往昔所造諸惡業,
皆由無始貪瞋癡;
從身語意之所生,
一切我今皆懺悔。
|
|
All evil karma I did in the past,
Came from beginningless greed, anger, and delusion,
And was made by my body, mouth and mind.
I now repent of it all and reform.
|
|
|
|
彌天大罪,一懺便消。
|
|
Great offenses which fill the heavens
Are eradicated by a single thought of repentance.
|
|
|
|
罪從心起將心懺,
心若滅時罪亦亡;
心亡罪滅兩俱空,
是則名為真懺悔。
|
|
Offenses arise from the mind, and must be repented in the mind.
When thoughts are gone, offenses also disappear.
With thoughts forgotten and offenses gone, both become empty.
That is called true repentance and reform.

君子之過也,
如日月之蝕焉。
過也,人皆見之;
更也,人皆仰之。 |
|
A superior person's error
is like a solar or lunar eclipse
which is seen by all.
If he immediately corrects it,
everyone looks up to him.
|

|
|
人非聖賢,孰能無過;
過而能改,善莫大焉。
|
|
People aren't sages or worthies─
Who can be without faults?
To courageously correct one's faults
Is the greatest good of all.
