Description:

人身難得今已得

人身難得今已得,佛法難聞今已聞;
此身不向今生度,更向何時度此身。

──《禪關策進》

Four-Line Verse

Hard it is to attain the human body, which I have now attained;
Hard it is to hear the Dharma, which I have now heard;
If liberation is not attained with this body in this life;
Till which lifetime shall liberation for this body be attained?

── from Chan Guan Ce Jin (The Chan Whip Anthology)
