十、鑒動靜者,謂塵隨風飄颻,是動;寂然不起,是靜。今靜時由動不滅,即全以動成靜也;今動時由靜不滅,即全以靜成動也。由全體相成,是故動時正靜、靜時正動,亦如風本不動,能動諸物。若先有動,則失自體,不復更動,思之。
Tenth, discerning movement and stillness: When a dust mote flutters with the wind, this is movement; when it is quiet and unmoving, this is stillness. Now, at the time of stillness, because movement is not destroyed, it entirely uses movement to accomplish stillness; now, at the time of movement, because stillness is not destroyed, it entirely uses stillness to accomplish movement. Because the entire essence mutually accomplishes [them], the time of movement is precisely stillness, and the time of stillness is precisely movement. It is also like the wind: originally without movement, it can move all things. If it possessed movement beforehand, it would lose its own essence and could no longer move anything. Contemplate this.
