Hong Yin Volume II (English Translation Version B)

How much longer evil runs rampant
Fully reflects the will of all beings
This havoc—who is outside of it?
Laughing and watching the foolishness of deities

February 10, 2001
The 18th day of the first month, the Year of Xin Si in the lunar calendar

Universal Illumination

Gods and Buddhas walk in the world

Evil hearts start to worry

In this chaotic world, Dafa is the solution

Stopping society’s downward slide

February 17, 2001

The 25^th day of the first month, the Year of Xin Si in the lunar calendar

Eliminate Evil

Riding chariots a hundred thousand miles

Brandishing swords, ridding evil in a flash

Upright palms support the falling sky

Fa-rectification clears away the gloom

February 19, 2001

The twenty-seventh day of the first month of the Year of Xin Si in the lunar calendar

Nothingness

Not nothingness, not emptiness, not anything

No goodness, no evilness, beyond the utmost

Moving forward, hundreds of millions of things can form

Moving backward, completely nothing remains, forever a mystery

February 22, 2001

Pause to Think

A journey of dust, a journey of wind

Myriad evils weeded out, myriad beings brought to life

Laboring the heart, striving to resolve deep rancor

It’s hard to have a light heart and look at scenery

February 22, 2001

On the Journey

Within the furthest reaches, where is it most steep

Look at the sky within the canyon

Where can immortals be found

Face to face, not recognizing them

February 22, 2001

At the Grand Canyon, USA

Settling the Great Havoc

How many chaotic affairs in the human world

Gratitude and resentment experienced over and over

Wicked hearts with massive karma are doomed

Dafa settles everything from the origin

February 22, 2001

Obtain Dao, Be Enlightened

A dynasty’s emperor, a dynasty’s people

Dynasty after dynasty, predestination established, waiting for Fa

Heed not things about predestiny in any given dynasty

Reach Consummation, return home, everything will be clear

February 24, 2001

No Confusion

Who is the lord of heaven

Realm after realm, beings stray from Fa

Each claiming to rule the firmament

Time draws nigh for returning to position

Let’s see who is still muddleheaded

March 14, 2001

Journeying in Dao

Great Dao journeys in the world

Rescues beings in the maze

Washing away attachments to fame, sentiment, and gain

What hardship can hinder the divine

March 19, 2001

Discarding Attachments

Although cultivation matters are discussed

Attachments of the heart must be discarded

What is given up is not one’s self

It’s all foolishness in the maze

April 16, 2001

The 23^rd day of the third month, the Year of Xin Si in the lunar calendar

No Obstacles

Cultivation paths are different

Yet all are within Dafa

With no attachment to anything

The path underfoot is naturally clear

April 16, 2001

The 23^rd of the third month, the Year of Xin Si in the lunar calendar

Predestiny Forms and the Lotus Blooms

The truly great men, where are they now

Dafa begins to spread, one after another they come

Many, many years—a hundred, a thousand times over

Predestiny bears the Right Fruit, all lotus flowers bloom

June 19, 2001

Gradual Culmination

Amidst violent rolling billows, a wisp of rosy glow is seen

All fated calamities are already culminating

The Fa of the cosmos is rectified, heaven and earth is stabilized

Returning to the human world, picking ticks and nits

July 17, 2001

Words of Truth

Gods and Buddhas come to the world

Sentence after sentence, uttering words of truth

Affairs of heaven, earth, humans, and gods

True secrets are spread for Fa

August 19, 2001

Autumn Wind Is Cold

Evil wicked ones, don’t rush into violent action

For it’s down to the boiling water when heaven and earth are clear again

With fists and feet, it’s hard to move human hearts

Violent winds bring an autumn that’s even colder

October 25, 2001

Foretelling

Autumn still lingers, spring is already here

Humans doubt, yet everything has come

The sky gapes open, the great earth burns

Evil hides, evildoers flee

Gong gushes in, ghosts wail and howl

Dafa disciples, ascending to the ninth heaven[6]

Preside over heaven and earth and rectify the human way

December 30, 2001

Great Dao Journeys

Raising the eyes to gaze at blue skies

From the macro to the micro, all are eyes

From above and below, at the point of focus

Great Dao journeys in the human world

January 15, 2002

Havoc

Dim, dim dark clouds, murky for several days

Severe cold is completely gone, spring is already seen

Living beings awaken and see heart-stirring things

The Central Plains[7] is half covered by sand and dust

January 22, 2002

Sweep Away

Dark clouds pass, winds remain strong

Red Dragon is beheaded, humans remain lost

Where there is vicious evil, there is dark dense haze

Dafa disciples, one palm upright

Purge remaining evil, righteous thoughts arise

Speak the truth, rescue all beings

Extinguish evil completely, sweep the entire cosmos

January 23, 2002

Inevitable

Masses of evil descend together—what madness

Massive lies, deceiving the world, overturn the heavens

In the play, buffoons let loose their frenzy

Foils to Dafa, then down to the boiling water they go

January 30, 2002

Washing Away

The sky collapses, the earth overturns, sand and dust fall

Poisoning the human world, several hundred million people

Who knows how many compassion rescues and saves

Everywhere in the Central Plains, more new graves

January 31, 2002

The Big Stage

The human world of five thousand years –

the Central Plains is the stage.

