| 1. | It is better than having nothing . when we are alive , the silver cord exists
师父问他有什么事，他就告诉那个故事，请师父救他。 |
| 2. | It is because most of them are separated from the sound current forever . there is a silver cord in every one of us when we are alive
以前有一个国王，他的王国很漂亮，他也是很有道德有修行的人，也修观音法门喔！ |
| 3. | Their silver cords exist forever , taking them to and from higher worlds , so they are always free and never lost or separated from the highest spiritual plane
那天他回去打坐，看到那个苹果山消掉一座了，不过还剩一座山那么大。 |
| 4. | For those who do not know how to use the silver cord , it is used only once at the time of their death , when it is irreparably severed . that is very sad
那一种苹果很小，不是给人吃的，我们人也可以吃，不过不太好吃，很少人吃，所以专门给马吃。 |
| 5. | If we know how to play the silver cord , we can make it generate beautiful sounds to make us happy , nourish our souls , and take us back to our real home
国王那时很爱他的马，好喜欢在那里照顾它，又被人一直来烦，一直要托钵都不走。他说：你走嘛！ |
| 6. | If we cultivate this silver cord and keep it from dying , then we can be immortal and will always have sound and light to nourish our souls , comfort our hearts , and make us joyful
不敬天不敬地的，都不修行，没有像以前一样有道德，他好像着魔了！他现在变成很坏的人，修邪道等等。 |
| 7. | When they were alive , even though they did not know how to play the silver cord , they had it anyway , and their souls knew that there was still hope . for example , i have a mandolin
难得有一个和尚来托钵，我看他很可怜，衣服都破了，没有东西吃，好瘦好苦又老，我怎么没有照顾好他没有给他东西吃！ |
| 8. | Quan yin practitioners are very happy at the time of death , knowing in advance when they will die ; the silver cord remains unsevered , continuously generating pleasant and nourishing sounds for their souls , taking them anywhere and then bringing them back
因为那边的人比较少，他回去打坐时看到一座山只减了一半，还有半座山的马苹果。他又跑到师父那边哭了！ |
| 9. | It is not good enough to be fully functional . most people go through a lot of suffering after they die , because there is no sound from this silver cord and there is no hope . those who are initiated are different
他依照这样子做，喝一点点假酒，然后胡言乱语，跑来跑去抓这个女儿拉那个女儿，让他们认为是他的女朋友，他整天在整个城里跑来跑去，像疯癫的人一样。 |
| 10. | We do not know when we will have enough blessed rewards to become a human being and have this silver cord again . animals do not have it , so they do not have the inner music . well , they do have this cord , but theirs is too tiny to be played
明天你跟女儿出去，把一个透明的酒瓶放入红色的水在里面，假装喝酒，然后讲话乱七八糟，跟疯疯癫癫的人一样，这样跟公主跑来跑去，带二三个女儿一起去，人家看到就会讲闲话，对你讲不好的事，这样子你的业障会消除。 |
