Excerpts

The Four Noble Truths Are Eternal 四圣谛是永恒的

月可令热,日可令冷,佛说四[圣]谛,不可令异。

The moon can be made hot, and the sun can be made cold, while the Buddha’s spoken Four [Noble] Truths, cannot be made different.

佛说苦谛实苦,不可令乐。

[1] The Buddha’s spoken suffering’s truth is true suffering, that cannot lead to bliss.

集真是因,更无异因。

[2] Accumulation [of suffering with greed, hatred and delusion] truly is the cause, furthermore without a different cause.

苦若灭者,即是因灭,因灭故果灭。

[3] Suffering, if to be that eliminated, this then is with the cause to be eliminated, as with the cause eliminated, thus is the effect eliminated.

灭苦之道,实是真道,更无余道。

[4] The path of eliminating suffering, truly is the true path, furthermore without another path.
