萬象遷異似川流，機緣巧合太難值；
遲疑一起情勢改，縱知回頭不復昔！
跋
世間聚散，道上行止，同屬無常，川流不息。巧合難值，信純方契；猜疑一起，格格不入。情景俱改，欲續無由；縱知反顧，無猜不復！

最敬愛的師佛﹐
可否請師佛在《浴塘游詠》的詩集中的扉頁及末頁加上師佛的〝四無量心”及〝願文〞迴向﹖另有以下幾首﹐也請求師佛的墨寶。
F0715深寂、F0233深心結緣、F0981真情、F1044欲休還語、F1112靜、F1137稍縱即逝、F1165苦口、F1175揀擇。
F1137 稍縱即逝
很多時候﹐機會只在一霎那﹐錯過了再也不復返。因緣也因種種的條件而改變﹐難得有學佛的因緣﹐真要好好把握﹐否則誰能保證下一世還有機緣修習佛法呢﹖
弟子綿延 頂禮

Fleeting Windows of Opportunity Yutang Lin
All phenomena evolve and transform as a river flows.
Opportune opportunities are too difficult to come by.
Hesitation due to suspicion would change the situation.
Even if redeemed later, no longer the same as before!
Comment:
Gathering or dispersing in worldly matters, proceeding or stopping on the Dharma path, all are impermanent, just as a river flows incessantly. Matching concurrences are rare to come by, only pure faith could sustain them. As soon as suspicion arises, no communion in any way. Both feelings and situations had changed, no means to continue. Even though later one might learn to reflect, Alas! Suspicion-free no more!
