剩人和尚像
Portrait of Saintly Monk
未言先契,未舉先知,掉得便行,頂天立地。且道是阿誰?就是這個頑皮兒。我當時囑付汝緊收拾,直入千峰萬峰去。汝不依吾言,惹出許多葛藤。雖然,卻因風吹火,希慈雲兮洒甘露。咦,看來一味信前緣,留與三韓作鼻祖。
Before a word is spoken, there is already resonance; before an action is taken, there is already knowing. Once you drop all attachments, you can act freely, standing tall between heaven and earth. Who is this? It is this playful, stubborn one. Back then, I urged you to carefully pack up and head straight into the countless peaks—peak after peak. But you did not follow my words, and so you stirred up so many tangled vines. Even so, this is like using the wind to start a fire; may the merciful clouds shower sweet rain. Ah, it seems everything is just following preordained conditions—so I leave this to the three Korean kingdoms, to be their founding teacher.
