Carrying forward the Buddha dharma is a very urgent work today. That is Tripitaka is able to be translated into straightway words. The more straightway, the better. If the language barrier is not rooted out, people will think that Buddhism is too profound and will keep a lot of people out. The consequences this barrier brings will make not only Buddhist disciples but also lay Buddhists feel wronged. (From Records of Chan by Shi Yongxin)
