1.39
若論無相施 功德極難量
行悲濟貧乏 果報不須望
凡夫情行劣 初且略稱揚
欲知檀貌狀 如空遍十方
If one speaks of giving without marks,
The merit is exceedingly difficult to measure.
Practicing compassion to relieve the destitute,
One need not look for a karmic reward.
Ordinary beings have inferior dispositions and practices,
So at first [the Buddha] merely praised it briefly.
If you wish to know the appearance of dāna,
It is like space pervading the ten directions.
