The Intro

灵根育孕源流出 心性修持大道生

The Divine Root Conceives and the Spring Breaks Forth

As the Heart’s Nature Is Cultivated, the Great Way Arises

混沌未分天地乱,茫茫渺渺无人见。

Before Chaos was divided, Heaven and Earth were one;

All was a shapeless blur, and no men had appeared.

自从盘古破鸿蒙,开辟从兹清浊辨。

Once Pan Gu destroyed the Enormous Vagueness

The separation of clear and impure began. 

覆载群生仰至仁,发明万物皆成善。

Living things have always tended toward humanity; 

From their creation all being improve.
