- 一水贯通五湖四海 一月普照万国九州 一雨滋润山川草木 一雷觉醒大地群迷 一理贯通千差万别 一言决断古今犹豫 一心广含十方虚空 一念慈悲众生受益(一水貫通五湖四海 一月普照萬國九州 一雨滋潤山川草木 一雷覺醒大地群迷 一理貫通千差萬別 一言決斷古今猶豫 一心廣含十方虛空 一念慈悲眾生受益) One water flows through all rivers and seas. One moon shines on all kingdoms and continents. One rain nourishes a mountain's rivers, grass, and trees. One thunder awakens the confused minds of the whole land. One principle mastered makes all the difference. One final call puts an end to all doubts. One all-embracing mind: the vast emptiness. One thought of compassion benefits all beings.
