佛寺楹聯 ─ 佛光山美國西來寺禪堂
大夢誰先覺，趁早回頭，
相信西方為實有；
雄風我久仰，及時放手，
好從當體悟真空。
──選自《佛光教科書》

Temple Couplets - Meditation Hall, Hsi Lai Temple
English translation: Miao Guang
Who is first to awaken from the great dream?
Turn around while it is still early,
Believe that Western Pure Land truly exists;
Long have I heard of such awe-inspiring manner,
Let go while you can,
So as to realize the essence of true emptiness.
── from Fo Guang Jiaokeshu (FGS Essential Guide to Buddhism)
