　　若過是偶發，有情性仁賢，則瞋亦非理；如瞋煙蔽空

　　41. Disregarding the principle of cause, such as a stick and the like, if I become angry with the one who impels it, then it is better if I hate hatred, because that person is also impelled by hatred.

　　棍杖所傷人，不應瞋使者；枚複瞋使故，理應憎其瞋。

　　42. In the past, I too have inflicted such pain on sentient beings; therefore, I, who have caused harm to sentient beings, deserve that in return.

　　我昔于有情，曾作如是害；既曾傷有情，理應受此損。

　　43. Both his weapon and my body are causes of suffering. He has obtained a weapon, and I have obtained a body. With what should I be angry

　　敵器與我身，二皆致苦因；雙出器與身，于誰該當瞋？

　　44. Blinded by craving, I have obtained this boil that appears as a human body, which cannot bear to be touched. When there is pain, with whom should one be angry

　　身似人形瘡，輕觸苦不堪；盲目我愛執，遭損誰當瞋？

　　45. I do not desire suffering; yet, fool that I am, I desire the cause of suffering. When suffering emerges due to my own fault, why should I be angry with anyone else

　　愚夫不欲苦，偏作諸苦因；既由己過害，豈能憎于人？

　　46. Just as the forest of razor leaves and the birds of hell are brought into existence by my actions, so is this. With whom should I be angry

　　譬如地獄卒，及諸劍葉林，既由己業生，于誰該當瞋？

　　47. Those who hurt me are impelled by my actions, as a result of which they will go to the infernal realms. Surely, it is I alone who have ruined them.

　　宿業所引發，令他損惱我，因此若墮獄，豈非我害他？

　　48. On account of them, many vices of mine diminish through forbearance. On account of me, they enter infernal realms with long lasting agonies.

　　依敵修忍辱，消我諸多罪；怨敵因我忍，墮獄久受苦。

　　49. It is I alone who harm them, and they are my benefactors. O Wicked mind, why do you misconstrue this and become angry

　　若我令受害，敵反饒益我，則汝粗暴心， 何故反瞋彼？

　　50. If there is virtue in my intention, I will not enter the infernal realms. If I protect myself, what will happen to them here

　　若我有功德，必不墮地獄。若吾自守護，則彼何所得？

　　51. If I were to retaliate, they would not be protected and my conduct would be impaired. Because of that, those in anguish would be lost.

　　若以怨報怨，則敵不護罪；吾行將退失，難行亦毀損。

　　52. Because of its immateriality, the mind can never be harmed by anyone. However, due to its attachment to the body, the mind is tormented by suffering.

　　心意無形體，誰亦不能毀；若心執此身，定遭諸苦損。

　　53. Neither contempt, abusive speech, nor disgrace harms the body. Why then, mind, O mind, do you become angry

　　輕蔑語粗鄙，口出惡言辭，于身既無害，心汝何故瞋？

　　54. Will the unkindness of others toward me devour me in this life or another, that I am so adverse to it

　　謂他不喜我；然彼于現後，不能毀損我，何故厭譏毀？

　　55. If I am adverse to it because it hinders my material gain, my acquisitions will vanish in this life, but my sin will surely remain.

　　謂礙利養故；縱我厭受損，吾利終須舍，諸罪則久留。

　　56. It is better that I die today, than have a long, corrupt life. For even after living a long time, I shall have the suffering of death.

　　甯今速死殁，不願邪命活；苟安縱久住，終必遭死苦。

　　57. One person wakes up after enjoying a hundred years of pleasure in sleep, and another person wakes up after being happy for a moment.

　　夢受百年樂，彼人複蘇醒；或受須臾樂，夢已此人覺；

　　58. Does happiness return to either once they have awakened

　　 It is the same at the moment of death for one who lives a long time and for one who lives a short time.

　　覺已此二人，夢樂皆不還。壽雖有長短，臨終唯如是！

　　59. Even though I have acquired many possessions and have enjoyed pleasures for a long time, I shall depart empty handed and naked as if I had been robbed.

　　設得多利養，長時享安樂，死如遭盜劫，赤裸空手還。

　　60. What if I destroy vice and perform virtue while living off my acquisitions

　　 Do vice and the destruction of virtue not occur for one who gets angry on account of material gains

　　謂利能活命，淨罪並修福；然爲利養瞋，福盡惡當生。

　　61. If the meaning of my life vanishes, then what is the point of a life that creates only non-virtue

　　若爲塵俗活，複因彼退墮，唯行罪惡事，苟活義安在？

　　62. If you think that your hatred toward one who disparages you is because he dries away sentient beings, why does your anger not arise a…
