Description:

萬事無如退步休
北宋 慈受懷深禪師(1077~1123)

萬事無如退歩休,本來無證亦無修;
明窗高掛菩提月,淨蓮深栽濁世中。

To the Peace Brought by Compromise Nothing Compares
Cishou Huaishen (1077 - 1123, Northern Song Dynasty)
English translation: Miao Guang

To the peace brought by compromise nothing compares,
Since nothing there is to cultivate or attain;
Hanging high outside the clear window is the moon,
Blooming from a turbid world, the pure lotuses.
