Emptiness [and] Non-existence

Seldom to speak is natural.
A whirlwind not outlasts the morning.

A violent rain not outlasts the day.

Who causes [them} then, [who is] the one?

[It is] heaven [and] earth.

Heaven [and] earth even not can be persistent.

And much less for man,

indeed!

Therefore [who] pursues business with reason,

the one, a rational one identifies himself with reason.

[Who] pursues business with virtue,

the one identifies himself with virtue.

[Who] pursues business with loss,

the one identifies himself with loss.

[Who] identifies himself with reason,

the one, the reason also he enjoys to obtain he [does].

[Who] identifies himself with virtue,

the one, virtue also he enjoys to obtain he [does].

[Who] identifies himself with loss,

the one, loss also he enjoys to obtain he [does].

[When] faith is not sufficient, 

indeed he will receive not faith.