Hearts are captivated by the story in the play –

brilliant colors, how pretty.

Waking, looking at each other—

the stage is set for Fa.

February 1, 2002

A Play

Heaven serves as the curtain, earth is the stage,

The universe moves, heaven and earth open.

Everything down through the ages, all came for Fa,

Falun spins off the new Three Gifts.[8]

February 5, 2002

Advance Wholeheartedly, Enlighten Righteously

Study Fa without idling, changing in the process

Firmly believe without budging, coming to fruition—lotus forms

April 6, 2002

Fa Rectifies the Cosmos

Mercy can melt heaven and earth into spring

Righteous thought can save people of the world

April 6, 2002

Dafa Is Good

Falun Dafa is good
The vast firmament is lit by Fa’s light

The great force of Fa-rectification passes

Only then are the boundless wonders known

Falun Dafa is good
Gradually entering the human world
All beings, do not be impatient
Gods and Buddhas are already smiling

April 25, 2002

Bell Tower

Peals of sound shake the Fa world

The voice of Fa spreads in ten directions

Drum Tower

When the mallet strikes, one knows to advance wholeheartedly

Fa drums awaken humans, knocking them out of confusion

Buddha Fa Is Boundless

Incense burners draw all ghosts disrupting Fa

Treasured tripods melt the deities denying Fa

May 5, 2002

Entering the Gate of No-Life

Riding a tiger, it’s hard to get off
Humans want to gamble with Gods
Evil ones go to the extreme
Fully blocking their own life’s path

May 13, 2002

Tathagata

Coming with true principles of free will,

With a light and easy spirit, traversing the four seas[9]

The Fa principles spread everywhere in the human world

Fully laden with living beings, the Fa boat sails

Great enlightened beings fear no hardship

Their will is cast of diamond

Life or death, they have no attachment

Forthright and broad-minded on the road of Fa-rectification

May 29, 2002

The Path to Divinity Is Difficult

A long, long time—ten thousand lifetimes of predestination

Dafa, like a thread, strings them together

Amidst tribulation, the gold body is refined

There is no reason for steps so slow

May 30, 2002

Righteous Gods

Righteous thought, righteous action
Advance wholeheartedly, do not stop
Purge the ghosts that disrupt Fa
Treat all beings with kindness

May 30, 2002

The Sky Is Clear Again

The sky is dim, dim; the earth dark, dark
Divine thunder explodes, dark dense haze disperses
Sweeping away rotten ghosts that disrupt Fa
Do not say the compassionate heart is inadequate

June 16, 2002
Written for the Midwestern United States Fa Conference

Shock and Frighten

Divine pens shock humans and demons

Like sharp blades, they excise rotten ghosts

Old forces do not respect Fa

A flourish of brushes quells the wild surge

July 28, 2002

In the maze, worldly humans can obtain Fa

Yet the foolish and crazy are outside the earthly world

September 5, 2002

The Net Is Closing

The violent evil runs wild—how much longer
The chilly autumn wind is already here
Rotten ghosts tremble at their core
In the final days, see their despair

September 14, 2002

Return

Ten years of spreading Fa—the grand gate is open

How many beings not able to enter

Lost in the world, forgetting their origin

As the fierce winds blow, they follow the decline

December 12, 2002

The Might of God

The dust vanishes, the fog lifts, and the air gradually clears

Worldly humans wake from confusion, eyes filled with awe

Dafa’s great force flows over the human world

Look again, Gods and Buddhas walk on earth

December 28, 2002

The 25^th day of the 11^th month, the Year of Ren Wu in the lunar calendar

Surround and Exterminate

Heaven and earth turn upside down, human demons are vicious

Deceiving the world with massive lies; sinister winds are fierce

Dafa disciples speak the truth

The Fa-power of righteous thought strikes demon caves

January 23, 2003

Plum Blossoms

Written in the style of a Yuan Dynasty lyric poem

Like pure lotus in the muddy world—

millions and billions of plum blossoms

In the bitter wind, looking more lovely

Day after day, it snows and rains—

tears of Gods and Buddhas

Longing for plum blossoms to return

Don’t get lost in worldly attachments

Be steadfast in righteous thought

Through the ages to the present

Just for this one time

January 28, 2003

Descending to Earth

While Falun rotates, there must be madness,

Exhausting the nation’s resources, they’re busy because of me.

I quietly watch these clowns, their demon show ending,

All that remains is the last of the dirt blowing in the wind.

Five thousand years of samsara, clouds and rain,

Brush away the coating of dust, see the truth as it is

In the great play, who[10] is in the leading role –

Coming to the play only for living beings.

