营长恭迎于白云

仍拜香无耽误。五月中到白云寺。代送衣单者。即该营营官也。甚欢迎请至营部。优礼待之。休息三日。告辞。送路费礼物不受。于是官者。特派专人。又将其衣单先送上山去。公仍三步一拜。

 

宣化偈曰:
三步一拜始至终。万苦千辛秋复冬。
三年有成功果满。万行齐修遍大中。

Being respectfully received by a major at Pai Yun

The Master continued bowing, and without further delay, arrived at Pai Yun Monastery in the middle of the fifth lunar month. The official who had taken his bag for him was an army officer. He cordially welcomed the Master and invited him to his headquarters. The Major treated him with great respect, and the Master rested there for three days. Upon his departure, the Major presented him with gifts and traveling money, but the Master politely refused them. The Major then sent an attendant to carry the Master's bag up the mountain. The Master continued bowing every three steps.

The verse says:
The Master was bowing every three steps from the start right through to the end.
He underwent the myriad sufferings as autumn turned to winter again.
After three full years he neared success; the fruit was ripe and full.
When the myriad practices are complete then all worlds are pervaded.
