遇事只一味鎮定從容，縱紛若亂絲，終當就緒。
Stay calm and composed no matter what happens. Even the most tangled things will eventually fall into place.

離道別覓道，終身不見道，
波波度一生，到頭還自懊。
Leaving the Way to seek the Way, we will never see the Way even until our life ends. Hustling and bustling to pass this life, we will have nothing but regret in the end.
