設行不得ㆍ 不失善種ㆍ 猶成來世ㆍ 積習勝緣。故唯心訣云ㆍ「聞而不信ㆍ 尙結佛種之因ㆍ 學而未成ㆍ 猶盖人天之福。」由是觀之ㆍ不論末法與正法時殊ㆍ 不憂自心昧之與明。但生仰信之心ㆍ 隨分修行ㆍ以結正因ㆍ 遠離怯弱。當知。世樂非久ㆍ正法難聞ㆍ豈可因循虛送人生。

云 says
ㆍ「聞而不信ㆍ 尙結佛種之因ㆍ 學而未成ㆍ 猶盖人天之福。」
“Hearing [the dharma] even without faith still fructifies into the seed of buddhahood. Training even without success is still superior to the merit of humans and divinities.”
