大公無私＿Great Impartiality without Self

因緣聚散似浪潮，大公無私契真智；
稍參造作生窒礙，心機停息易圓成。

跋

因緣果報乃法界整體息息相關之運作，不可思議。有心造作，限於偏私，反而觸途成滯。若能絕私，不起心機之運作，則一切事情自然順從因緣果報而發展，易於契合佛陀之真智，而圓成菩提事業。

Great Impartiality without Self　 Yutang Lin

Meeting and dispersing of causes and conditions are like tidal waves;
Great impartiality without a trace of self accords with genuine wisdom.
Slightly mixed with artificiality would yield hindrance and suffocation;
Free from intentions and calculation it is readily accomplished.

Comment:

That causes and conditions lead to consequences is the inconceivable perpetual operation among all interrelated parts of the Dharmadhatu. Intentional maneuvers, limited by selfish bias, would run unexpectedly into stagnant situations. If selfishness could be eradicated to the extent that one is free from calculated motives, then things would unfold naturally in accordance with the law of causes and consequences, and readily meet the genuine wisdom of Buddha to accomplish Bodhi activities.
