Chinese Buddhist Evening Ceremony 佛教 晚課 繞佛 普賢菩薩警眾偈

After reciting Amitabha Buddha's name, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva's verse of admonition is recited.

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva's verse of admonition:
This day is already done, our lives are that much less.
We are like fish in a shrinking pond, what joy is there in this?
Great Assembly! We should be diligent and vigorous, as if our own heads were at stake.
Be mindful of impermanence and avoid being lax.

晚課彌陀讚 , 繞念阿彌陀佛聖號。

普賢菩薩警眾偈
「是日已過，命亦隨減，如少水魚，斯有何樂，大眾當勤精進，如救頭然，但念無常，慎勿放逸。」此偈前半部出自《出曜經》，後半部則是《普賢警眾偈》，二偈合併，自北宋《禪­苑清規》收錄後，被叢林廣為採用。
