strands of consciousness are truly abundant. / In vain do people marvel at the wealth of Dongling; / Empty are their sighs for the poverty of the Northern Suburb. / Guosheng was once rebellious; / The son of Yan was truly benevolent. / Meeting with blame illuminates past karma; / Cultivating goodness converges in this body. / Diligent care brings eternal peace; / Idle ease ends in bitter toil. / Even if a fine name is deemed important, / How could it compare to planting good causes?
