§59 观作瓶喻
(59) watching urn making
譬如二人至陶师所，观其蹋轮而作瓦瓶，看无餍足。一人舍去，往至大会，极得美膳，又获珍宝。一人观瓶，而作是言：“待我看讫。”
once two men went to a potter's field where they watched a tread-wheel making earns. they were delighted at seeing the work without satiety. one then left for the great assembly where he was well received with excellent food and got precious teachings as well. the other stayed on at the plant and said, "i'll get a good look at how urns are made."
如是渐冉，乃至日没，观瓶不已，失于衣食。
thus he stayed till the sun set without realizing how hungry he really was or how chilly it had gotten.
愚人亦尔，修理家务，不觉非常。
so are the stupid who engage themselves in their housework without being aware that all things are subject to change.
今日营此事，明日造彼业。
people are inclined to be very fickle nowadays.
诸佛大龙出，雷音遍世间。
