“I bow in repentance of any stupid thoughts [that are] the seeds of evil.”
This is #34 out of a series of 108 daily Buddhist affirmations that I am attempting to translate with my hands tied behind my back (well not really that, but I’m deliberately not seeking out translations on the internet, using only dictionary and grammar).
…
32. 한갓 취미나 즐거움으로 다른 생명을 희생시키는 일을 참회하며 절합니다.
“I bow in repentance of any sacrifice of the lives of others [in pursuit] of mere pasttime or pleasure.”
33. 오직 나만을 생각하는 것을 참회하며 절합니다.
“I bow in repentance of thinking only of myself.”
34. 악연의 씨가되는 어리석은 생각을 참회하며 절합니다.
I would read this thirty-fourth affirmation as: “I bow in repentance of any stupid thoughts [that are] the seeds of evil.”
Stupid thoughts. Huh-huh.