The 29^th day of the 12^th month, the Year of Ren Wu in the lunar calendar

Dafa’s Journey

Written in the style of a Song Dynasty lyric poem

Falun Dafa

Deep and immeasurable

Forms the vast firmament

Creates all beings

Three true words

The principles are simple, the words are clear

Commoners knowing surface meanings are richly blessed

Officials knowing shallow meanings see clearly as in a mirror

A king knowing the principles

Brings stability to the country

Peace reigns

Prosperity prevails

Monarchs and ministers are upright

Fortune continues life after life

People are safe and settled

The five grains are harvested year after year

Cultivators are more clear

Once they obtain Fa and enter the Way

They advance wholeheartedly, cultivate solidly, form Gong and Fa

Opposing persecution

Rescuing and saving beings

Journeying on a God’s path

March 2, 2003

The 30^th day of the first month, the Year of Guiwei in the lunar calendar

In One Thought

Openly and magnanimously, I rectify the vast firmament

Great adversity accompanies me on my journey of heaven and earth

Attaining credit and virtue is of no concern

Rectifying heaven, rectifying earth, rectifying all beings

With true thought, a grand wish and diamond will

Creating the great vastness again in one thought

The 13^th day of the fifth month, the Year of Guiwei in the lunar calendar

Tang Wind

The body is in this mountain

The spirit is wandering in divine realms

Whoever is from the ancient Central Plains

Does not know the wind of the Great Tang Dynasty

The sixth month, the Year of Guiwei in the lunar calendar

Watch Carefully

Even though the world is small

It fully reflects the vast firmament

The skies are filled with eyes

All gods are focusing here

The firmament is formed again

Heaven and earth again created

You want this, he wants that

Sorrowful and laughable

The Lord of Fa rectifies the firmament

What can escape

June 19, 2003

Reading Students’ Articles

Sharp pens write brilliant articles

Words powerful, sentences profound

The body of science is full of holes

The evil party is stripped of its clothes

July 22, 2003

Turbulent Times

Written in the style of a Song Dynasty lyric poem

The Central Plains for about five thousand years

With each dynasty and generation, new faces appear

At the end of an era, the heavens have no Dao

Humans commit evil and demonic deeds

Jackals and wolves roam the world

The treacherous party is led by demons

Not that there isn’t retribution for evil

The great force is fast approaching

August 1, 2003

From the View of Fa-Rectification

Written in the style of a Song Dynasty lyric poem

Han Xin[11] won the land for the Han Dynasty

For what—

All beings come here to obtain Fa

August 15, 2003

Expedition

Galloping ten thousand miles, breaking demon formations

Killing all evil schemers[15], eliminating wicked gods

Who cares about your thick fog or fierce wind swirling

Mountainrains along the way wash off dust from the expedition

September 2, 2003

Be Rational, Awaken

Rest momentarily for self-reflection, add righteous thoughts

Analyze shortcomings explicitly, advance again wholeheartedly

September 4, 2003

A Diamond Will

The autumn sky is high, the air is clearing

The dense dark haze is gone

Hours and days counted on fingers

Little remains as the vast firmament fades

Lost beings each act recklessly

Not knowing great danger approaches

While great efforts are made to prevent the breakdown

How can rotten ghosts be allowed to interfere

Will and thought surpass diamond

The macro and the micro are done by me

September 4, 2003

Fa Rectifies All Things

Charging beyond the Three Realms

The emptiness and nothingness displays the great cosmos

With Fa rectified, heaven and earth last

About to rest, yet evil rises again

The Four Elements[16] have been eroded

The Old Fa disintegrates

The celestial body is boundlessly huge

The cosmic body is even more vast, to the extreme

The vast firmament has been far surpassed

The paramount position is more gorgeous

The heroic spirit by nature is great

Even time does not wear it down

Thought is like a diamond will

All are in line with Dafa principles

Inexorable Doom

Written in the style of a Yuan Dynasty lyric poem

Harming all beings

And damaging ancient traditions

Humans, quickly awaken

On the Divine Continent, Dafa starts its course

Severing

Written in the style of a Yuan Dynasty lyric poem

How to transcend the mortal world

Mercy spreads the fragrant scent

And sprinkles sweet dew on the human world

The lotus blooms throughout the court of heaven

Humans, for whatever they have done

Must suffer the tyranny of fatal pestilence

January 1, 2004

Stupidity

Written in the style of a Yuan Dynasty lyric poem

Crazy, arrogant, mad

Jumping to the roof beam

The crow tries to block the sun

Stupidity, evil and lies

All are fully exposed

Flames of jealousy burn its heart, showing its original form

The toad leaps into boiling oil

January 8, 2004

Don’t Be Sad

Your body lies in prison—don’t be sorrowful, don’t be sad

Calmly reflect on how many attachments you have

As you get rid of human mentality, evil is naturally defeated

Master has the power to turn the tide
