Chanyuan Celestial's Departure Speech for the Second Stage of Lifechanyuan

Xuefeng

March 3, 2014

My heart is pure and serene, without resentment or hatred. For what I have done in the past, I have repaid all beings, without regret toward Heaven or my conscience.

The difficulties I have encountered are due to karmic retribution, the arrangement of the Tao. I accept them gladly, with no grudges, and my spirit is clear and bright.

Today, I set out with renewed vigor, starting from scratch, without any regrets. My heart is pure, and my future is bright.

My debts are paid, and the merits are recorded. The fairy world and the Buddhist Pure Land are my home. I proceed with ease, finding joy in new beginnings.

Saying farewell to the past and welcoming the future, creating something from nothing—every place is an oasis. My heart is joyful, and the path is clear.

Parting from my hometown and loved ones, I am originally a celestial being and Buddha, untainted by worldly emotions. My ties to the secular world are severed, and my heart is at peace.

I am originally selfless, descending into the mortal world not of my own will, but by the decree of the heavenly Tao. May my loved ones not be troubled by me.

As for the future, it is up to fate. No matter where I am, I will naturally follow the Tao, and my words and actions will align with nature.

Planting grass and trees is my nature. Living among flowers, the spiritual essence endures. Under the moon and among flowers, the sound of flutes and pipes is heard.

Life's journey is a fleeting illusion, passing quickly. It is but a glimpse, and I move forward gracefully towards eternity.

In the garden of my soul, the mountain flowers bloom brilliantly. The weeds have been removed, and it is beautifully adorned. What the world desires, I have already experienced.

I do not linger in the hustle and bustle. Fame and fortune are like dust, and worldly love is foul and stinking.

With the guide ahead, there are new realms to discover. Spreading a palmful of sand, green trees emerge. Holograph gives birth to the heart, and mysteries abound.

Consciousness precedes, structures emerge, and energy follows—marvels appear. Reaching the heavens and the earth, the games are endless.

I am a rare flower of the heavenly kingdom, untouched by the worldly hustle and bustle. Amidst a thousand miles of frozen land, I bloom gracefully with celestial beauty.

The clouds on the horizon connect with the sacred mountain, offering infinite scenery and boundless skies. The fourth level of meditation links to the celestial abode, and the Celestial Islands are not far from sight.
