The Forty-eighth Gate

Hidden expedient means are a gate of Dharma illumination; for they
are sensitive to many kinds of suffering.

Expedient means :

conducive to advantage for a particular purpose

May we together with all beings
Harbour many ways of teaching
That we may increase compassion and sensitivity

May this offering bring peace to all beings
May our actions contribute to the harmony of The Universe
And, may all hearts and minds be opened to the present.
仁道 生開 - Jindo Shokai "Open to life in a benevolent way"
Just another itinerant monk; go somewhere else to listen to someone who really knows.
