Numerous crowds all entered in,
joining with the floating Scene (Jing) at

Zhōng Tiān Rén Yǎng Kàn Wéi Jiàn Bó Bó Cóng Xū Kōng Zhōng Rù
Jì Rù Kōng Nèi Bù Zhī Suŏ
the Center.
Celestial Beings (Tian Ren) with faces
turned upward in respect tend after it.
With thoughts and opinions of exuberance
coming from the Emptiness (Kong) of the sky to enter into this,
as well as then entering into the Emptiness Within (Kong Nei),
having no knowledge of the place that is there.

Zài Guŏ Rén Kuò Sàn Dì Huán Píng Zhèng
Existing amonst one's fellow countrymen,
while scattering widely to carry out distribution
all over the Earth (Di), having the means

to be connected with jubliance and happy events,
it is difficult to say.

Fǎ Shì Cū Xí Zhū Tiān Fù Wèi Shù Yán Zhī Jiān Jì Wú Yí Xiǎng
[Unlike] the Legalists with their rough and careless knowledge of Heaven (Zhu Tian),
[instead] return to that location like rapidly rising sparks from an agitated fire.
And like those spaces between (one likewise must) use
a room allowing only complete silence.
