青山積雪峰,皞氣泛藍空。
虹霓飛鳥越,原草牧群生。
和光遊翠野,盛意起皇冥。
春天風普慶,山水鳥同鳴。
涓涓化大川,澯澯流芳境。
明觀萬有源,進邁新贏景。

The Four Sublimes
Truth Right Kindness Perseverance
Pursue the truth and take the right;
Do with kindness and progress with perseverance;
A live in life of holy and bright.
On that faraway of the horizontal line, one ship is faintly visible and slowly approaches to the seacoast, a passenger comes down and takes me go aboard the ship with smiling face, then the ship navigates serenely to the large ocean. Aboard the ship, we see the seagulls flying over the ocean, in the mean while; the pleasantly cool breeze blows and freshens my mind. The ocean, sky, and birds blended become a beautiful scenery.
We talk and do the project together harmoniously introduced by one of us, and full of indomitable spirit, they are very kind in helping each other and neither laugh nor look down at the less skill one because we know that kind is sublime of not bully but to have mercy and help others of what we can, and filial piety tops all kindness. Kindheartedness has consideration to one who is in need also has good nature and not to harm nor despise others, furthermore, it is a fount of happiness. Our works continue, and little by little shows everyone will be skillful, and can attain knowledge by experience and by effort. Knowledge is a hoarded wealth. Not to become arrogant with success, nor be discouraged by failure. In every failure, we will have the knowledge to be success. Besides, each one of us has strong and weak points. Everyone has their strengths and to progress is the essence. Suddenly, one of them says, "This is right, I will persist in doing this." but the other one says, "No, that's wrong, don't do that." In the mean time, I am thinking that which of them is right and which of them is wrong, after a moment, I have in mind of my own thought, that right is the word does not cause evil to others, right is the conclusion of the experiment confirmed objectively and by time, and right is also good, positive and rational of thought and act, moreover, perseverance is proper persistent determination in spite of difficulties, we shall make progress with perseverance in everything that are important to us with truth, right, and kindness, let them be the motive powers to impel our gear for best life. Finally we accomplished our works of making an art, all done well and each one has its own artistry, but no one's done perfect in every way, of a sudden, the aged terns approach and talk with the one who persisted in perfection a while ago and simultaneously to us, "Like us, we are free, but we can't do many things human can, human being and even the world is also the same, beauteous thing also always has defect, but if the defect can't affect the essence of the whole, they are able to complement with each other, and it is ethical, it's nice, always think the effect of what we are doing, the perfection is always in everyone's heart." then we all smile.
After a while, a lightning exists, a strong wind and deafening sound of thunder occur follow the lightning, the sky is full of darkness, a terrible storm comes. The wave strikes the ship, and most of us are in scare, but the captain reminds us, "Calm down, don't be panic, when the first time I aboard the ship, I met this condition too, that time, I was also full of fear, but the captain and my friend told me then that when we confront with difficulty, if we are afraid of or in ruffle, we will do the things worse, we should find the way to make it better, and not to be in confusion, therefore if we are calm and be patient, and in order of searching and doing the right things, there is hope." After we heard what the captain told us, it recalled us that brace up is the moment to surpass and do on time of what is necessary, if there is a perseverance, there is a path, thus we follow the direction of the captain and help together. Finally we succeeded to see the brightness. The sunshine shines our ship, of amazing voice, "Look, a mirage!" we turn our sights and see a magnificent tower with several rainbows appear upon the surface of the ocean. How wonderful! All we have seen look like a vivacious and artistic paint and the sounds of the seabirds are like the splendid music raises the beauty and liveliness of the art, all are fine and harmonious and like to make our hearts become more pure.
Suddenly a bell rings and awakens me, all what I saw were merely a dream, at the moment the joyful sounds of laughing waft in the room, convey the cheerful melody of the world and out of the window, a colorful rainbow existed in the sky. I think the dream was just unreal? No, that is illusion but the things I had learned in that illusion is truth, yet we should at last awake in illusion, and always search for the truth, truth is with reality, truth is marvelous than illusion and true excels false and fictitious, sometimes the truth is painful and suffering, but we can think that the unhappy truth or past is for draw open a new prelude. Don't let any bad memory or wrong concept confuse us, and obliterate and forget them. Truth has its own time. We can discover the best truth in different ways by our will and exploration. The growth of time is the growth of mind. It's better to learn more than learn nothing. We need to exert all our strengths to do our best and use the right way to create out of our own pleasure, to be brave, steady, diligent, moral, self-regulated, and hopeful, and let the good and positive of right conquer the bad, evil, and negative of wrong. Go for what are truth and conduciveness with right. Sometimes white lie is also considered as blue moral, since it is in peace and harmlessness. Be kind to ourselves likewise be kind to others. Great spirit is not only considered the present but in every failure or wrong will endeavor to surmount it. Practice makes practiced. Review past lessons and discover new things are the quintessence of study. In learning, we should acquire the good and eliminate the bad. Whether good or bad will many a little makes a mickle, so why not let the good increase? Virtue is immortality and can praise eternally. Trust ourselves that we have resolute minds which can cope and conquer any challenge. When we are in wrong thought, we must think about the right behavior of others, let our hearts open to right and overcome the wrong. Do our best until reborn beyond space-time in our own paradise. We must believe ourselves that we can do and think and not be confused in truth, right, kindness, and perseverance in every moment of our life.
