妙法蓮華經玄義 2.63

2.63

降此已外，若更作者，絕何物？顯何理？流浪無窮，則墮戲論。乃是迷情分別，絕待不絕，非絕非待待於亦待亦絕，言語相逐，永無絕矣！何者？言語從覺觀生，心慮不息，語何由絕？如癡犬逐塊，徒自疲勞，塊終不絕。若能妙悟寰中，息覺觀風，心水澄清，言思皆絕。如黠師子放塊逐人，塊本既除，塊則絕矣！

Apart from this, if one were to construct anything further, what would be cut off? What principle would be revealed? Wandering endlessly, one would fall into conceptual proliferation. That would be the discrimination of deluded feelings, where cutting off relativity is not cut off, and non-cutting off and non-relativity would stand relative to both-relativity and both-cutting off, with words pursuing words, never coming to an end! Why? Words arise from initial thought and sustained thought; if the mind's cogitation does not cease, how can words ever be cut off? It is like a foolish dog chasing a clod: tiring itself in vain, the clods never end. If one can subtly awaken within the realm [of truth], calming the wind of initial and sustained thought, the water of the mind becomes clear and calm, and both words and thoughts are cut off. It is like a clever lion abandoning the clod to chase the person: once the source of the clods is eliminated, the clods are cut off!
