承担 林钰堂
弘法劝化如开垦,耕耘灌溉年复年;
自愿承担续慧命,明知艰苦勇向前。
跋
弘法劝化若开荒,泥泞粗重无从辞。若待轻易方参预,何来机缘可利生?

Propagating the Dharma is like cultivating land;
Plowing, weeding and irrigating year after year.
Willingly undertaken to continue wisdom lives;
Realizing its difficulty still step boldly forward.
Comment:
Conveying Buddhist teachings to people is like cultivating land; dirt, mud and heavy jobs are unavoidable. If one would engage in Dharma services only when the load is light and easy to handle, then when will the opportunity arise to benefit sentient beings?
