心の変化には限りがなく、そのはたらきにも限りがない。汚れた心からは汚れた世界が現れ、清らかな心からは清らかな世界が現れるから、外界の変化にも限りがない。
The activities of mind have no limit, they form the surroundings of life. An impure mind surrounds itself with impure things and a pure mind surrounds itself with pure things; hence, surroundings have no more limits than the activities of the mind.

すべてのものは心によってつくられる the functions of the mind
迷いもさとりも心から現れ、すべてのものは心によってつくられる。ちょうど手品師が、いろいろなものを自由に現わすようなものである。
Both delusion and Enlightment originate within the mind, and every existence or phenomenon arises from the functions of the mind, just as different things appear from the sleeve of a magician.

悲しみと苦しみのもと all human woe
この三つは、この世の悲しみと苦しみのもとである。この悲しみと苦しみのもとを絶つものは、戒めと心の統一と智慧である。戒めは貪りの汚れを取り去り、正しい心の統一は怒りの汚れを取り去り、智慧は愚かさの汚れを取り去る。
Theese three --- greed, anger and foolishness --- are,therefore, the sources of all human woe. To get rid of these sources of woe, one must observe the precepts, must practice concentratio of mind and must have wisdome. Obserevance of the precepts will remove the impurities of greed; right concentration of mind will remove the impurities of anger; and wisdom will remove the impurities of foolishness.

この三つの煩悩のない人 Those who have no such fever
この三つの煩悩のない人は、寒い冬の夜、木の葉を敷物とした薄い寝床でも、快く眠ることができ、むし暑い夏の夜、閉じこめられた狭苦しい部屋でも、安らかに眠ることができる。
Those who have no such fever have no difficulty in sleeping peacefully, even on a cold winter night, on the ground with only a thin covering of leaves, or on a hot summer's night in a small closed room.

その熱にうなされて he will suffer
貪り、怒り、愚かさは熱のようなものである。どんな人でも、この熱の一つでも持てば、いかに美しい広びろとした部屋に身を横たえても、その熱にうなされて、寝苦しい思いをしなければならない。
Greed, anger and foolishness are like a fever. If a man gets this fever, even if he lies in a comfortable room, he will suffer and be tormented by sleeplessness.

煩悩 passions
したがって、人びとは気に入ったものの姿を見聞きしては正しく思い、気に入らないものの姿を見ては慈しみの心を養い、常に正しく考えて、この三つの火を消さなければならない。もしも、人びとが正しく、清く、無私の心に満ちているならば、煩悩によって惑わされることはない。
Therefore, people should quench these fires whenever and wherever they appear by correctly judging as to what can give true satisfaction, by strictly controlling the mind in the face of the unsatisfactory things of life, and by every recalling teaching of good-will and kindness. If the mind is filled with wise and pure and unselfish thoughts, there will be no place for worldly passions to take root.

貪り、怒り、愚かさ greed, anger, foolishness
貪りは満足を得たい気持ちから、怒りは満足を得られない気持ちから、愚かさは不浄な考えから生まれる。貪りは罪の汚れは少ないけれども、これを離れることは容易ではなく、怒りは罪の汚れが大きいけれども、これを離れることは早いものである。愚かさは罪の汚れも大きく、またこれを離れることも容易ではない。
Greed rises in want of satisfaction; anger rises in want of dissatisfaction; and foolishness rises from impure thoughts. The evil of greed has little impurity but is hard to remove. the evil of anger has more impurity but is easy to remove; the evil of foolishness has much impurity and is very hard to overcome.
