如何作莲池自在人
How To Become [A] Lotus Pond’s Easeful Person
要作莲池自在人，
娑婆肯更惹红尘？
心神早送归安养，
此地空余镜里身。
净土宗十二彻悟大师
《彻悟大师遗集》
[If you] want [to] become [a] lotus pond’s easeful person [in Pure Land], [in this] Sahā World, how can [there be] even more attracting [of] red dust? [With your] mind’s consciousness earlier sent, [for] ‘return’ [to the Land Of] Peaceful Nurturing, [in] this land [be free and] empty, like [a] body inside [a] mirror.
