The Diamond Sutra -The Vajracchedika-prajna-paramita Sutra
 金剛般若波羅密經
This is the wrong 4-line stanza
爾時，世尊而說偈言：
「若以色見我　以音聲求我  是人行邪道　不能見如來
Thereupon, the World Honoured One recited the following gatha: "He who sees me by outward appearance; (and) seeks me in sound; tread the heterodox path; (and) cannot perceive the Tathagata.

The correct 4-line stanza is this:-
「一切有為法　如夢幻泡影  如露亦如電　應作如是觀」
"All phenomena are like
"A dream, an illusion, a bubble and a shadow,
"Like dew and lightning.
"Thus should you meditate upon them."
I combine this with The Sutra of Visualizing The Buddha of Immeasurable Length of Life to get the nasal gaze meditation.

I see other politicians and kings can wear national costume, why can't the Chinese leaders wear Chinese costume ?
During the congress meeting, other tribes wear their traditional dresses.
Only the Chinese leaders wear coats and ties.
These are Western costumes.
Can't you Chinese wear Maoist's coats ?
You can lead by getting fashion designers to design all kind of Chinese fashion.
This can grow a new industry and Chinese can be proud to be a Chinese.
Maoists's coats can be made in different colours, different materials.
Like using pure silk, you can print designs, drawings, paintings, wording etc.
See my profile photo, I wear all white chang-pao made of cotton.
