Sutra
of Forty-Two Chapters
When the mind is properly adjusted
And quiety applied
The Way is attainable;
But when you are fervently bent
on it,
Your body grows tired;
When your body is tired, your
spirit
Becomes weary.
When your spirit is weary, your
discipline
Will relax,
And with relaxation of
Discipline,
There follows many distractions.
Be calm and pure, and the Way
will be gained.
