I praise you endlessly, our Kind Mentor, because you have taught us that it is very important to study continuously since sentient beings are variable, saying if there is no continuous learning but an interruption, when you want to study again, you cannot start from what you stopped because of the increased worldly afflictions you have accumulated during this period, but start from your increased afflictions, karma and habits.
I praise you endlessly, our Kind Mentor, because you have rid me of my solid arrogance and let me not dare to always believe my thoughts again.
I praise you endlessly, our Kind Mentor, because you have admonished us compassionately, saying “Do not deny and find fault with others！All the problems you have found will confuse you life after life; you will not understand and improve on these points which you have denied just for once for at least a lifetime. If you try to understand and master them, it will be very difficult, and the more you try, the less tasty it will be. On the contrary, if you are fond of and admire something that others do, it will be very easy for you to understand it and you can even master better than them.
I praise you endlessly, our Kind Mentor, because you have led us to follow the highly qualified persons and to do everything by ourselves.
I praise you endlessly, our Kind Mentor, because you have reminded us of keeping a lookout for affliction, saying “As soon as you relax a bit, the affliction will begin to expand and it will do so at an unexpected speed. The obstacles resulting from the affliction are so terrible that even if you have planted good causes, you cannot attain good rewards.
I praise you endlessly, our Kind Mentor. I tried to understand you standing on your ground when I occasionally suffered from mosquitoes, heat and cold, itching and pain, and I am deeply grateful for all the suffering you have endured on our behalf.
I praise you endlessly, our Kind Mentor, for your salvage all the time. I saw clearly in my dream that when I was being chased by a poisonous snake and was terrified, you came and sealed the snake’s hole so that I would not be frightened and would not have to worry.
I praise you and am grateful to you. I am sincerely grateful for what you have done and established for me who have the inferior faculties.
