Buddhist Terminology 佛學名相
Description:
入門便喝，全無巴鼻。引得兒孫，弄粥飯氣。
入門便棒，郎當不少，依而行之，胡麻廝繳。
If one enters the gate and is shouted at right away,
There will be no way even to lead an ox by the nose;
To lead sons and grandsons,
Fool them with the smell of gruel and rice.
If one enters the gate and is immediately clubbed;
There will be many discouragements.
However, by relying on and practicing the teachings,
Something as small as sesame seeds can be bound together.
