Ten Truths (Shi Zhen).
Originally not alive to be exterminated, the Fetal-Root (Tai Gen)
has not yet had a breaking away from it,
thereby causing things to yield mutually to each other through Change (Bian Hua).
Dì Wéi Zhŏng Zú Shī Xuè Liú Xíng Gú Rǎng Xíng Xiŭ Wŏ Suī
Transmission is necessary because those things which are Corpses (Shi)
have their blood and bones that having been covered with soil
so give the appearance of being rotten and decayed.
For one being so, then
Tiān Rén
Wèi Chū Sān Jiŭ Xíng Wèi Dú Huà Yŭ Dào Xiāng Gé Zòng Shǐ Shēn
Yóu Zài Sè Jìng Gù Yú
the state of being a Celestial Being has not yet been completed.
Through the Three Borders (San Jie) the body has not yet
sprung up to become converted with the help of the Way (Dao).
The Forms (Xiang) are mutually separated however,
enabling the body to be just like before with its countenance and qualities.
Under these conditions therefore, it is
Xiāng Shì Jiē Shŏu
the Form (Xiang) that needs to be watched over and take over another's duties
Yŭ Yán Yīn Shēng Bù Qì Dà Dòng Shǐ Sān Shǐ Dàng Sì Hùi Xuè Jiǎ Xié Mó Chéng
Xí Bèi Yuān Zhēn Dào
by speaking the news, declaring that there is no contract with the Great Cavity (Da Dong).
This enables the Three Corpses (San Shi) to be at the [marshy] shallows
to [undergo] the rinsing away of their dirt and static blood.
The Demons try to take advantage [of this] to carry out a surprise attack
from the rear and push one aside from the True Path (Zhen Dao)
