    The translation and the original text are as follows:

    Ancient scholars must have teachers. Teacher, so preaching and receiving karma to solve doubts. If people are not born to know, how can they be free from confusion?

    If you are confused and do not follow the teacher, it is confused, and you will not be able to solve it. Before I was born, he heard the Tao before me, and I learned from him; After being born to me, he heard the Tao before me, and I learned from him. My teacher is also the way, and the husband knows that he was born in my year?

    In ancient times, those who studied must have had teachers. A teacher is a person who is used to impart truths, teach studies, and explain difficult problems. People are not born with knowledge and truth, who can not have doubts?

    If you have doubts, if you don't learn from the teacher, you will never be able to solve the problems that have become confusing.

    The person who was born before me understood the truth earlier than me, and I studied from him and took him as a teacher. Whoever was born after me, if he understood the truth, he would have been earlier than me, and I would have followed him and worshipped him as a teacher. I have learned from him, and it doesn't matter if he was born before me or after me?
