Praise in Salutation to Wrathful Protectors
Yutang Lin
Out of compassion for sentient beings, protecting the right Dharma
Eager to safeguard and protect, real feelings revealed
Hating not to exterminate all demons at one stroke
In spite of wrathful appearance that would scare people off
Angry eyes wide open, hairs shooting up
Bloody mouth with sharp fangs, swallowing all devils
If one sees appearances as not the real situation
Only then will one comprehend that angry face was born of caring heart
