Park Jin-gwan Poet Seen 53 Seon knowledge 20th. 49, Gaeamsa Temple Wonhyo Cave
Climb the Gaeamsa Wonhyo Cave
Make a vow to repent
About Wonhyo's Balsim practice field
It was a source of repentance
The crypt where Wonhyo practiced
Hey, did you visit now?
I reflected on myself.
Wonhyo requested an expeditionary force from the Tang Dynasty
The history of the invasion of Baekje
Wasn't it an act of repentance?
Wonhyo could not bear it without repentance.
It was the work of Wonhyo.
No one can climb Wonhyo's dungeon
there can only be my death
Sailing the crypt to such a trinity
Every word you move step by step
It must have been the crossroads of life and death.
body contemplating such practice
With a body like that, rock robbery
that it was rising
Now, the body climbing toward the rock cave
There is a way to set foot
On that day there is no way to go
only self-sufficiency
i think i showed
Wonhyo's practice shows him discovering his self.
It is said to begin in the crypt,
If I had nothing to eat and my body was alive
Wonhyo is obviously an angel in the sky
Bringing food, Wonhyo eats chestnuts
It is a body that endures as a body of training
Wonhyo takes off the rising sun from the crypt
I am arguing that I lived for the sake of it.
I, who lacked practice, wonhyo practiced
Climbing the crypt is the way to find me
I knew that it was the body that found me.
I lean on the rock and say when I move my feet
dizziness all over his body
With a look that can't hold me
However, Wonhyo did a rock cave
For rebirth while sleeping deeply
Let's remember that we did
The day of reading Wonhyo's footsteps
I hit my forehead on a rock to bleed
The fact that he repented
who can properly lead this era
A vow to find one's self and save sentient beings
The life given to me that I can't build
The day when you can discover your self and save all sentient beings
It is today's vow that promises that day,
What was given to me as I climb Wonhyo's rock cave
Silla's repentance for inviting Tang troops to destroy Baekje
It was Wonhyo's body to reflect on that day,
looking at the rising moon
Afternoon with the sunset in the sky
even the birds sing
The cranes spread their wings and fly away
Do the crypt where Wonhyo is sitting
I saw you bowing your head
Wonhyo, shed tears of repentance that day
let it flow through me
I wipe the tears Wonhyo shed that day
When night falls, I will make you a star in the sky
Become a star and give light even on a dark night
I'm making a vow to do it
I put myself to sleep but
I can't keep up the sleepless nights
They are repenting for the cruelty of the Silla army.
