超乎人力　林鈺堂

冤冤相報何時了？血債血償還不清；
看穿人力難挽回，仰賴佛恩常祈禱。

跋

世間種種鬥爭、戰亂，循環報復，無從休止。人力誠然有限；縱使有心企盼，惜乎尚未見和平降臨。幸而經由修行體驗得知佛、菩薩之加被，真實不虛。因此經常為世界和平及一切眾生之離苦得樂，而不斷祈禱。

Beyond Human Efforts　Yutang Lin

An eye for an eye, when will the recycle end?
Blood debt, blood payback; wouldn't balance.
Seeing clearly that it is beyond human efforts,
One turns to Buddha for help through prayers.

Comment:

In the world there are all sorts of fighting and wars; recycling of revenges could not be stopped. Human endeavors are rather limited. Even though with all best intentions we hope to realize peace on earth, unfortunately it remains a matter to be dreamed of. Fortunately, through Dharma practices we have experienced the blessing of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Therefore, we know that we can rely on their help. Consequently, I pray constantly to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas for world peace and the ultimate liberation of all sentient beings.
