Therefore, one’s words should be trustworthy, and one’s actions must be prompted by utmost reverence.
We should treat others with sincerity, teach them with earnestness, and observe the rules of courtesy with caution. Whenever things don’t go our way, we should seek the problem within ourselves.
We should get rid of selfish motives and embrace a public spirit.
Above, we should emulate the Buddha’s of the ten directions, embodying great kindness toward those with whom we have no affinities.
We should universally save all living beings so they can together escape the wheel of suffering and accomplish the Buddha way.
Below we should be mindful of our kin within the three evil destinies, who are still undergoing retribution for their offenses in the unintermittenet hell.
Quickly we should rescue and pull out our relatives and friends so that they all leave the realms of ghosts and hells, and together certify to Bodhi.
We should always maintain this resolve, and make firm our practices and vows, if we haven’t reached this goal, we vow to never rest.
Hence as a means to decisively fulfill our vows, we should proceed to establish virtue of character.
