自愿舍执　林钰堂

私执难放不愿抛，深陷迷宫害自他；
修久乐于无所著，任运成办救渡事。

跋

执着难舍而不愿放，因为尚未认清自我局限之偏失、误导及祸害。修行久了，体会到：执消愈彻底，不可思议的境界及功效愈多愈明显，而自愿舍执、放掉成见，以便能以清新的心地任一切流过。如此，于无造作中，渡生的事业却不断兴起及圆成。

Willingly Renounce Attachments　Yutang Lin

Self-centered grasping is difficult to let go and unwilling to give up.
Deeply trapped in labyrinth of mind is damaging to one and others.
After long practices of Dharma one enjoys no attachment to matters.
Salvation activities gained accomplishment without prearrangement.

Comment:

One's grasping is difficult to renounce and unwilling to let go because one has not recognized clearly that self-limitation is biased, misleading and damaging to oneself and others. After long years of devoted Dharma services one realizes that, the more thorough the eradication of one's attachments the more occurrences of and the more distinctive are inconceivable supernatural experiences and salvation functions. Therefore, one voluntarily renounces grasping and ceases to hold pre-established views so that one may allow all things to flow through a fresh and clear mind. Thus, in the absence of contrivances, salvation activities naturally and incessantly arise and become accomplished.
