27.35

Now that we each know that supreme virtue has its refuge, that the heterodox and the orthodox lead to different paths, that good and evil part their ways, and that ordinary beings and sages are kept separate on their roads; having fortunately come to have faith in cause and effect, to awaken to impermanence, to follow the flow of wisdom, and to enter the true path—all the worthy ones can lament that which is unrecoverable as it flows upon the river, awaken to the silent passing of time at the turn of an arm, grieve over the endlessness of arising and ceasing, and long for the eternal bliss of the pure Self. All of us have already looked up to [the Buddha's] customs, taken in his transformation, severed attachments, and renounced glory; how could we not be filled with reverent dread and increase our utmost sincerity, competing between our physical bodies and our lifespans? Therefore, one ought to make one's nature pure and harmonious, have pity and compassion for all embodied beings, maintain an equal mind to rescue them, bestow the Dharma as a gift, not violate, not take, never refuse what is sought, constantly set one's intent on the Mahāyāna, and have inner and outer accord with each other. This is called the fully endowed and pure gate of crossing over.
