大螺頂禮智慧燈

上大螺頂。拜智慧燈。第一夜無所見。二夜見北台頂。一團火飛中台落。分十餘團。大小不同。三夜見中台。空中三團火。飛上飛下北台又現。四五處火團。亦飛上飛下。各處交流。大小不一。

 

宣化偈曰:
大螺頂拜智慧燈。人皆來此問前程。
初無所見久則現。惟有大小各不同。

Paying his respects to the Wisdom Lamps on Ta Lo Mountain

The Master climbed up Ta Lo Peak and bowed to the Lamps of Wisdom. During the first night of his stay he saw nothing unusual. But on the second night he beheld a ball of fire as it flew up from North Peak and descended at Central Peak where it divided into at least ten flaming balls of different sizes. On the third night of his stay he witnessed three balls of fire floating up and down in the sky around Central Peak and four or five of various sizes floating up and down in the vicinity of North Peak.

The verse says:
The Master bowed to the Wisdom Lamps on top of Ta Lo Mountain.
People often came to this spot to witness what fortune they might.
At first there was nothing unusual, but then they all appeared:
Large ones, small ones, and in between-each fireball was unique.
