Returning to Speechlessness

Yutang Lin

Not interested in meddling, why need to bring it up?
In light of the Dharma, staying close or away chosen.
Superficial activities increase karmic hindrances.
To escape transmigration, be careful and diligent!

Comment:

Accepting the evolution of causes and conditions, no need to argue or explain. Which way to continue or follow could only be decided in accordance with the spirit of the Dharma from a long term point of view. Activities that fall within the circle of worldly ways could only increase karmic hindrances. Earnest in trying to escape transmigration, one should be careful in one’s speeches and activities, and diligently engage in Dharma practices.
