Notes

The title means something like this: The meaning of the word “ocean” is vastness and depth, permeating the human world; the meaning of the word “tide” is that which responds to the times, and it refers to the intellectual trends (思潮) of the day; the meaning of the word “sound” are the writings that proclaim the teachings, and promulgate dharma. Thus HCY must adapt to the sea of humanity, and, adapting to the flow of the times, raise its voice. (rough translation).
