法苑珠林 25.24

25.24

賢人軌宗度　弱喪升虛遷
師通資自發　神光照有緣
應變各殊別　聖錄同靈篇
乘乾因九五　逸響亮三千
法鼓振玄教　龍飛應人天
恬智冥徼妙　縹渺詠重玄
盤紆七七紀　嘉運莅中幡
挺此四八姿　映蔚華林園

The worthy one models the standard of deliverance,
While the lost and wandering ascend to higher spheres.
When the master's penetrations are spurred by his own impulse,
His divine radiance shines upon those with affinities.
Manifestations to accommodate beings are each distinct,
Yet the sacred records match the numinous scriptures.
Mounting the heavens by virtue of the supreme rank,
His resounding tone rings through the three-thousandfold world.
Striking the Dharma drum, he stirs the profound teaching;
Soaring like a dragon, he responds to humans and devas.
His tranquil wisdom merges with the subtle and profound;
Vaguely ethereal, he chants of the double mystery.
Winding across forty-nine cycles,
With auspicious fortune he presides over the central realm,
Displaying these four-and-eight marks
To shine brilliantly upon the Flower Grove Garden.
