The past is already past, The future is not yet here, The present never abides; Things are constantly changing, with nothing on which to depend; So many names and words confusingly self-created – What is the use of wasting your life thus idly all day? Do not retain your timeworn views, Not pursue your newly-fashioned imaginations: Sincerely and wholeheartedly make inquiries and also reflect within yourself; Inquiring and reflecting, reflecting and inquiring, Until the moment when no further inquiries are possible; For this is the time when you will realize that all your past has been in the wrong.
