過了憂危第幾重
從今再歷永無凶
寬心自有寬心計
得遇高人護聖功
How many layers of worry and danger have you passed?
From now on, what you go through holds no more harm.
A calm heart finds a calm heart's plan,
And you meet a wise one who guards the sacred work.
What this lot says
The verse looks back over layer upon layer of worry and says the worst of it is behind you. A calm mind finds its own way forward, and a wise person appears to help.
Take the confidence of the second line as encouragement. No verse can promise a life without trouble. The useful part is the third line: ease your mind, then make your plan.
If you have just come through a hard year at work or at home, pause before the next decision. Seek out someone experienced whose advice you trust, and let a steadier mind choose.
A lot is a prompt for reflection. It cannot promise a result, and it is no substitute for medical, legal or financial advice.
