Hi, Skylee

Thanks a lot for the links. I think the translation for 劫數 and 召魂 is okay. But 超度 and
禪機 I am not so sure if it's the mode adequate from the dictionary.

For 禪機, Gato, Hashirikata, Muyongshi, Studentyoung they have suggested nice translations, too.
The link you gave me :



Quote:

禪機 -> http://www.baidu.com/baidu?ie=gb2312...&word=%B6U%99C

I looked at it and it says: Buddhist allegoric words or gestures.

During all these days, we have come up with the following choices:

Zen cues/ to throw a zen cue
Zen hint/ to drop a zen hint
Buddhist allegories
to initiate a koan session
zen wit/ to test the zen wit
allegorical words and gestures
zen parable


I think, I'd just make it simple. May be just vote for it. What do you think?　The one with most
votes will be the choice!!! Is that okay?

Hi insight. I am not really interested in which is the nicest translation. Usually if people ask a
question and if I could offer something I would try to help. It is this simple. It is up to you to
decide which of the translations offered by all the nice people here that you would want to use.

Hi, I am back!

Does any body have idea of how to say:

1) 內方外圓

2) 昨夜三更夢尋迴 今日方外一衲僧

3) 陰氣

Thank you ^_^
