【 The Meditation Session - Preparation 修持轨理-加行】Take all the conquerors who reside in all ten directions (past, present and future) and make sincere and respectful physical...缘十方三世诸佛，以至诚心，三业敬礼
【The Meditation Session - Preparation】- Take all the conquerors who reside in all ten directions (past, present and future) and make sincere and respectful physical, verbal and mental obeisance.
【This verse is a sincere and respectful physical, verbal, and mental obeisance that does not simply conform to what others do. Do not take as your object of meditation the buddhas of a single direction in the universe or of a single time. Rather, take all the conquerors who reside in all ten directions as well as those who have already visited this world previously, will visit here in the future, and are appearing at present. 】
What we are able to accomplish now is to pay respect with sincerity. To understand “conform to what others do,” what does it mean? There are several types: one is to follow the external condition. When others bow, you bow as well – when everyone is here prostrating, you have no choice but to follow, just this feeling. In many of our morning and evening sessions, alas, you might attend with afflictive emotion and that is the sign of being influenced by the external condition. Another type is where even if there is no external condition, you are bowing alone, yet the afflictions are churning [in your mind] – this is still not being in concordance. So what is the correct application? That is properly applying the teaching when prostrating. At that time, it would be considered pure obeisance. This is the point and concept.

修持轨理-加行 : 缘十方三世诸佛，以至诚心，三业敬礼
【非缘一方世界及一时之佛，应缘十方过去当来及现在所有一切诸佛。】
然后呢？
【以至诚心，三业敬礼，非随他转。】
我们现在能够做到的，就是恭敬至诚。[随他转]要了解，什么叫[随他转]？有几种形式：有一种随他转，随外境的随他转，别人也拜，你也跟着拜，大家在这个地方，大家在那儿拜，你也不得不拜，就是这种味道。我们上早、晚殿很多情况之下，唉，苦苦恼恼跑得去，那是随外面的他转。还有一种呢，虽然没有外面，你自己在那儿拜，但是啊随烦恼转，这个仍旧不相应。要怎么样才对啊？如法地、如理地，那个时候去拜，那个时候就是清净的礼，这个概念。
