不為相拘 林鈺堂 簡繁轉換 - 繁體

辨識難免即受限,心局感觸無所展;
觀相如幻恆遷化,一體不忘出拘泥。

當下感官之覺知往往在不知不察中局限吾人之心量。若能時常提醒自己:「一切覺受不斷遷變而無以執取;一切本來同體而無限開闊」,則有可能漸漸達到不為表相所拘束的清明及輕鬆。

Unbound by Perception Yutang Lin

Differentiation could hardly avoid yielding limitations.
Mind confined by perceptions has no windows to open.
Comprehend forms as illusive and constantly changing;
Limitless-oneness would guide one to escape from mire.

Comment:

Current perception would limit the scope of one's mind in subtle and unnoticeable ways. If one could remind oneself often that, all sensations are constantly evolving and hence could not be grasped, and that all things are originally in limitless oneness, then it would be possible to gradually achieve tranquility and relaxation beyond the confinement of appearances.
