13.11

「弟子等!已懺三途等報,今當復次稽懇懺悔人天餘報。相與稟此閻浮壽命,雖曰百年滿者無幾,於其中間盛年夭枉其數無量,但有眾苦煎迫形心,愁憂恐怯未曾暫離。如此皆是善根微弱惡業滋多,致使現在心有所為皆不稱意,當知悉是過去已來惡業餘報。是故,弟子!今日至誠歸依佛。

We disciples! Having already repented of the retributions of the three miserable realms and the like, should now further bow our heads in earnest and repent of the residual retributions among humans and devas. Having together received this life span in Jambudvīpa, though it is said to be one hundred years, few reach its full term; within that span, those cut down in the prime of youth are immeasurable in number. There is only the multitude of sufferings tormenting body and mind; grief, worry, fright, and dread are never absent for even a moment. All this is due to our roots of goodness being feeble and our evil karma abundant, causing whatever our minds undertake in the present to fail to accord with our wishes; one should know that all this is the residual retribution of evil karma accumulated from the past. Therefore, we disciples today take refuge in the Buddha with utmost sincerity.
